Sadeq Sayed Ahmad
Founder & Lead Developer
Last updated:
Sadeq Sayed Ahmad is a software developer and the founder of Gold Prices Arabia. He built the platform to make international gold pricing transparent and accessible to Arabic-speaking users across the MENA region.
The site aggregates live spot gold (XAU/USD) from PAXG/USD WebSocket feeds on Binance, Coinbase and Kraken, then converts these prices into 40+ retail currencies — including Saudi Riyal, Jordanian Dinar, UAE Dirham and Egyptian Pound — using daily mid-market FX rates from open central-bank data.
Sadeq does not provide trading or investment advice. The platform publishes observable market data, not financial guidance. Users seeking trading or investment recommendations should consult a licensed financial advisor in their jurisdiction.
Background
- Builds and maintains the platform — real-time gold price tracking, 40+ currency conversions, and Arabic-first web experience.
- Focused on transparency: every price calculation is documented at /methodology. No hidden markup, no paid analysts.
- Built specifically for Arabic-speaking users — full RTL support, local currency defaults, and MENA jewellery market conventions.
