Gold prices have dipped as U.S. longer-term Treasury yields rose, with retail traders becoming more bullish, signaling potential further losses. Over the past 48 hours, gold prices have weakened by almost 1.7%, influenced by the rise in U.S. 10 and 30-year bonds. The IG Client Sentiment (IGCS) gauge shows about 76% of retail traders are net-long gold, hinting at a continued fall in prices. Technically, XAU/USD is testing the 1936 inflection point, with a focus on the rising trendline from February. A break under it would shift the outlook to increasingly bearish, targeting the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level at 1903.
