Gold is pausing — and that’s not a weakness. After surging more than 2.5% during the Asian session, Gold printed fresh highs near 5081.25. However, into these highs, the chart is signalling fatigue rather than acceleration. Bullish candles are shrinking, volume is tapering, and price has stretched into overbought territory. From a technical perspective, price is testing the upper Bollinger Band while RSI remains above 70 and begins to curl lower. A hidden bearish divergence on the 1H timeframe further supports the case for a healthy correction. A pullback towards the 5000–4950 zone looks technically justified — this region aligns with prior resistance turned support and a 1H inefficiency (iFVG). If buyers defend this zone, the broader bullish structure remains intact, with upside potential reopening towards the 5100–5170 region. This appears to be cooling momentum, not trend failure. Patience and confirmation around support will define the next high-probability move. #XAU/USD# #gold# #GOLDTODAY# #analysis#
