Gold daily chart

 
XAU/USD is trading in an unusual tight range for the second consecutive session below the 1480 resistance and the 50-day simple moving averages (DMAs).  
   

Gold four-hour chart  

 
 
The buyers need a successful breakout above the 1480/85 resistance zone. If this happens, the next main resistance is likely the 1515 level. On the flip side, if the bears fade the current resistance zone, the market could drop to 1465 and potentially to the 1455/50 support zone.
