Today Technical Analysis: Gold continues its decline and falls below $4,000 as the Dollar sees renewed strength

Gold Technical Analysis

Gold has resumed its short-term downtrend after failing to sustain the recent recovery. Price is trading below the 5, 10, and 20-period moving averages, confirming that sellers remain firmly in control.

After rebounding from the $3,942 support, gold encountered strong selling pressure around the $4,030–$4,040 resistance area. The rejection from this zone has resulted in another series of lower highs and lower lows, with price now approaching the recent lows once again.

Although selling momentum has moderated slightly, buyers have yet to demonstrate enough strength to reverse the trend.

The short-term outlook remains bearish while gold trades below $4,000–$4,025. A break below $3,963 would confirm renewed selling pressure and increase the probability of a retest of $3,942, with scope for further downside if that support fails. To improve the technical picture, buyers would need to reclaim $4,025 and establish sustained trading above the 20-period moving average.

Brent Technical Analysis

Brent crude remains under bearish pressure despite stabilising after last week’s decline. Price continues to trade below the 20-period moving average, while the 5 and 10-period moving averages remain beneath the longer-term trend line, confirming that sellers still have the technical advantage.

The recent recovery attempts have lacked follow-through, indicating weak buying interest.

Following the rebound from $71.63, Brent briefly recovered toward $74.50 before sellers regained control. Price has since rolled over and is once again drifting lower toward the $72.70 area.

The short-term bias remains bearish while Brent trades below $73.30–$73.50. A sustained move below $72.67 would likely trigger another test of the $71.63 support. Conversely, a break above $73.50 would improve the technical outlook and could lead to a recovery toward $74.50.

Dow Jones Technical Analysis

The Dow Jones remains in a medium-term bullish trend despite the recent loss of momentum. Price continues to trade above the rising 20-period moving average, although the short-term moving averages (MA5 and MA10) have crossed below the MA20, indicating that bullish momentum has weakened in the near term.

Price is currently consolidating around the 52,235–52,300 region, with relatively narrow candles reflecting reduced volatility and indecision.

The short-term outlook is neutral to slightly bullish. Holding above 52,200 keeps the broader recovery intact and leaves room for another attempt toward 52,600–52,800. However, a decisive break below 52,200 would strengthen the bearish correction and expose the 52,000–51,900 support area.
