Gold and silver prices look vulnerable as seasonal summer weakness kicks in - DeCarley Trading's Carley Garner

- The gold market has shown resilience with prices holding critical support around $1,950 an ounce even as the Federal Reserve is expected to maintain a tight grip on its monetary policy; however, despite the relative buoyancy in the marketplace, one strategist said that now is not the time.

"If we break below support at $1,950, we could see prices fall significantly lower," she said."There is not much holding up the market before $1,880. It's a big air gap lower. If you are bullish and you want to start building a position now, you should only nibble at the market, not load up."Garner said that investors looking to play the market might want to buy weekly options.

Along with seasonal factors, Garner said that the Federal Reserve's monetary policy stance continues to keep investors out of the gold market. Although markets are priced in for the central bank to hold interest rates unchanged next week, there are still expectations that rates will go higher before the summer is done.
