Gold prices advanced firmly during the North American session on Tuesday amid a risk-on environment and steady US Treasury yields. Investors ignored better-than-expected economic data from the United States (US), failing to underpin the already battered Greenback. The XAU/USD trades at $2,524 and gains over 0.20%.

This sent US Treasury bond yields tumbling and the US Dollar to a new 12-month low, levels last seen in July 2023, according to the US Dollar Index (DXY).
Gold opened at around 2525and rose to around 2528 at the highest and around 2524 at the lowest before press time.Pay attention to the resistance of 2520-2530-2540. If it fails to break through, it will test2500-2490-2480
