What the dollar ounce means here
Traders in Shanghai usually see account funding in Chinese yuan (CNY). XAUUSD itself is still dollars per troy ounce. Chinese is the main language locally. This page stays in English so the clock can be compared across countries.
The regulator named for China is CSRC. That name is context, not a claim that Shanghai has licensed this site.
The Shanghai Gold Exchange prices gold in yuan. XAUUSD is the international dollar price of one troy ounce, not a yuan contract.
The Shanghai Gold Exchange is in Shanghai. Its yuan contracts are not XAUUSD. The clock matches Beijing.
