Gold prices traded marginally higher against the USD in the 24 hour period ending 23:00GMT, at 1590.75 per ounce.
Earlier, gold prices were pressured after upbeat US labour market data added to evidence of an economic recovery, making safe-haven assets like the yellow metal less attractive. However, Gold prices later rebounded on bargain hunting.
