Gold is at $4,457.71 and flashing red. After topping near $5,550 in March, it’s been printing lower highs. The chart now projects a drop to $3,500.79.
Chart Breakdown:
Trend Reversal: Gold ran from $3,340 in Aug to $5,550 in March = +66%. Since March, it made 3 lower highs. Uptrend broken.
Current Level: $4,457.71, sitting on key support. Lost the $4,750-$4,900 demand zone in May.
Projected Path: Red arrow shows bounce to ∼$4,350, then leg down to $3,850 zone, final target $3,500.79.
Support Levels: $4,050 is first minor support. $3,850 is major level from Nov breakout. $3,500 is 2025 base.
Key Info for Traders:
Lower High Structure: March $5,550 → April $4,900 → May $4,700. Sellers stepping in earlier each time. Momentum shifting bearish.
$4,457 Must Hold: This is last defense before $4,050. Daily close below $4,400 opens path to $3,850 = -13.6% move.
$3,500 Magnet: That’s the Sept-Nov 2025 launchpad. -21.5% from here. Markets often retest breakout origins. High probability target if breakdown accelerates.
Risk Context: Gold ATH was $5,550. Drop to $3,500 = -37% correction. Not impossible in macro downtrends.
Takeaway:
Gold bears control below $4,700. If $4,457 fails, expect $4,050 then $3,850 fast. $3,500 is extended target but lines up with major support. Bulls need to reclaim $4,750 to flip bias.
