What drives XAU/USD?

Gold is commonly quoted in dollars per troy ounce. This XAU/USD page uses a gold futures proxy, so its price can differ from spot gold or a broker's gold CFD.

Watch Real yields, dollar strength, central-bank demand and defensive investment flows. Compare gold with the dollar and yields; a futures contract change can also affect the displayed history.

Check the futures contract, expiry and quote units. Contract rolls can create gaps; futures prices and physical spot quotes may differ.

Check the candle interval, last update, market session and limitations. News or event coverage may be unavailable. Compare with your current broker or exchange quote.
