This suggests that while gold may be experiencing some near-term resilience, it still faces headwinds in the broader context.
As we look ahead to the next trading session, the high and low prices of today's range, $4208.76 and $4180.21, respectively, may serve as key reference zones. These levels could potentially influence the price action in the coming days, as market participants react to these psychological barriers.
