Gold continues to move higher ahead of the Fed decision. U.S. dollar’s pullback and lower Treasury yields served as positive catalysts for gold markets today.

If gold gets above the resistance at $2025, it will move towards the next resistance level at $2050. On the support side, a move below $2010 will push gold back towards the $2000 level.
