Gold — next-move ranges
High / low estimate · 5 to 60 minDetails
Built from live price momentum plus a keyword lean across the headlines below. Rules-based, not AI — nothing can reliably predict gold minutes out. The price feed behind these ranges can sit a few dollars away from the TradingView chart; that's normal vendor spread.

Silver — next-move ranges
High / low estimate · 5 to 60 minDetails
Silver is measured on its own realised volatility, which normally runs two to three times gold's, so these bands are proportionally wider. The momentum lean is also damped, because silver's short-term moves carry less information. Rules-based, not AI.
Pakistan — gold & silver rates
PKR · per tola & 10gInternational equivalent (live)
Details
Converted from the live international spot price at the open-market USD→PKR rate, 1 tola = 11.664 g. Refreshes every few seconds. If a feed is briefly unreachable, the last good number stays on screen with its time.
Local Sarafa Bazar rates
Details
Local Sarafa Bazar rates per tola. Karachi and Lahore rates are entered by the Gold Desk admin as they're announced. If 22K or 21K isn't announced, it's worked out from the 24K rate by purity (22/24 and 21/24). Shop prices add making charges.
India, China & Hong Kong — gold
Spot price converted to local currencyDetails
These are the international spot price converted with live USD exchange rates (1 tael = 37.429 g, 1 troy ounce = 31.1035 g). Local retail prices are higher: India adds import duty and GST, and jewellers everywhere add making charges. Use these as a reference, not as a shop quote.

Choose a state to see how it treats this item.
Shops usually pay less than melt (scrap bid). This is metal value only.
Details
Melt value is spot × troy ounces × purity. The tax side uses a simplified table of public state rules — general rate for jewelry, and the common investment-bullion exemption for bars and coins, with the invoice thresholds some states apply. These are simplified public rules and can go stale. The rate field starts at the state base rate; add county and city on top yourself. Verify current status with your state revenue department before a large purchase.
Headlines and why they matter
Details
Each headline is tagged into one of five drivers — dollar, Fed/rates, geopolitics, inflation/oil, or safe-haven flow. It's a simple pattern match on the headline text, not editorial judgment, and it can mis-tag an ambiguous story.
