23:47 UTC

Intraday downtrend, lower highs · RSI 38 · price 4,115.29

Lower highs from 4155.49 and 4131.77; late-NY range floor lost, pressing the day low.

The NY-hours spike to the 4155.49 rebound high on US-Iran headlines has fully unwound, with oil-driven inflation fears weighing on gold despite a softer dollar. Early Asia printed a rejection at the 4131.77 session high and slipped below the 4117.47 ny range low, leaving price just above the 4111.68 day low. RSI(14) is near 38, with no oversold reading yet.

Support: 4,111.68, 4,100.00

Resistance: 4,117.47, 4,131.77, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 4111.68 day low extends the lower-low sequence and opens the 4100 round number
  • Reclaim of the 4117.47 ny range low puts price back inside the late-NY range and neutralises the breakdown
  • Close above the lower-highs trendline and the 4131.77 session high breaks the lower-high sequence
  • US-Iran and Hormuz headlines driving oil remain the main swing factor in thin Asia trading

23:32 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs off NY spike · RSI 38 · price 4,115.93

Lower highs from 4155.49, broke below late-NY range floor, early Asia probing day low.

The NY spike to 4155.49 was rejected and fully unwound, and the early Asia session put in a lower high at 4131.77 before slipping under the 4117.47 NY low that capped the late-NY range. Price now sits just above the 4114.76 Asian low and the 4111.68 day low, with gold heavy despite softer yields and USD as global rate-hike headwinds weigh. RSI(14) near 38 is soft but not stretched.

Support: 4,114.76, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,117.47, 4,131.77, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 4111.68 day low would extend the lower-low sequence
  • Recovery back above the 4117.47 NY low puts price back inside the late-NY range and undercuts the range break
  • Lower highs line from 4155.49 through 4131.77 caps rebounds; a break above the 4131.77 Asian high invalidates the sequence
  • US jobless claims Thu 12:30 UTC and PMIs Fri 13:45 UTC are the next scheduled catalysts for gold

23:17 UTC

Intraday downtrend, lower highs off the NY spike · RSI 40 · price 4,118.27

NY spike above the Asian range high failed; lower highs pressing the swing low.

Early Asia session after the daily reopen. The NY spike to the 4155.49 ny high briefly cleared the 4147 Asian range high, then fully faded as global-tightening headwinds capped the oil-driven bounce, leaving lower highs into the 4131.77 reopen high. Price is about 85% through the ny spike retrace and pressing the 4117.47 swing low, with RSI(14) near 40 and the 4111.68 day low below.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,131.77, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 4117.47 swing low exposes the 4111.68 day low, the London base and the digest's $4,111 reference
  • Failure to hold the 4111.68 day low extends the lower-low sequence beyond the full ny spike retrace
  • Recovery above the 4131.77 reopen high breaks the lower highs line from the 4155.49 ny high
  • US-Iran / oil headlines during thin Asia hours could materially shift this read ahead of Thu 12:30 UTC jobless claims

23:03 UTC

Intraday down-drift after failed NY spike · RSI 44 · price 4,120.17

Lower highs inside 4111–4155 day range.

The NY rally from 4112 to the 4155.49 NY high has almost fully unwound. The ny rally fib shows price near the 78.6% retracement, and the early Asia session high at 4131.77 has already been rejected back to 4120. Gold failing to hold gains despite softer yields and USD leaves the 4117.47 NY low and 4111.68 day low as the nearby floor, with lower highs capping above.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,131.77, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 4117.47 ny low exposes the 4111.68 day low
  • M15 close above the 4131.77 asia high breaks the lower-highs sequence
  • No USD data in the next 8h; US-Iran and oil headlines are the main swing risk this session

22:47 UTC

Sideways after failed NY spike, mildly heavy · RSI 45 · price 4,122.24

Compressed 4117–4127 range below the faded NY spike high.

The NY spike to 4155.49 (ny spike hi) cleared the prior Asian high but faded fully to the 4117.47 swing low. Gold has stayed heavy despite softer yields and USD. Early Asia saw a poke to 4131.77 (asia high) rejected back into the 4117–4127 range, with price sitting just below the range top and still shy of the 4111.68 day low; the move barely registers on the ny fade fib.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,127.00, 4,131.77, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 4131.77 asia high breaks the range read and brings the ny fade fib 38.2% near 4132 into play
  • Failure to hold the 4117.47 swing low exposes the 4111.68 day low
  • Repeated rejection at the 4127 range top keeps the compression intact through Asia
  • US-Iran / oil headlines remain the main intraday swing factor; Thu jobless claims (12:30 UTC) is the next scheduled US risk

22:32 UTC

Rangebound, early-Asia bounce · RSI 59 · price 4,130.64

Recovery off 4117 base inside 4111.68–4155.49 day range.

The NY spike after soft US housing data reached 4155.49, briefly reclaiming 4150 before rejection, and faded to a 4117.47 NY low despite softer yields and USD. The Asia open has lifted price off that base to a 4131.77 session high, near the 38.2% retrace of the NY fade, with the Asia open low at 4125.40 below.

Support: 4,125.40, 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,131.77, 4,136.48, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4131.77 session high and the 50% fib at 4136.48 extends the Asia bounce toward the 4150 area and the 4155.49 NY high
  • Slip back below the 4125.40 open low returns price to the 4117–4119 base
  • Loss of the 4117.47 NY low reopens the 4111.68 day low
  • US-Iran and oil headlines can move price in thin Asia hours ahead of Thu jobless claims

22:17 UTC

Sideways after failed NY spike, slight upward drift · RSI 54 · price 4,127.02

Tight 4117–4128 range under a faded NY spike high.

Gold made a NY-hours spike to the 4155.49 session high on the softer-USD housing data. It then faded fully, a false break above the Asian high that fits the digest's weak dip-buying read, and has ranged between the 4117.5 NY low and 4128 into the new Asia session. Price is pressing the range top with RSI(14) near 54. The London low at 4111.68 remains the day low.

