Gold Trading FAQs

CFDs (Contracts for Difference) allow you to trade the price of gold against the US Dollar without owning the physical metal. You can go long or short and access leverage to amplify your trading potential.
XAUUSD CFDs are available 24 hours a day, 5 days a week, aligned with global market sessions. This allows you to trade whenever price movements occur.
Yes, holding a gold CFD position overnight incurs swap/rollover fees, reflecting the cost of leverage and interest rate differentials. These are calculated automatically by the platform.
You can trade Gold CFDs on Raw Spread accounts for ultra-tight spreads with commission or Standard accounts for commission-free trading with slightly wider spreads. Choose the account that suits your strategy.
Gold CFDs offer leverage of up to 1:20, allowing you to control larger positions with smaller capital. Always consider your risk carefully when using leverage.
