Spot gold rose 0.6% to $4,142.14 per ounce, while gold futures for December delivery rose 0.7% to $4,148.92 per ounce by 04:57 Moscow time.
Gold prices rose during Asian trading on Tuesday, demonstrating demand amid growing uncertainty about U.S. trade policy and interest rates, while the recent strengthening of the dollar had little effect on the value of the precious metal.
Increased risk appetite, as U.S. lawmakers neared the end of the country's longest government shutdown, also had little effect on gold, as markets remain concerned about the economic consequences of the shutdown.
Demand for gold remains despite progress on the shutdown
Investors mostly remained committed to gold, even though progress in ending the long-term shutdown in the United States helped improve risk appetite, albeit only marginally.
The yellow metal recovered sharply to above the coveted $4,000 per ounce mark this week, largely ignoring pressure from a stronger dollar.
The U.S. Senate on Monday evening approved a bill to unlock additional funding and end the longest government shutdown in history, which has been going on for 41 days.
The bill will be considered in the House of Representatives on Wednesday, with the Republican majority in the House signaling that it will approve the measure.