Support: 4,117.50, 4,111.70

Resistance: 4,128.00, 4,136.50, 4,155.50

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4128 range top opens the 50% fib of the NY fade at 4136.5
  • Failure to hold the 4117.5 NY low exposes the 4111.7 day low
  • Rejection at the range top keeps the range read intact; a reclaim of the 4155.5 session high would negate the false-break read
  • US-Iran / oil headlines can move gold outside the range before Thu jobless claims at 12:30 UTC

22:03 UTC

Sideways after failed NY spike · RSI 52 · price 4,125.27

Tight 4117–4127 range below the faded session high.

Late NY hours, gold is boxed between the 4117.5 range low and the 4127 range top. The 14:15 UTC spike above the asian high to a 4155.5 session high fully faded, leaving a false break, while the London day low at 4111.7 held. The fade fits the digest's weak dip-buying theme despite softer yields and USD. Price is hugging both EMAs with RSI(14) flat near 52.

Support: 4,117.50, 4,111.70

Resistance: 4,127.00, 4,147.20, 4,155.50

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4127 range top opens the 38.2% retrace of the NY fade fib near 4132, with the asian high at 4147.2 above
  • Break of the 4117.5 range low exposes the 4111.7 day low; losing that extends the breakdown below the old range
  • Rejection again near the 4155.5 session high would confirm supply capping NY rallies
  • US-Iran headlines moving oil and yields are the main intraday shock risk; Thu claims at 12:30 UTC is the next scheduled event

21:47 UTC

Sideways after failed NY spike · RSI 52 · price 4,125.27

Tight 4117–4127 range under a rejected session high.

Gold spiked through the Asian high during NY hours to a 4155.49 day high. The move was fully reversed in a NY fade to 4117.47, consistent with the digest's read of weak follow-through despite softer USD and yields. Price has since compressed in a 4117–4127 range into the late NY session, holding just above EMA20 and pinned near EMA50.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,126.95, 4,147.21, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4127 range top opens the 4132–4136 zone (38.2–50% of the NY fade)
  • Failure to hold the 4117 swing low exposes the 4111.68 day low, tested three times today
  • Asian high at 4147 and day high at 4155 mark where the NY spike was rejected
  • US-Iran and oil headlines remain the main intraday swing factor for yields and gold

21:32 UTC

Sideways, momentum neutral after failed NY spike · RSI 51 · price 4,125.27

Tight 4117–4127 range in late NY, below the 4155 spike high.

The NY spike to the 4155.49 ny high around the housing data was fully rejected, and gold slid back to a 4117.47 range low by 17:00 UTC. Price has since compressed between 4117.47 and the 4126.95 range top into the end of NY, with RSI(14) flat near 51. The last bar is pressing the range top, while the London session low at 4111.68 still marks the floor.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,126.95, 4,132.00, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4126.95 range top opens the fib 38.2 at 4132.0 of the NY spike fade
  • Failure to hold the 4117.47 range low exposes the 4111.68 session low
  • Reclaim of the 4155.49 ny high would invalidate the failed-spike read
  • Asia session open after the daily break; thin liquidity can distort the range edges
  • US-Iran deal headlines via oil and yields could materially shift this read

21:17 UTC

Sideways after failed NY spike · RSI 51 · price 4,125.27

Tight late-NY range 4117–4127 below lower highs.

Gold held the 4111.68 session low three times during London and early NY. The oil-driven NY spike to 4155.49 cleared the Asian high, then faded hard into a 4117–4127 range, now near the 78.6% retrace of that move. Price is pressing the range top into the daily rollover, with a lower high at 4140.58 capping above.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,126.95, 4,140.58, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 4126.95 range top opens the 61.8% retrace near 4128 and the 4140.58 lower high
  • Failure to hold 4117.47 range low exposes the 4111.68 session low
  • Recovery through 4155.49 spike high would negate the false-break read
  • Daily rollover liquidity is thin; Thu Jobless Claims and Fri PMIs are the next scheduled USD risk

21:06 UTC

Sideways after failed NY spike, momentum flat · RSI 52 · price 4,125.27

Late-NY consolidation 4117–4127 below rejected Asian-high break.

London undercut the Asian low to a session low at 4111.68. NY then spiked through the 4147 Asian high to a 4155.49 NY high after the soft housing data, but the move was rejected and fully faded despite a softer USD. Since 17:00 UTC price has compressed between the 4117 range low and 4127 range top, which lines up with the 23.6% fib, and is now pressing the 50-EMA from below with RSI(14) neutral near 52.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,127.00, 4,147.21, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4127 range top opens the 38.2% fib near 4141, with the 4147 asian high above
  • Break of the 4117 range low exposes the 4111.68 session low, which also marks the digest's $4,111 intraday low
  • A failure back under 4155 ny high keeps the spike classed as a false break of the Asian range
  • US-Iran deal headlines and oil swings during the Asia session can break the compression; Thu jobless claims is the next scheduled US risk

20:47 UTC

Flat after failed NY spike · RSI 45 · price 4,122.47

Tight late-NY range below a fully retraced spike.

The NY spike high at 4155.49 on US-Iran deal headlines was a false break above the Asian high at 4147.21 and fully retraced. Price is now boxed between a 4117.47 range low and a 4126.95 range high into the NY close, with London's 4111.68 day low intact below. RSI(14) sits near 45 and EMA20/50 are overhead.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,126.95, 4,147.21, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 4117.47 range low exposes the 4111.68 day low; a break there marks a lower low on the session
  • Close above the 4126.95 range high reopens the 38.2–50% NY spike fib at 4132–4136
  • US-Iran / oil headlines during the Asia session can override the range read, as the NY spike showed

20:31 UTC

Post-spike fade, flat in late NY · RSI 46 · price 4,121.96

4117–4127 range after failed breakout.

Gold spiked from the 4111.68 day low through the Asian high to a 4155.49 spike high early in the NY session on the US-Iran proposal headline. The move was fully rejected, and price now sits near the 78.6% retracement at 4121. Late NY has compressed into a 4117–4127 range with RSI(14) neutral near 46 and price below both EMAs.

