Technically, XAUDUSD's higher volatility allows for higher profits, but along with the risk, a stop loss that is too tight may be easily hit. In contrast, GBPUSD spreads are usually lower and volatility is high but not as high as XUUSD, allowing lower risk. However, it depends on the trader's skills in reading the market.

for trading in such a short time you should find something very volatile and also you should be really good at trading! for this reason gold is better IF YU KNOW HOW TO TRADE GOLD

Gold moves fast but I think if you don't know how to handle volatility. It can eat the live account.

I want to start actively trading for a living and want to trade a minimum of 8-10 times a day. So, what will be more suitable for me?

Safe-haven pairs may become more relevant as geopolitical tensions escalate. Gold and oil are notable options, though their significance depends on individual trading strategies and risk tolerance. GBP/USD is another widely followed pair, influenced by high-impact news releases and economic developments in both the UK and the US, offering insights into potential movements. However, with numerous tradable pairs available, opportunities exist across the platform.
