MADRID (MarketWatch)—Gold futures edged higher in electronic trading on Friday, but remained on track to post a loss for the week.

Gold for June delivery /quotes/zigman/661661 GCM2 +0.20% added $2.70, or 0.2%, to $1,644.10 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange during European trading hours.

The metal is trading down 1% for the week, having broadly missed out on safe-haven flows at the expense of U.S. bonds and the dollar.

A stronger greenback also tends to discourage investment in gold, as it makes the commodity more expensive to holders of other currencies.
