The gold prediction for Monday is mildly constructive for Monday, 16 November 2026. Gold rose 0.49 percent to Rs 136,891.00 per 10 grams on the 4 December 2026 futures contract, after trading between 136,455.00 and 137,587.00. The price sat 696.00 rupees below the high of 137,587.00 and 436.00 rupees above the low of 136,455.00, so the contract was nearer the low of its range.

Trend	Support	Resistance
Positive	136,502.00, 136,455.00, 136,225.00	137,587.00

MCX contracts keep trading into the evening, so the live price can differ from these figures. The levels here use the 4 December 2026 futures contract and its previous settlement of 136,225.00.

For traders, the gold prediction for Monday is a framework for planning risk, with position size and stop levels left to the individual.

Key Drivers for Monday

Gold rose 0.49 percent from a previous settlement of 136,225.00 and traded above its open of 136,502.00.
Silver fell 0.19 percent on the same day, so gold and silver moved in opposite directions.
The US Dollar Index and global bond yields remain the usual external drivers for MCX prices.

Ankit Jaiswal and Kunal Singla flag the first half hour of Monday’s trade as the point to revisit this gold prediction for Monday.

Anyone following the gold prediction for Monday should keep the opening range in view before reading too much into early moves.

Nothing in this gold prediction for Monday is a promise of returns, and every level quoted can fail.

What to Watch Alongside Gold

Silver fell 0.19 percent to Rs 178,393.00 per kg, so gold gained while silver slipped. Domestic jewellery demand after the festive period is another factor traders follow, though its effect on futures prices is hard to isolate.

In short, the gold prediction for Monday rests on Friday’s verified prices and the overnight risks listed below.

These are educational views, not buy calls, and each should be checked against your own risk plan before acting.

How Friday’s Broader Session Unfolded

The Sensex closed at 81,592.45, down 0.39 percent, while the Bank Nifty closed at 61,034.10, down 0.79 percent, after opening at its high of 61,300.55. Nifty Auto fell 1.07 percent and Nifty Metal fell 0.98 percent, while Nifty FMCG was almost flat, down 0.01 percent, and Nifty PSU Bank fell 0.51 percent. The Nifty 50 closed at 25,144.30 on Friday, down 0.61 percent from Thursday’s close of 25,299.35. It opened at 25,209.85, touched a high of 25,246.35, fell to 25,054.40 and finished about 90 points above the low. India VIX, the market’s fear gauge, fell 5.05 percent to 15.78 from 16.62, after trading between 15.30 and 16.88 during the day. Nifty Next 50 fell 0.83 percent and the Nifty 500 fell 0.55 percent, while Nifty Midcap 50 was almost flat, down 0.04 percent, so mid-caps held up better than the large-cap benchmark. In the options market, the Nifty put-call ratio was approximately 0.83, with call open interest highest at the 25,500 strike and put open interest highest at 25,000, for the 17 November expiry. The trigger for Friday’s moves was not independently confirmed.

Placed against that backdrop, the gold prediction for Monday reads Friday’s move in the context of a broader market that closed lower.

Analyst View for Monday

Kunal Singla suggests that gold can hold above 136,225.00, the previous settlement, with 137,587.00 the first resistance.

Ankit Jaiswal flags that a move below 136,455, the low, would weaken the gain, while 137,587, the high, is the level to clear

Both analysts stress that the gold prediction for Monday is a view built on levels and data, not a forecast of returns.

A fair reading of this gold prediction for Monday is that Friday’s data sets the context, while Monday’s first hour decides how much of it carries forward.

Why This Is Written for Monday

This gold prediction for Monday is written on Friday, 13 November 2026, after the close, using today’s closing data, for the next regular trading session on Monday, 16 November 2026. NSE and BSE traded as normal today, Saturday and Sunday are non-trading days, and Monday is a regular session with no exchange holiday.

Because the equity market is shut for the day, the gold prediction for Monday relies on Friday’s close rather than any live price.

MCX contracts were still trading when the data was pulled at 3:39 PM IST and keep trading into the evening, so prices at the time you read this can differ from the figures above. The levels use the 4 December 2026 futures contract.
