Frequently asked questions

How is this price quoted?

XAU/USD is the spot price of gold in US dollars per troy ounce. The chart uses COMEX gold futures (GC) or Kraken PAXG/USD as a reference when the futures feed is unavailable.

What affects the price?

US real yields, the dollar and central-bank demand can influence gold. Higher real yields increase the opportunity cost of holding gold.

How do I read the chart?

1Y and 5Y request the past year and five years. The chart shows the actual available dates and source when it uses a reference series. Technical indicators use the displayed candles.

Where do the prices and chart data come from?

Spot quotes come from Gold API when available. Futures quotes use Yahoo Finance. When a reference is used, check the label and timestamp. A chart may use a different instrument from the quote above it. The chart caption gives the reference source and the actual dates covered.
