Gold Jumped $85 at Monday's Asian Open, Then Gave Some Back

Tether Gold fell to $4,035 late on Sunday, November 8, 2026, then climbed to $4,120.72 in the first hours of Monday's Asian trading before slipping back to $4,072. Replay the swing in hourly steps.

Tether Gold, a token backed by physical gold, traded quietly near $4,060 on Sunday, November 8, after gold had recovered its dip on the October jobs report. When the weekend's headlines hit crypto markets in the evening, it slipped with them: the 21:00 UTC candle fell to $4,039.67 and the 22:00 UTC hour reached $4,035.14.

The turn came at midnight UTC, as Asian trading opened. The 00:00 UTC candle rose from $4,049.41 to $4,096.51 on 8,969 trades and the 01:00 UTC hour added another $16, on the heaviest activity of the replay. By 02:00 UTC the token had touched $4,120.72, $85 above Sunday's low.

It did not keep all of it. The price held near $4,110 through the Asian morning, then the 06:00 and 07:00 UTC candles slipped to $4,072.45 as Europe opened, before buyers returned. Gold went on to finish Monday higher, and futures traded near $4,131 early on Tuesday, ahead of the US October inflation report.

Replay it to see how a 24-hour gold token behaves around the weekly reopening of the main gold market: the thin Sunday evening dip, the sharp move when Asian liquidity returns, and the partial give-back once European traders reprice it.
