Reading the XAU/USD chart

Gold trades almost 24 hours a day on weekdays. It often moves opposite the US dollar and real interest rates, and tends to rise in times of stress. Central-bank decisions and data such as inflation and jobs reports cause many of the biggest moves on the XAU/USD chart. Pivot points and the previous day’s high and low are popular reference levels.
