Probability

72%

Gold closed at $4,121.95/oz on July 10, 2026 — near historical highs. The $4,050 threshold is 1.7% below. No direct Polymarket panel for XAU on July 18. Geopolitical tensions (Iran-US 60-day MOU from June 15, Middle East), a softer US dollar (EUR/USD at 1.1416 on July 11), and expectations of a Fed hold on July 29 (CME FedWatch: 78%) support gold. Typical weekly gold volatility of 1.5–2.5% makes a 1.7% drop to $4,050 possible but the exception.
