    The XAU/USD market is open for trading 24 hours a day, 5 days a week. This means you can trade this currency pair from Sunday evening (Eastern Standard Time) until Friday evening. Keep in mind that trading hours may vary slightly depending on the broker or exchange you are using. It's always a good idea to check with your specific platform for the exact trading hours.

    The XAU/USD market opens at 6:00 PM (EST) on Sunday and remains open until 5:00 PM (EST) on Friday. This gives traders ample time to take advantage of market opportunities throughout the week. However, it's important to note that liquidity may vary during certain times of the day, so it's advisable to be aware of the market conditions before placing trades.

    The XAU/USD market is open 24/5, which means it is available for trading from Sunday evening until Friday evening. However, it's worth mentioning that the XAU/USD market is most active during the London and New York trading sessions. During these sessions, you can expect higher liquidity and tighter spreads, making it an ideal time to trade this currency pair. Keep in mind that market hours may vary depending on your broker or exchange, so it's always a good idea to check their specific trading hours.
