The precious metals market has performed impressively recently, with gold showing a good layout point around 4493. From a technical perspective, 4488 is the key defensive range, and caution is needed if it falls below. Looking upwards, 4500 is the first resistance level, and if it can break through smoothly, the target price of 4530 can be monitored subsequently.

The current gold trend is increasingly linked to mainstream cryptocurrencies. The changes in liquidity of crypto assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum often leave traces in precious metals. Especially when geopolitical policy uncertainty rises, the safe-haven attributes of gold and Bitcoin are both activated.

Remember a few basics when trading: always set a stop-loss and don't be overly optimistic; strictly control the position size for each trade and don't go all in on any one direction. No matter how good the market looks, always leave yourself an exit strategy. Wait for confirmation signals before taking action; it's better to be slow than to chase the trend at a high.
