Gold is trying to recover, but the chart is still testing a dangerous area.

Price reacted from the 4,072 Fibo buy zone and bounced back toward 4,080 - 4,090. At first look, this recovery may feel bullish.

But the most important resistance is still waiting above.

The simple read

Gold is still trading below the main downtrend line.

The key area today is 4,106.

This is where the order sell zone and downtrend pressure meet.

If gold reaches 4,106 and fails again, sellers may try to push price back toward 4,072.

If 4,072 breaks, the next downside zones are 4,035 and 4,005.

But if buyers can break and hold above 4,106, the recovery becomes more convincing.

That would be the first sign that gold is trying to escape the bearish pressure.

Trading plan

Bullish setup:

If gold holds above 4,072 and breaks 4,106 with confirmation, buyers may try to build a stronger recovery.

A clean retest above 4,106 would make the setup healthier.

Rejection setup:

If gold rejects from 4,106, the downtrend pressure remains active.

Price may return toward 4,072 first.

Below 4,072, sellers may look toward 4,035 and 4,005.
