## Summary
The DVM should support price requests for the XAUPERL and XAUUSD price indices.

## Motivation
The DVM currently does not support the XAUPERL or XAUUSD price indices.

### Cost: 
* Pricing of XAUPERL does not exist anywhere yet, but it can be done by dividing XAUUSD price by PERLUSD.

* Pricing of PERLUSD is easily accessible through open centralized exchange APIs. PERL is currently only trading on Binance as outlined in [umip-13](./umip-13.md)

* XAU is referred to gold in troy ounce traded on various exchanges. Pricing of XAUUSD is accessible from data provider’s APIs.
