Gold prices firmed on Tuesday, propped up by a softer dollar and prospects of the U.S. Federal Reserve delaying a tapering in its pandemic-era bond purchases.
Spot gold rose 0.2% to $1,826.75 per ounce by 0108 GMT.
Prices had hit a 2-1/2-month high last week following a disappointing U.S. non-farm payrolls data. A strong jobs recovery is crucial for the central bank to start withdrawing its stimulus measures.
