Source, calculation and limitations
Source: OANDA:XAUUSD candles received through TradingView. Range is high minus low. The last candle is compared with the mean range of the preceding 20 completed sessions, or the available smaller sample. The current candle is excluded from that mean. Completion requires a following candle, so this table can lag one session while the market is closed. Candle snapshots refresh every five minutes; the quote above remains live. Session labels use Cairo time and may differ from your broker's trading-day labels.

Understand the quote
What does XAUUSD mean?
XAUUSD quotes one troy ounce of gold in US dollars. A rising quote means gold is becoming more expensive against USD. Spot price is not the same as finished retail jewelry because local pricing adds purity, fabrication, tax and currency conversion.
Today’s drivers
Why does gold rise or fall?
Gold does not move because of one indicator. Watch US rate expectations, real yields, dollar strength, inflation, employment, central-bank decisions and geopolitical risk. The headline alone is insufficient; price reaction and liquidity reveal whether the effect is sustained.
