| Standard Deviation | 6.61 | 4.45 – 9.51 | 2.56 / 13.89 | 1.60 – 20.71 |
The median is the middle reading, so a single unusual session cannot drag it. The middle half is where Standard Deviation sat on half of all bars — the range you should expect to see most of the time on this chart.

How this was measured
Every 15-minute bar of Gold recorded in the last 90 days was read, and the values grouped without smoothing or filtering. Series with fewer than 400 readings are omitted rather than shown on thin evidence. These are recorded values, not predictions.
