Spot gold trades at <strong>$4,999.35<\/strong>, down <strong>$43.96 (-0.87%)<\/strong>, while a separate reading shows the metal off <strong>1.0% at $4,991.45<\/strong>. Despite the pullback, the broader trend that began after the bounce from <strong>$4,400 per ounce<\/strong> remains intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Gold slipped, as traders took profits after mild US inflation data pushed the metal back above $5,000 an ounce <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ZwkfdM1zxb\">https:\/\/t.co\/ZwkfdM1zxb<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Bloomberg (@business) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/business\/status\/2023176627740377483?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 15, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since rebounding from that $4,400 low, gold has carved out a rising channel defined by gradually higher lows. This structure continues to favour buyers, particularly while price holds above the lower boundary of the channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, momentum has stalled near <strong>$5,100<\/strong>, a level gold has tested multiple times without success. Each attempt above this zone has triggered profit-taking, signalling that sellers remain active near psychological resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consolidation Within Strength<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gold\u2019s inability to clear $5,100 does not invalidate the broader bullish structure. Instead, it highlights the importance of momentum confirmation. Markets remain sensitive to macro catalysts, particularly US inflation data and Federal Reserve guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">What happened to the global economy this week \u2014 in charts <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/dQlYhrwESu\">https:\/\/t.co\/dQlYhrwESu<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Bloomberg (@business) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/business\/status\/2022620027619344500?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 14, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With traders still pricing in rate cuts later this year, the medium-term backdrop remains supportive for non-yielding assets. However, strong economic data can <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/CTU4ZJ3lO1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">delay easing expectations<\/a> and weigh on bullion in the short term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The current technical posture suggests that gold is consolidating gains after an extended rally rather than entering a sustained downtrend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technical Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gold (XAUUSD) is trading at <strong>$4,999.35<\/strong>, down <strong>0.87%<\/strong>, as price slips back toward the psychological $5,000 level following the earlier rejection from the <strong>$5,598.60<\/strong> peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The daily structure remains broadly bullish, but momentum has clearly cooled, with price now hovering just below the <strong>5-day MA (5014.25)<\/strong> while holding marginally above the <strong>10-day MA (4978.59)<\/strong> and <strong>20-day MA (4991.57)<\/strong> cluster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2026\/03\/image-19-1024x472.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41944\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">#image_title<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This tight compression of short-term moving averages suggests consolidation rather than an outright reversal. The <strong>30-day MA (4848.69)<\/strong> continues to trend upward, reinforcing medium-term support beneath current price action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A sustained hold above the $4,950\u2013$4,980 region keeps the broader uptrend intact, while a decisive break below this zone could expose deeper retracement toward the $4,550 area. On the upside, reclaiming $5,050 would likely restore bullish momentum and reopen the path toward the recent highs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Market Implications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As long as gold holds above <strong>$4,900<\/strong>, the upward channel remains valid and dip-buying interest may persist. A sustained break above <strong>$5,100<\/strong> would likely trigger momentum buying and open the path toward the prior high near <strong>$5,598.60<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conversely, if price slips below <strong>$4,900<\/strong>, short-term bearish pressure could accelerate toward <strong>$4,640<\/strong>, where stronger structural support may emerge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Traders should watch price behaviour closely around these levels, as the next directional move will likely be driven by whether bulls can finally overcome resistance or bears force a deeper correction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Learn more about trading <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/precious-metals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Precious Metals<\/a> on VT Markets <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/Insights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gold holds bullish channel above $4,900 but repeated failures at $5,100 raise pullback risk. | VT Markets<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":64,"featured_media":41945,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[6,13],"class_list":["post-41943","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-analysis","tag-gold","tag-precious-metals"],"acf":{"acf_article_selection_author":""},"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO Pro 4.9.10 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Gold tests $5100 resistance as bulls defend the uptrend.
