The recent decline established a sequence of lower highs on the H4 timeframe, confirming sustained bearish pressure. However, the latest rebound from the <strong>$4,550\u2013$4,600<\/strong> zone suggests the presence of short-term demand.<\/p>\n<p>Price is attempting to recover, but the structure has not yet shifted decisively bullish on higher timeframes.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Key Resistance Zone<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The nearest resistance is located at <strong>$4,720 \u2013 $4,780<\/strong>, where recent recovery attempts have stalled.<\/p>\n<p>Additional resistance levels:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$4,850 \u2013 $4,900<\/strong> (H4 supply zone)<\/li>\n<li><strong>$5,000+<\/strong> (major psychological resistance)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As long as price remains below <strong>$4,780<\/strong>, bearish pressure is likely to persist.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Key Support Zone<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Immediate support lies at <strong>$4,600 \u2013 $4,650<\/strong>, where buyers recently stepped in.<\/p>\n<p>A breakdown below this zone would expose further downside targets:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$4,550<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>$4,450 \u2013 $4,500<\/strong> (major structural support)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A sustained move below <strong>$4,450<\/strong> would confirm continuation of the broader corrective decline.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Expectations<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Bearish Scenario (Primary)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The structure remains tilted to the downside while price trades below <strong>$4,780<\/strong>.<br \/>\nA break below <strong>$4,600<\/strong> would likely trigger further selling toward <strong>$4,550<\/strong>, with potential extension toward <strong>$4,450<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bullish Scenario (Alternative)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A recovery above <strong>$4,780<\/strong> would signal short-term strength, opening the door toward:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$4,850 \u2013 $4,900<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>$5,000+<\/strong> if momentum strengthens<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, a broader reversal requires reclaiming higher timeframe structure.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Outlook<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Gold remains under <strong>moderate bearish pressure<\/strong>, with price currently attempting a short-term recovery after a sharp sell-off.