Resistance: 4,126.95, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • Break below the 4117.47 late ny low exposes the 4111.68 day low; failure there marks a range breakdown
  • M15 close above the 4126.95 range top and the 61.8% retracement near 4128 eases the fade read
  • Asia session reopen in ~1.5h brings thin liquidity; US-Iran or Hormuz headlines could reprice oil and yields quickly

20:17 UTC

Sideways, post-headline compression · RSI 50 · price 4,123.51

False break above Asian high reversed; tight late-NY range 4117–4127.

London broke below the 4115.8–4147.2 Asian range to the 4111.7 session low. The US-Iran proposal report then drove a NY spike high at 4155.5 above the Asian high, and the move was fully rejected. Late NY is compressing in a 4117–4127 range about 73% back into the headline spike, with price hugging EMA20 and RSI(14) near 50.

Lower highs since 4155 rejection, tight 4117–4127 band late NY.

The NY spike to the 4155.49 spike high on US-Iran diplomacy headlines was fully unwound, with price stepping down through lower highs into a 4117–4127 band in late NY. Price sits just above the 4117.47 ny low and the 4111.68 day low set during London, RSI(14) near 41 and ATR compressing.

Range after failed NY spike, drifting lower · RSI 43 · price 4,121.16

Compression 4117–4128 below lower high, inside Asian range.

The NY spike high at 4155.49 followed US-Iran deal headlines and soft housing data. It cleared the Asian high at 4147 but fully reversed, giving back nearly 80% of the 4111–4155 leg. Late NY is now compressing between the 4117 NY low and a 4128 lower high, with RSI(14) near 43 and price below both EMAs.

Late NY tight range 4117–4127 after full retrace of session high.

The NY spike on US-Iran diplomacy reports cleared the Asian high to a 4155.49 session high, but sellers absorbed it and the move fully retraced to a 4117.47 swing low. Late NY is now compressing between that low and a 4126.95 range top, with RSI(14) near 41, price under both EMAs and the 4111.68 day low below.

Two-way, fading back to the lows after a failed spike · RSI 40 · price 4,121.45

Post-spike range 4117–4127 in late NY, inside the Asian range.

US-Iran diplomacy headlines sent gold to a 4155.49 spike high above the Asian range top early in NY. The move was rejected and fully retraced, leaving a false break; price has since held a tight 4117–4127 band after London close, with the ny low at 4117.47 and the London session low at 4111.68 below.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,127.00, 4,155.49

  • A close above the 4127 range cap reopens 4134, the last lower high before the slide.
  • Oil and US-Iran headlines remain the swing factor; a confirmed deal or blockade escalation could break the range during Asia hours.
  • Reclaiming the 4155.49 spike high would negate the false-break read.

19:03 UTC

Two-way, post-spike fade · RSI 41 · price 4,125.73

NY spike rejected; tight late-NY range above day low.

The NY spike to the 4155.49 spike high on US-Iran diplomacy headlines, with oil and yields lower, cleared the 4147 Asian high but fully reversed. That leaves a false break above the London double-test of the 4111.68 day low. Late in the NY session, price is compressing between the 4117.47 NY low and a 4127 range top, which sits near the 61.8% retracement, with RSI(14) near 41 and price pinned to flat EMAs.

Intraday range, fading off NY spike · RSI 37 · price 4,122.45

Lower highs since 4155 spike high, compressing 4117-4127 in late NY.

The NY push on US-Iran diplomacy headlines and soft housing data briefly cleared the 4147.21 asian high. It was rejected at the 4155.49 spike high and has since retraced about 75% of the move off the 4111.68 day low. Late NY trade is compressing between the 4117.47 range low and 4126.95 range top, below both EMAs, with RSI(14) near 37.

Two-way, post-spike fade stalling · RSI 50 · price 4,125.43

Lower highs off 4155.49 spike, rising lows from 4111.68 day low.

The NY-session spike on US-Iran diplomacy headlines made a false break above the Asian high at 4147.21 to a 4155.49 spike high. A rejection there and a run of lower highs, including 4140.58, have retraced most of the leg from the 4111.68 day low. Late NY, price is coiling at 4120–4127 between the 61.8% fib and the ny low at 4117.47, just under flat EMA20/50, with RSI(14) neutral near 50 and rising lows from 4112.69 holding underneath.

Support: 4,117.47, 4,115.76, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,128.42, 4,140.58, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 61.8% fib at 4128.42 reopens the 4140.58 lower high, with the 4155.49 spike high above that
  • Break of the 4117.47 ny low and the rising lows line exposes the 4115.76 asian low and the 4111.68 day low
  • No scheduled US data in the next 8h; US-Iran and oil headlines moving yields are the main risk to this range read

18:17 UTC

Range, failed NY breakout · RSI 47 · price 4,125.43

Spike above Asian high rejected, lower highs since, holding above day low.

US-Iran diplomacy headlines drove a NY spike through the 4147.21 Asian high to a 4155.49 spike high, but supply capped it within two bars. Price has since retraced about 68% of the NY rally to 4125, printing lower highs into late NY. It now sits just under flat EMAs with RSI(14) neutral near 47, holding above the 4117.47 swing low and the 4111.68 day low.

Resistance: 4,127.98, 4,147.21, 4,155.49

What it said to watch

  • Close above the 4127.98 lower high breaks the post-spike sequence; the 4147.21 asian high sits overhead
  • Failure at the 4117.47 swing low and 4115.76 asian low exposes the 4111.68 day low, where London twice held

Intraday downtrend after a failed NY spike · RSI 43 · price 4,125.50

Lower highs from 4155.5; tight 4117–4126 base above the London day low.

The NY-open spike cleared the Asian high at 4147.2 and tagged a 4155.5 session high, then was fully rejected. Price faded back to a 4117.5 NY low as the oil and yield channel outweighed the weak US housing data. Late NY is basing at 4117–4126, below EMA20/50 with RSI(14) near 43, and the London day low at 4111.7 has held on three tests.

