There was a move below the 200 Simple Moving Average (green, 4 hours). If there is another decline, Gold might find bids near the $4,740 level. The first major support sits at $4,710 and the 100 Simple Moving Average (red, 4 hours).

The next support could be $4,600, below which the price might slide to $4,550. The main support sits at $4,425. Any more losses might call for a test of $4,200 or even $4,120 in the coming days.

On the upside, immediate resistance is $4,820. The next major resistance sits near $4,880. The main resistance could be near the trend line at $4,900. There is also a key contracting triangle forming with resistance at $4,900.
