For the Monday, 26 October 2026 session · based on the 23 October 2026 session
Summary
Gold closed the previous session at 3995.51, below the daily pivot of 4001.76. It trades below its 200-session average (4289.16), and the RSI stands at 33.

How this analysis is made
- It is computed from the same price feed Vexoda executes trades on — not data scraped from another site.
- Classic pivots (P, R1–R3, S1–S3) come from the previous session for the daily view and the previous week for the weekly view.
- Support and resistance zones are clustered swing highs and lows; a zone price has reacted to more often carries more weight.
- The bias scores five factors: the close against the 200-session average, the 50/200 average order, the close against the pivot, the RSI and the 4-hour trend.
- Nothing is edited by hand, and the record of previous sessions stays on this page.
