U.S. gold futures fell 0.6% to $3,321.49.
The dollar index (.DXY), opens new tab rose 0.2%, making gold more expensive for overseas buyers.
"Gold prices are more or less consolidating at this point of time," said Brian Lan, managing director at GoldSilver Central, Singapore.
"What we see is that these are normal market occurrences just at the range now is slightly wider mainly due to the confidence in the U.S. dollar."
