Gold prices opened the week of September 21 near $4,350 per ounce after retreating from recent highs above $4,600, pressured by the Federal Reserve’s September 15–16 rate increase of 25 basis points to the 3.75–4.00% target range and signals of potential further tightening. Hawkish policy expectations have lifted the dollar and kept 10-year Treasury yields near 4.93%, raising the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding bullion. Countervailing support stems from elevated geopolitical risks in the Middle East and Ukraine plus record ETF inflows, though softer oil prices have tempered immediate inflation concerns. Traders are monitoring upcoming U.S.-China talks and any yield or dollar reversals for near-term direction.

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.
