Overview
Gold (XAU/USD) — How it moves
What is XAU/USD?
XAU/USD is the price of gold quoted in US dollars. It is one of the most actively traded commodities and a global macro proxy.
Gold often reflects shifts in real yields, the US dollar, and risk sentiment—especially when markets reprice inflation and central-bank expectations.

When gold tends to move the most
London + New York overlap is typically the most volatile window.
Gold can spike during US data releases (inflation, jobs) and Fed-related headlines. In quieter weeks, it ranges and hunts liquidity around round numbers.

Common traps
Chasing the first breakout candle in a range regime often gets faded.
Gold loves stop-runs around obvious highs/lows—wait for acceptance (a retest or consolidation) before committing size.
