Gold tests a critical halfway-back level, shaping trader bets
Gold futures rallied in August but pulled back to classic 50% retracement levels of recent moves, hovering near a key halfway-back area around 4,780 (between Jan’s high and Jul’s low) and another midpoint near 4,373. Prices dipped to roughly 4,370–4,380 before rebounding. Traders view these halfway-back levels as potential entry/exit points: sell near the line if price stalls or breaks through to signal continuity, and stay in or add if a reversal confirms.