What it said to watch

  • Close below the 4111.7 day low breaks the triple-tested London floor and exposes 4100 psych
  • Failure to hold the 4117.5 NY low puts the day low back in play
  • Recapture of the 4135 ny shelf (38.2% of the NY fade fib) reopens the 4147.2 asian high

Intraday down, basing after spike fade · RSI 46 · price 4,123.40

Both sides of Asian range broken and rejected; price back inside, lower highs since spike.

London undercut the Asian low to a 4111.68 london low. NY's spike on the Pending Home Sales miss ran above the Asian high to a 4155.49 spike high, then faded fully, as the digest notes weak housing data failed to hold a bid. Price is now basing at 4117–4124 above the ny low, about 75% into the fib retracement of the london low to spike high move. It sits below both EMAs with RSI(14) neutral near 46.

Resistance: 4,128.40, 4,140.60

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 4111.7 london low exposes the 4100 psych level, flagged in the digest as the spec-long liquidation line
  • Failure to hold the 4117.5 ny low extends the lower-high sequence from the spike
  • Recovery through the fib 61.8 at 4128.4 and the 4140.6 lower high would neutralise the spike-fade read

Intraday range, heavy after failed NY spike · RSI 45 · price 4,123.86

False break above Asian high fully retraced; lower highs since 4155.

Weak US pending home sales triggered a NY spike through the asian high at 4147 to a 4155.49 spike high. The move then fully retraced, putting price back below the 61.8% level of the day-low-to-spike move and under both EMAs. Late NY session is holding just above the 4117 swing low, with the 4111.7 day low beneath and RSI(14) neutral near 45.

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the 4135 ny shelf would neutralise the post-spike lower-high sequence
  • Break of the 4111.7 day low exposes the 4100 psych level, which the digest flags for spec long-liquidation risk

Intraday downtrend after failed NY spike · RSI 43 · price 4,120.80

Lower highs from 4155.49 session high, holding above 4111.68 day low.

NY spiked through the Asian high at 4147.21 to a 4155.49 session high after the Pending Home Sales miss. The move then fully reversed as the oil-and-yield channel reasserted, printing a clean chain of lower highs down to the 4117.47 NY low. Price is now pinned between that low and the 4111.68 day low set in London, with RSI(14) near 43 and no extreme in play.

  • Failure to hold the 4117.47 NY low extends the lower-low sequence toward the 4111.68 day low
  • Break of the 4111.68 day low exposes the 4100 psych level, where the digest flags spec-long liquidation risk
  • Only a reclaim of the 4147.21 asian high and the 4155.49 session high negates the false break read

Downtrend from NY spike high, lower highs · RSI 42 · price 4,121.11

Failed NY breakout above Asian high, full fade back into London range.

NY hours saw a spike to 4155.49, a false break of the Asian high at 4147.21, as weak US housing data and a softer USD briefly lifted gold. Supply capped it, and the move has fully faded on lower highs, with price at 4121, near the 78.6% retrace of the 4111.68–4155.49 leg and just above the Asian low. Late NY session, after London close, the oil and yield channel still dominates.

  • Close back above the 4127.98 lower high breaks the lower-highs trendline from the spike high

Intraday range, spike fully faded · RSI 46 · price 4,123.69

Lower highs since NY spike top; holding above London base.

Early in the NY session, after the weak US housing data, gold ran from the 4111.7 session low through the 4147.2 Asian high to a 4155.5 session high. The move was rejected and has since fully faded. Late in NY, price is pressing the fib 78.6 at 4121.3 with a run of lower highs, RSI(14) neutral near 46, while the oil and yield channel keeps rallies capped.

Resistance: 4,128.40, 4,147.20, 4,155.50

What it said to watch

  • Close back above the fib 61.8 at 4128.4 eases the lower-high sequence
  • Failure at 4121.3 exposes the asian low 4115.8, then the 4111.7 session low, which London defended three times
  • Break of 4111.7 puts the $4,100 range floor in play, with liquidation risk flagged given heavy spec longs
  • Reclaim of the 4147.2 asian high would negate the false-break read toward the 4155.5 session high

Intraday downtrend after a failed NY spike · RSI 46 · price 4,124.26

Lower highs and lower lows since the 4155.49 NY high; testing the 78.6% fib.

London broke below the 4115.76–4147.21 Asian range and set the 4111.68 day low. In NY, the weak housing prints sparked a spike above the Asian high to 4155.49 that was fully unwound, consistent with the digest's read that oil and yields are dominating. Price is now carving lower highs and sits on the 4121.32 swing low near the 78.6% fib, with RSI(14) neutral around 46.

What it said to watch

  • Failure to hold the 4121.32 swing low exposes the 4111.68 day low
  • An M15 close above the 4127.74 lower high breaks the post-spike lower-high sequence and flags the 61.8% fib near 4128
  • A move toward psych 4100 brings the digest's spec-long liquidation risk into play
  • The asian high at 4147.21 and the ny spike hi at 4155.49 cap the session; reclaiming them would undo the false break read

Lower highs since NY spike; holding above London day low.

Gold spiked to 4155.49 in the NY session after the weak US housing prints, clearing the Asian high at 4146.79. It failed there and has since given back roughly 62% of the rally from the 4111.68 London day low. Price sits near 4127 under both EMAs, with RSI(14) neutral around 48 and a lower-high sequence from the spike high in place.

  • M15 close below the 4120.84 NY swing low exposes the 4111.68 day low and the $4,100 area flagged in the macro read
  • Reclaim of the 4140.58 lower high breaks the post-spike lower-high sequence and puts the 4146.79 Asian high back in play
  • Hold of the 61.8% retracement of the NY spike fib near 4128 vs a slide toward the 4120s

Choppy, spike fully faded · RSI 51 · price 4,130.85

Lower highs off 4155.49 spike, holding above 4130.

