Gold Bounces From 4,369.7 Midpoint After August Rally Stalls Near 4,778.7

Summary
Gold futures fell almost exactly to 4,369.7 this week and then bounced, with buyers stepping in at the 50% retracement of the July 16-to-Aug. 25 rally.
That pullback followed an August surge that peaked at 4,755 on Aug. 25, just below the broader 4,778.7 halfway-back level from gold’s Jan. 29 to July 16 slide.
RSI had already moved into overbought territory near that upper midpoint, helping trigger selling as traders treated the level as resistance with limited risk if price broke through.
The move underscores a basic technical setup: traders use 50% retracement levels less as fixed signals than as zones where market reaction reveals whether momentum is reversing or continuing.
