GOLD - Bearish Pressure

The chart for Gold (XAU/USD) on the 1-hour timeframe shows a recent sharp downward move, breaking below a previous level of support around $3,250. The price action has created a bearish fair value gap (FVG) between approximately $3,260 and $3,270, which could act as a potential resistance zone. Above this FVG, a Breaker Block in orange is also visible above - further reinforcing this area as significant resistance. The initial sharp decline is indicated by a strong bearish candle, followed by some consolidation. A projected path suggests a potential retracement back up towards the FVG or volume imbalance before continuing its downward trajectory towards lower support levels around $3,200 and potentially $3,175. The $3,300 level appears to be a significant area of past volume resistance.Price ran up into the FVG zone - we will be looking for more downside to followNice rejection and bearish downside pressure that followed in the charts