London broke the Asian low (4115.76) to a day low at 4111.68. NY then spiked through the Asian high to 4155.49 after the weak US housing prints, but the move faded straight back inside the range. Price is now sitting on EMA20 near 4130, between the 50% and 61.8% fib of the 4111.68–4155.49 leg, with a lower high at 4140.58 capping after London close.

  • Loss of the fade low at 4130.14 and the 61.8% fib near 4128 puts the day low at 4111.68 back in play
  • Break below the 4111.68 day low exposes the $4,100 psych level flagged in the digest
  • M15 close above the 4140.58 lower high breaks the lower-highs line and reopens the asian high at 4147.21, then the spike high

London broke the Asian low to a 4111.7 session low, then the NY session ripped through the 4147.2 Asian high to a 4155.5 spike high after weak US housing data. The move faded inside four bars as the oil and yield channel reasserted, and price is now pinned near the 50% of the NY spike fib around 4134, just above the 4130.7 pullback low.

  • M15 close below the 4130.7 pullback low (61.8% of the NY spike fib sits at ~4129.5) puts the 4111.7 session low back in play
  • Recapture and hold above the 4147.2 Asian high would negate the false break read; 4155.5 spike high caps above
  • Loss of the 4100 round number is the digest's flagged liquidation risk given ~208K net spec longs

Range-bound, NY spike fully faded · RSI 53 · price 4,133.62

False break above Asian high, now holding near 50% of London low–NY high leg.

After the weak US housing data, the NY session spiked from the London low at 4111.70 through the Asian high at 4147.20 to a 4155.50 NY high. The move was fully rejected, consistent with oil and yields still driving gold. Price now sits on the 50% fib of that leg near 4133.60, with a pullback low at 4132.70 and a lower high at 4140.60 framing the late London-NY transition, and RSI(14) neutral at 53.

  • M15 close below the 4132.70 pullback low exposes the 61.8% fib at 4128.40
  • Failure to hold the 4111.70 london low would break the intraday range and put the 4,100 area in play
  • Close above the 4140.60 lower high reopens the 4147.20 asian high; the 4155.50 ny high caps the session

Rising lows from the 4111.7 London low; false break above 4147 Asian high, back inside the range.

London set the day low at 4111.7 before NY pushed through the Asian high (4147.2) and the prior high (4150.4) to a 4155.5 session high, with USD softness behind the move after the housing misses. The spike was rejected within two bars, and the pullback swing low at 4136.9 sits at the 38.2% fib, holding the rising lows intact while price is back inside the Asian range.

Triple bottom at 4112, breakout rejected at 4155.5, back inside Asian range.

London set the session low at 4111.7 and two early-NY retests held, forming a triple bottom. A $22 breakout bar followed the weak Pending Home Sales print and cleared the 4147.2 Asian high, but rejection at the 4155.5 session high, the prior-day high area, has price back inside the Asian range near 4145, with the 4131 breakout base below.

Resistance: 4,147.20, 4,155.50

  • M15 close back above the 4147.2 Asian high reopens the 4155.5 session high; failure there keeps the rejection read intact
  • Loss of the 4131 breakout base, near the 50% fib at ~4133.6, puts the 4111.7 session low back in view
  • Renewed rise in US 10y yields or WTI above $99 has been the dominant drag and could unwind the NY spike

Triple bottom near 4112 resolved by NY breakout above the Asian high.

Gold held a triple bottom at the 4111.7 session low through London and early NY, despite oil and yield pressure in the digest. A $20 bar at 14:15 UTC lifted price off the 4131.3 surge base, through the 4147.2 Asian high and back above the $4,150 former range floor. The rally is now pressing the 4155.2 prior high with RSI(14) near 70.

Support: 4,147.20, 4,131.30, 4,111.70

Resistance: 4,155.20

  • M15 close above the 4155.2 prior high extends the rally beyond the window's range
  • Slip back below the 4147.2 asian high turns the breakout into a false break
  • Loss of the 4131.3 surge base and the rising lows trendline negates the reversal
  • WTI and Iran/Hormuz headlines can quickly reverse the $4,150 reclaim

Buyers defended the 4111.7–4113.7 day low three times through London and the 12:30 UTC Housing Starts miss. NY then cleared the 4127.2 range top, printing a higher low at 4120.8 and a ny high at 4134.3, right at the 61.8% retrace of the asian high-to-day low drop. Oil and yield pressure still frames the move as a bounce within a heavy tape.

London broke the asian low at 4115.8 but stalled at the 4111.7 london low, and repeated NY tests of 4112–4113 held. The 12:30 UTC Housing Starts miss sparked a bounce to a 4134.3 ny high, rejected near the 61.8% of the Asia-London drop, with oil-driven yield pressure keeping gold below the 4150 former range floor.

Lower highs from the Asia high; London range 4112–4127 broken higher in NY.

After rejecting the 4147 Asia high, gold carved a London range of 4112–4127, with a double bottom at the 4112 session low. Around the NY open, price closed above the 4127 range top and is now pressing the 4131 NY high, at the 50% fib of the Asia-high-to-session-low drop. A softer USD is cushioning a market still weighed by oil and yields.

London broke the Asian low at 4115.76 and set a 4111.68 session low. Since then gold has held a 4111.68–4127.17 range, and the NY open swings were rejected twice at the range top, just above the 38.2% fib retrace of the asian high-to-low move. Lower highs from the 4147.21 asian high define the descending trendline, while oil above $99 and firm yields keep gold heavy near the $4,100 round number.

  • Failure to hold the 4111.68 session low exposes the 4100 round number, where a sustained break would confirm the range breakdown

Lower highs from the 4147.21 Asian high through the 4136.68 London high keep gold in an intraday downtrend. Since mid-London, price has compressed in a 4111.68–4127.17 range, with the range top rejected four times, including the two-way swing around the 12:30 UTC housing data. Oil-driven yield pressure keeps price heavy near the session low as the NY session opens, with RSI(14) neutral in the mid-40s.

  • M15 close above the 4127.17 range top breaks the lower-high trendline and exposes the 4136.68 london high

Lower highs into a 4111.7–4127.2 range below the Asian range.

