The value of gold in society goes more than just economic, as it is also treasured as a storage and display of mammon and culture. Of late, the price of gold is not stable in which it tends to oscillate contingent on the economic condition.

This main objective is to examine the relationship between factors interest rate, crude oil price, and exchange rate with gold prices in Malaysia. Besides that, this study aims to understand and describe the dependent variable or explain its variability or predict it.

This variable measured by Ringgit Malaysia. In contrast, the independent variable is one that influences the dependent variable in whether positive or negatively.

Based on Multiple Regression Model Test, the result show that there is a significant and positive relationship between exchange rate and gold price as the coefficient of exchange rate indicates a positive value.
