Method and source. Daily and hourly bars from the public dataset XAUUSD gold price historical data 2004-2025 (Hugging Face, ZombitX64) (revision ff6469dc91; the dataset card names Kaggle novandraanugrah/xauusd-gold-price-historical-data-2004-2024 as its source). Daily move = close vs previous close. Daily range = high minus low. Weekend gap = Friday's last hourly close to the first hourly open after the weekend. Big gap = 0.5% or more either way. Broker-style spot data; values differ from futures/other feeds (e.g. 17 Sep 2008 is +10.99% here vs about 9% COMEX settle, per Quantex note 08).
