Gold is struggling to hold the $4,000 level as traders continue to price in a more aggressive Federal Reserve. With markets now expecting multiple rate hikes and the dollar sitting near a one-year high, it's hard to build a strong bullish case for the metal in the short term.

The recent improvement in Middle East diplomacy has also taken some urgency out of safe-haven buying. While geopolitical risks haven't disappeared, investors seem more focused on interest rates, Treasury yields, and upcoming U.S. inflation data. As long as the Fed remains firmly hawkish under Kevin Warsh, gold may find it difficult to stage a meaningful recovery.

For now, the market appears caught between oversold conditions and a macro backdrop that still favors the dollar.

First resistance is seen at $4040, with initial support near $3960.