London broke below the Asian range low at 4115.76 to a session low of 4111.68, and gold has since held a 4111.7–4127.2 range. The lower-highs line from the Asian high still caps price. The 12:30 UTC Housing Starts miss whipsawed price across the range without a close outside it, with RSI(14) near 45 and price below both EMAs as higher yields keep gold heavy.

London broke the asian low at 4115.8 and set a day low at 4111.7. Since then price has compressed beneath a lower high at 4127.2, near the 38.2% retrace of the fib from the Asian high, and was rejected there going into NY. Oil-driven yield pressure keeps gold heavy, with price under both EMAs and RSI(14) near 44.

Resistance: 4,127.17, 4,136.68

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 4111.7 day low extends the lower-low chain toward the 4100 round number
  • M15 close above the 4127.2 lower high and the lower-highs trendline breaks the sequence and opens the 4136.7 swing high
  • Housing Starts/Permits at the NY open and Pending Home Sales 90 minutes later could break the range in either direction

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 41 · price 4,115.14

Lower highs below Asian range, retesting session low.

Gold has set lower highs at the Asian high 4147.21, the London open high 4136.68 and 4127.14, and London broke the Asian low near 4115.76 to print a session low at 4111.68. The bounce stalled near the 38.2-50% fib of the 4147–4111 leg and met rejection at the 4127 lower high, with price back near the session low as oil-driven yields keep pressure on the metal.

Resistance: 4,127.14, 4,136.68, 4,147.21

What it said to watch

  • US Housing Starts/Permits at 12:30 UTC, in the first hour of NY, could materially shift this read
  • A clean break below the 4111.68 session low extends the lower-low chain toward the 4100 round number
  • An M15 close above the 4127.14 lower high and the falling resistance line invalidates the lower-high sequence
  • Recovery through the london open high at 4136.68 would put the asian high at 4147.21 back in play

Downtrend, corrective bounce off session low · RSI 51 · price 4,124.55

Lower highs intact from Asian high; Asian low swept in London then reclaimed.

Gold extended its oil- and yield-led slide. London swept the asian low at 4115.76 and printed a session low at 4111.68 before buyers stepped in. The bounce stalled at 4127.14, the fib 61.8 of the london high-to-low drop, leaving the lower-high chain from the 4147.21 asian high intact, with RSI(14) neutral near 51.

Downtrend, rebound stalling · RSI 47 · price 4,120.42

Lower highs; Asian low swept in London, price back inside Asian range.

Gold extended its break of the $4,150 floor on firmer yields. London swept the asian low at 4115.76 to a 4111.68 session low, and the rebound high at 4124.81 stalled just under the 38.2% retracement of the Asian high–session low leg. The 4136.68 london high and the 4127.17 lower high keep the intraday sequence pointing down. Late London, price is pinned below EMA20 with RSI(14) near 47.

  • Failure to hold the 4111.68 session low turns the asian low sweep into a fresh lower low

Downtrend, early-London rebound underway · RSI 51 · price 4,123.90

Lower highs from 4147, Asian low swept then reclaimed.

London extended the Asian slide and swept the 4115.76 asian low to a 4111.68 session low before rebounding to 4124, forming a higher low at 4117.6. Price is now pressing the 38.2% fib near 4125 and the 4127.17 lower high, with the yield-driven selling since the 4150 floor gave way still framing the tape. RSI(14) is back to a neutral 51.

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4127.17 lower high breaks the lower-high chain and opens 4136.68 london high, then 4147.21 asian high
  • Failure to hold the 4117.6 higher low re-exposes the 4115.76 asian low and 4111.68 session low
  • ADP at 12:15 UTC, US housing starts and permits at 12:30 and pending home sales at 14:00 can nudge yields into the NY open

Downtrend, short-term bounce · RSI 47 · price 4,123.00

Lower highs since Asian high; London false break of Asian low.

Gold has printed lower highs from the 4146.79 Asian high as firmer yields weigh after Monday's break of the 4150 floor. London slipped below the 4115.76 Asian low to 4111.68 before recovering to 4123. Price is now pressing the descending trendline and the 38.2% fib near 4125 late in the London session, with RSI(14) neutral at 47.

Resistance: 4,127.17, 4,136.68, 4,146.79

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4127.17 lower high breaks the lower-high chain, with the 4136.68 swing high next
  • A slip back below the 4115.76 asian low reopens the 4111.68 london low
  • Rejection at the descending trendline / 38.2% fib keeps the downtrend sequence intact
  • Price remains well below the 4146.79 asian high, so the bounce is so far corrective
  • US ADP at 12:15 UTC and housing data at 12:30 UTC into the NY open could move yields and shift this read

Downtrend, momentum stalling · RSI 46 · price 4,120.82

Lower-high chain intact; Asian low reclaimed after London dip.

London extended the lower-high sequence from the 4147.21 Asian high. It broke the 4115.76 Asian low to a 4111.68 session low, then reclaimed it, and price is now pressing the descending trendline near 4121 with RSI(14) neutral at 46. Rebounding Treasury yields and firmer oil keep gold heavy after Monday's NY-open break below 4150.

Support: 4,115.76, 4,111.68

Resistance: 4,127.17, 4,136.68, 4,147.21

What it said to watch

  • A close back below the 4115.76 asian low turns the false break into lower-low continuation through the 4111.68 session low
  • Acceptance above the descending trendline and a close through the 4127.17 swing high (38.2–50% fib zone) would break the lower-high chain, with the 4136.68 london high next
  • The 4147.21 asian high, just under the 4150 prior range floor, is the cap on any wider rebound
  • US ADP 4-week avg (12:15 UTC) and Housing Starts/Permits (12:30 UTC) ahead of NY open could shift the read via yields

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 41 · price 4,121.12

Lower-high chain from the Asian high; brief break below the Asian low reversed.

Mid-London, gold has printed lower highs from the 4147.21 Asian high through the 4136.68 London high and 4127.17 as rebounding yields and oil weigh. The push below the 4115.76 Asian low to a 4111.68 session low has not held, and price is back near 4121 at the descending lower-highs line, with RSI(14) near 41.

