Short term - Technical Outlook
Gold futures are currently trading near 143,344, showing a marginally positive candle after opening at 143,235 and edging toward the session high of 143,475. The prior sessions delivered a sharp recovery from the lows near 141,620, with a sequence of green candles reclaiming the 142,470–143,340 zone and pushing price back toward the current level. The current candle reflects continued consolidation within the 142,960–143,740 band, with price holding above the key support while facing the overhead resistance zone.
The broader structure has improved modestly from the recent lows, with the recovery establishing a short-term higher low pattern. However, the overhead resistance at 143,740–144,450 continues to limit upside progress, and the candle sequence near this zone shows limited follow-through from buyers. A sustained close above 144,450 would confirm the recovery has momentum and open the path toward 145,950 and higher, while a break below 142,960 would signal the recovery has failed and invite renewed selling pressure toward 141,460 and lower.
On the downside, immediate support lies near 142,960–142,470, followed by deeper structural demand at 141,620. A clear break below 142,960 would confirm the bearish structure has reasserted and expose the 141,460 zone and below, though the current candle's positive tone and the prior recovery candle sequence suggest buyers maintain short-term control above 142,960.
