🔎 Market drivers
The stronger U.S. dollar and elevated Treasury yields are currently weighing on gold, while expectations for further Fed tightening are adding pressure. (FXStreet)

If XAU/USD breaks and holds above $4,318, the next areas to watch are approximately $4,338 → $4,356, followed by higher resistance around $4,400.
🔴 Bearish scenario
If price repeatedly fails around $4,300–$4,318 and breaks below $4,244, downside levels around $4,200 and $4,160 become relevant.
Trading note: Rather than entering simply because price reaches a level, wait for confirmation such as a candle close/retest. These are market levels, not guaranteed targets.