  • Renewed closes below the 4115.76 asian low and 4111.68 session low turn the false break into a fresh lower-low

Gold extended its Asian-session slide in London, dipping below the 4115.76 Asian low to a 4111.68 session low before reclaiming 4118, with RSI(14) near 44. Lower highs at 4147.21, the 4136.68 London high and 4127.17 define a descending trendline near 4122, consistent with rebounding US yields weighing on the metal.

  • Failure to hold the 4111.68 session low confirms a fresh lower-low, with the 4100 round number next below

London extended the decline from the 4147.21 Asian high, capping at lower highs of 4136.68 (london high at the open) and 4127.17 before breaking the asian low at 4115.76 to a 4111.68 session low. Firmer US yields and WTI near $99 are keeping pressure on gold. RSI(14) at 34 is soft but not stretched.

Descending highs 4147→4137→4127 over flat lows ~4115.5.

Gold is heavy as US yields rebound. The London open saw a rejection at the 4136.7 london high, below the 4147.2 asian high, and each bounce since has stalled lower. Price is now pressing a flat base at the 4115.5 session low, which only marginally undercut the Asian low and held, with RSI(14) near 39 and not stretched.

Resistance: 4,127.20, 4,136.70, 4,147.20

  • M15 close above the 4127.2 lower high breaks the descending trendline and puts the 4136.7 london high back in play
  • Asian high at 4147.2 caps the session range; reclaiming it negates the intraday downtrend

Since then, lower highs at 4136.68 (london high) and 4126.94 have pressed price onto the 4118 london low for a third test as 10y yields near 5.14% and $99 WTI weigh.

Gold printed lower highs from the 4147.21 Asian high to the 4136.68 London high an hour into London. Each bounce has stalled on the descending lower-highs line as the 10y yield rebound to ~5.14% weighs. The 4116–4118 floor (asian low / london low) has absorbed three tests.

Gold was capped at the 4147.2 asian high, then rejected at 4136.7 in the first hour of the London session. That lower high sits on the 61.8% fib of the Asian-high-to-London-low drop, and price is back near 4125 under both EMAs. Rising US yields (10y ~5.14%) and $99 WTI keep pressure on bullion, while the 4116-4118 floor (asian low and london low) has held three times.

Asia printed a 4115.8 asian low, rebounded to the 4147.2 asian high, then rolled over to a 4118.6 swing low. The first hour of London was rejected at the 4136.7 london high, which lines up with the 61.8% fib and yesterday's NY low, and price is back near 4122 with rebounding US yields still the driver. RSI(14) is near 36, so momentum is soft but not oversold.

  • A reclaim of the 4147.2 asian high and the 4150 range floor neutralises the intraday downtrend read

Gold slid in late Asia from the 4147.2 Asian high to a 4118.6 swing low, just above the 4115.8 Asian low, as firmer yields and oil keep pressure on bullion below the old 4150 range floor. The early London bounce stalled at 4136.6, where the prev day low and the 61.8% retracement of the Asia drop meet, extending the lower-high sequence. Price sits below EMA20 with RSI(14) near 40.

Lower highs inside the Asian range, London opened with a rejection.

London opened with a rejection at the 4136.7 london high, the 61.8% retrace of the pre-London drop. That keeps gold mid Asian range (4115.76–4147.21) and preserves the lower-high chain from Monday's 4190 peak. Rebounding yields keep price under the former 4150 range floor; the 4118.6 intraday low held above the asian low.

Gold enters the London open back inside the Asian range after a second test of the 4115.8–4118.6 lows held. The rebound is stalling at 4136.6, Monday's NY low and the 61.8% retracement of the Asian drop, with yield-driven selling since Monday's 12:30 UTC break below the 4150 range floor still framing structure.

Gold extended Monday's slide as yields rebounded (10y ~5.14%, WTI above $99), keeping a lower-high chain from 4190 intact and carving a 4115.76–4147.21 Asian range. A second leg down met demand at 4118.61, just above the session low, and rebounded to 4134. Price sits near 4131, about a 45% retracement of the Asian swing, into London open with RSI(14) neutral at 51.

A second probe of the asian low was rejected at 4118.61, a higher low, and the bounce has stalled near the 38.2% retrace of the drop from the asian high. Into the London open, RSI(14) sits near 41 with price below both EMAs.

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 4118.61 higher low and 4115.76 asian low extends Monday's lower-low sequence

Downtrend, retesting overnight low · RSI 31 · price 4,119.30

Lower highs from 4190; Asian bounce fully retraced to the 4115.76 low.

Late Asia session gave back the whole overnight bounce. Price slid from the 4147.21 Asian high to retest the 4115.76 Asian low ahead of London open, extending the lower-highs sequence from Monday's 4190 peak as 10y yields near 5.14% cap gold. RSI(14) near 31 is soft but not yet oversold, and the 4131.5 broken lows now sit overhead.

Asian bounce capped at lower high, retesting Asia low.

The lower-high chain from Monday's 4190.31 London high is intact. The Asian bounce off the 4115.76 asia low stalled at 4147.21, the asia high and near the 38.2% fib, and has been almost fully retraced in the hour before London open. Price sits below the former monday low at 4136.6 with RSI(14) near 39, as 5%+ 10y yields and firmer oil cap gold.

Lower high at 4147 under 4149, testing 4129 swing low.

Monday's NY-session slide, driven by oil lifting the 10y yield to 5.144%, extended to an Asian low of 4115.76. The rebound was rejected at the 4147.21 Asian high, just under last evening's 4148.70 peak, and has retraced about 50% to 4131. Late Asia ahead of London open, price is below EMA20/50 with RSI(14) near 40, sitting on the 4129 swing low.

Lower high at 4147.21 after V-recovery from the Asian low.

Asia ran through the monday low at 4136.6 to 4115.76, then V-recovered to the asian high at 4147.21, where it met rejection. Price has since given back about half that move and sits on the 50% fib near 4131.5 with 90 minutes to London open. Monday's oil-driven yield rise to 5.14% is still weighing on the tape.

