This indicates that the price is unlikely to fall below this level under current circumstances. The resistance level is estimated at ₹1,60,188 per 10 grams, above which gold may struggle to hold firm for the time being.
However, experts also believe that, just like the stock market, support and resistance levels for commodities like gold and silver change from time to time. These levels depend entirely on current global conditions, dollar movements, interest rates, and investor demand.
