Support is at 7050, with resistance at 7477. The RSI is below the 50-line at 46 momentum, consistent with the range-bound conditions but slightly more bearish.

Gold has flipped into a more neutral consolidation phase, trading at 2,635, near the VWAP (20) of 2,630. Support is positioned at 2,543, with resistance at 2,721. The RSI at 46 indicates lackluster momentum, suggesting continued consolidation within a new range beneath record highs.