Intraday downtrend, Asian rebound fading · RSI 46 · price 4,136.86

Lower highs from 4190 to 4147; Asian range 4115.76–4147.21 intact.

The NY-open drop through 4150 on Monday, as 10y yields hit 5.14% and the USD firmed, set the lower-high sequence. Asia dipped to the 4115.76 session low and rebounded, but the Asia rebound stalled under the 4147 Asian high, and the last two bars have slipped back to the 38.2% fib near 4135. RSI(14) is around 46 with price below EMA20/EMA50 heading into London open.

V-rebound from the Asia low, now compressing 4141–4147 on flattening highs.

Gold lost the 4150 range floor during Monday NY on firmer yields and oil. Asia then swept to 4115.8, the Asia low, before a V-shaped recovery to a 4147.2 session high, with a higher low at 4141.4 and the 4132.0 swing low beneath. Late Asia is compressing just under 4150 ahead of London open, RSI(14) near 61.

V-shaped Asia rebound, higher lows capped under 4147–4150.

Asia flushed below Monday's NY low to 4115.76, then rebounded in a V back into Monday's late consolidation. Price is now compressing under the 4147.21 Asian high, just shy of the 4150 range floor that gave way on Monday's yield and oil-driven slide. The 4132.0 higher low, near the fib 50%, marks the base of the rebound, with RSI(14) near 62.

Intraday recovery after Asia sweep, momentum flattening · RSI 57 · price 4,144.50

V-shaped reversal from Asia low; higher-low chain now compressing under the Asia high.

The early-Asia drop, extending the yield- and oil-driven slide, broke below yesterday's NY low at 4136.6 to 4115.8, then reversed and reclaimed that level. The recovery has built a higher-low chain off the rising line from the Asia low, and price is now stalling just under the Asia high at 4147.2. That sits at the 38.2% retrace of the 4190–4116 drop and just below the 4150 range floor; RSI(14) is near 57 and bar ranges are narrowing into the London open.

  • Break of the 4138.1 higher low and the rising line from the Asia low ends the recovery structure

Higher lows off 4115.76 inside a broader lower-high sequence.

Gold lost the 4150 range floor during NY yesterday as yields and oil pushed higher. Asia then broke below the prior-day low to a 4115.76 asia low before a false break and rebound to a 4146.79 asia high, reclaiming the 4140 breakout lvl with a 4132 higher low. Late in the Asia session price is compressing just under 4150, RSI(14) near 58, with 38.2% of the asia rebound fib at 4135.

  • Slip back under the 4140 breakout lvl puts the rebound at risk of fading into the prior downtrend
  • London open in ~3h is the first test of the asia high at 4146.79

Higher lows off the 4115.76 Asian low, pressing the broken 4150 range floor.

Gold lost the 4150 range floor during NY on firmer yields and oil. The late-Asia push under 4130 failed at the 4115.76 Asian low, and higher lows have since carried price to 4146, a 38.2% retrace of Monday's 4190–4116 decline. Price is now retesting the 4150 area from below, with RSI(14) near 61 and ATR around $6.4.

Monday's NY open broke the 4150 range floor as 5.14% 10y yields and $99 oil firmed USD. Asia swept lower to the 4115.76 Asian low, then rebounded about 30 dollars in a higher-low chain along the Asia uptrend line. Price is now pressing a 4146.6 session high just under the old range floor, with RSI(14) near 59 and above both EMAs.

Monday's London/NY sell-off broke the 4150 range floor as 10y yields pushed above 5.1% and oil firmed. Late Asia extended to a 4115.76 asia low before a V-shaped rebound, which has met rejection twice at the 4140.24 rebound high, just under the EMA50, with a pullback low at 4132.5 and a higher low at 4126.1 below.

A late-Asia flush to the 4115.8 session low V-bounced but met rejection at 4140.2, just above the prior low at 4136.6.

  • Failure to hold the 4130.03 session low extends the lower-low sequence
  • Reclaim of the 4150 range floor would turn Monday's break into a false break
  • Yield/oil moves and US housing data from 12:30 UTC could shift this read

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 42 · price 4,137.41

LH/LL chain from 4190 London-open high; early Asia printed a new low at 4131.46, small bounce in progress.

Gold has carried lower highs since the 4190 London-open high, breaking the 4150 range floor during NY hours as firmer yields and oil weighed. Early Asia extended the drop to a 4131.46 session low, and the latest bar is back above Monday's 4136.6 prior low. The Asian range of 4131–4143 is still developing, with RSI(14) near 42 and price below both EMAs.

Support: 4,136.60, 4,131.46

Resistance: 4,142.92, 4,150.00

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 4142.92 asia high breaks the lower-highs line and opens a retest of the 4150 range floor
  • Failure to hold 4131.46 session low extends the lower-low chain
  • Slipping back below the 4136.6 prior low keeps the bounce contained
  • US ADP and housing data at 12:15–12:30 UTC could materially shift this read via yields

Downtrend, lower highs and lower lows intact · RSI 37 · price 4,134.98

London rejection at 4190, NY breakdown below 4150 range floor, Asia grinding to fresh lows.

London capped at the 4190.31 session high. The NY open then broke the 4150 range floor, and price extended to a 4131.46 Asia low as oil-led yield gains weighed on gold. The lower-high chain is intact, and the prior low at 4136.60 now caps price. RSI(14) near 37 is soft but not oversold.

Support: 4,131.46, 4,100.00

Resistance: 4,136.60, 4,142.92, 4,150.00

What it said to watch

  • A close back above the 4136.60 prior low and the 4142.92 asia high would stall the lower-low sequence
  • A break of the 4131.46 asia low extends the chain toward the 4100 psych zone flagged in the macro digest
  • Only a reclaim of the 4150 range floor negates the breakdown and the lower highs trendline
  • US ADP and housing data (12:15–12:30 UTC) during the NY session could shift the yield-driven read
