XAU/USD Overview

XAU/USD is spot gold priced in US dollars, the market's benchmark safe-haven asset. Its biggest driver is real yields: when inflation-adjusted US Treasury yields fall, non-yielding gold usually gains, and vice versa. The US dollar, Federal Reserve policy, inflation expectations, geopolitical risk and central-bank buying all feed into price, and gold tends to rise during uncertainty and when the dollar weakens. Liquidity and volatility are highest during London and New York hours, when Western institutional flow is strongest. On ForexR you can track the live gold price, use daily pivot points to frame intraday support and resistance, measure the metal's often sizeable range with ATR, and confirm trend on the multi-timeframe chart.
