Gold prices hover near $4,400 per ounce amid shifting Federal Reserve rate expectations, with markets assigning roughly 60% odds of a 25 basis point hike at the September 16 FOMC meeting following stronger-than-expected August payrolls and elevated oil prices tied to Middle East tensions. Upcoming U.S. CPI and PPI releases this week will likely clarify inflation trends and influence real yield paths, directly affecting opportunity costs for the non-yielding metal. A weaker dollar has provided intermittent support, while persistent central bank accumulation and geopolitical hedging underpin longer-term demand. Traders are monitoring the $4,300–$4,500 range for near-term direction, with the FOMC decision serving as the immediate catalyst that could either reinforce or ease pressure on XAUUSD through the remainder of September.

Only prices achieved during an applicable trading session of the specified timeframe's business days will be considered. The trading session for a given business day typically begins at 6:00 PM ET on the prior calendar date. Under the standard schedule, trading is open from 6:00:00 PM ET Sunday through 5:00:00 PM ET Friday, with a daily break from 5:00:00 PM ET to 6:00:00 PM ET, except where modified by holiday or special-session hours.
Prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding.
If Gold (XAUUSD) does not trade at all during the listed time frame, this market will resolve to "No".
In the event of a contract specification change, feed change, or similar structural modification affecting the market during the listed time frame, this market will resolve based on adjusted prices as displayed on Pyth.
The resolution source for this market is Pyth — specifically, the Gold (XAUUSD) "High" and "Low" prices available at https://pythdata.app/explore/Metal.XAU%2FUSD, with the chart settings configured for 1-minute candles.
Historical 1-minute candles may be accessed by appending a Unix timestamp (seconds) to the Pyth chart URL using the "t=" parameter.
If the relevant Pyth data is unavailable due to a system outage, data failure, or other technical disruption that prevents verification of the required 1-minute candle data, the official daily high/low price published for the relevant CME COMEX futures contract for the underlying metal—COMEX Gold Futures (GC)—may be used to determine whether the listed price was reached during the applicable trading session.
