Gold Rebounds to $4,660: Bullish Engulfing Pattern Forms as Hormuz Ceasefire Faces Durability Test

Gold (XAU/USD) surged 1.97% to close at $4,661.1 on the daily chart, staging a powerful recovery after weeks of consolidation. The latest price action formed a bullish engulfing pattern, decisively reclaiming the key horizontal support at $4,505. While the market initially found relief in the conditional two-week U.S.-Iran ceasefire, gold's sharp $90 bounce suggests investors are increasingly wary of the truce's long-term durability.
