Gold slipped 1.62% to close at $3,976.24, while silver managed to finish up 1.05% at $49.39, though still well below its earlier intraday high of $51.24.

Looking at the daily chart to see how silver behaved today at that critical $50 resistance level, early in the New York session, it made a sharp attempt to test that level but failed to close above it and then pulled back.

Just a couple of days ago, everyone was celebrating gold’s move above the critical $4,000 psychological resistance level. But with today’s pullback, it slipped back below that level in both COMEX futures and spot.

CME Relaxes Margins: Will "Gold Rush" Comeback?
Effective after the close on March 6, 2026, the CME Group has slashed initial margin requirements for Gold (from 9% to 7%) and Silver (from 18% to 14%). This move signals an end to a relentless cycle of six consecutive margin hikes that aimed to curb the "volatility" in early 2026. The fundamental demand remains institutionalized: the World Gold Council reports a massive $5.3 billion net inflow into gold ETFs in February, 9 consecutive month of growth. Will margin cut invite a fresh wave of leveraged speculators? Will gold start a sustained rebound?
