Strongly Bearish Outlook

This is the last complete directional reading. It is not a current assessment.

Why updates are less frequent

This outlook updates less often than live gold prices because its external datasets publish on different schedules.

Why is momentum rated this way?

32/100

Compares today’s 24K gold price with its average price over the latest five daily records.

30-day trend -2.42%

Measures how far the 24K gold price has moved from the first available record in this 30-day window.

Shows how far today’s 24K gold price sits below the highest price recorded in the current 30-day window.

How the momentum score works Interpreting the 0–100 scale

The score combines recent price direction, the longer-term trend, overall movement, daily volatility and the current price’s position within its recent range.

0–24 Weak
25–44 Cautious
45–74 Balanced / Positive
75–100 Strong
Current reading 32/100 · Cautious Momentum

What do the two readings mean together?

1
Price momentum

Gold price momentum is cautious. Recent price behaviour has weakened.

2
Broader market conditions

The last complete broader-market assessment was Strongly Bearish Outlook using data through 18 Sep 2026. A new reading is pending.

✓
How to use both readings

Price momentum is current. The Market Outlook is from the last complete macro-data cycle, so they should not be treated as same-day confirmation.

How has this model performed? Historical testing is kept separate from the live GoldRates record so the original validation result is never rewritten.
Historical validation Fixed benchmark
1037 matched historical observations studied
66.4% directional accuracy in the held-out historical test

This is the frozen validation result from the model’s historical test period. It will not change as new live observations are recorded, and it is not the probability that today’s outlook will be correct.

Live GoldRates track record Updates with completed outlook cycles
1 live assessment recorded
100.0% 1 correct across 1 completed directional assessment

Each eligible complete Market Outlook assessment is stored when it is made and evaluated only after the next stored gold-price observation becomes available. Latest recorded assessment: 2026-09-17.

Important

The GoldRates Market Outlook is an informational assessment based on historical relationships. It is not a guaranteed forecast, price target, or financial or investment advice. Gold prices can move differently from historical patterns.

How much is my gold worth?

Add different gold holdings and calculate their combined value using the current listed rate for each selected karat.

USD
Estimated Gold Value Ready to calculate Add your holdings above, then calculate the combined value.

Uses the current listed GoldRates price for each selected karat. Weight units are converted to grams only. Karat prices are not calculated from the 24K rate. Jewellery premiums, making charges, gemstones, taxes and dealer margins are not included.

What does each gold purity mean?

Karat tells you how much of the metal is pure gold. Higher karat means more gold content; lower karat usually means more alloy and greater durability.

24K 99.9% pure gold

Highest common purity. Best suited to investment bars and coins, but softer for everyday jewellery.

22K 91.7% pure gold

High gold content with added strength. Common in traditional and high-value jewellery.

21K 87.5% pure gold

Slightly more alloy than 22K. Common jewellery purity in several Middle Eastern markets.

18K 75.0% pure gold

More durable because of higher alloy content. Common in fine jewellery designed for regular wear.

What should I know? Purity affects gold value per gram. Jewellery prices can also include making charges, design premiums, gemstones and dealer margins.

Gold price questions

Why is gold priced differently in every country?

Gold is priced in different currencies around the world. Exchange rates affect the local price, while retail prices may also include taxes, premiums and making charges.

What is the difference between 24K, 22K and 18K gold?

Karat measures gold purity. 24K is the highest commonly traded purity, while 22K and 18K contain progressively more alloyed metals.

How often are prices updated?

GoldRates refreshes its latest market prices throughout the day so visitors can follow current gold values and market movements.

What does the spot price of gold mean?

The spot price is the current market price of gold for immediate settlement. It is commonly quoted per troy ounce and serves as the global reference for gold pricing.

Why does the gold price change during the day?

Gold moves continuously as global markets react to factors such as interest rates, currencies, inflation expectations, economic data, geopolitical events and investor demand.

Are GoldRates prices the same as jewellery shop prices?

Not necessarily. GoldRates shows market-based gold values. Retail jewellery prices can also include dealer premiums, taxes, manufacturing costs and making charges.

Is GoldRates an investment-advice website?

No. GoldRates provides market information, data and educational resources to help visitors better understand gold prices. It does not provide investment advice.
