Spot gold (XAUUSD) trades around $4,676 per ounce as of April 4, 2026, down over 2% in the last session and 8% over the past month amid a rebounding US dollar index near 100 and steady February CPI at 2.4% year-over-year, which has curbed expectations for imminent Federal Reserve rate cuts from the current 3.50%-3.75% fed funds target range. Persistent central bank gold buying—net positive in February and projected at 850 tonnes for 2026—bolsters demand floors, countering macro headwinds from higher real yields, while Iran tensions sustain safe-haven bids. Key catalysts include March CPI (due mid-April), nonfarm payrolls, and the April 28-29 FOMC meeting, with DXY and Treasury yields pivotal for month-end pricing.

Only prices achieved during the applicable trading session as listed on Pyth will be considered. 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 as listed on Pyth.
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) "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 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.
