Aggressive Leveraging

Leverage small price movements in these market commodities by up to 50 times with our low margin requirements. With our low margin requirements, you need deposit just 2% of the trade value in collateral.

Trading Spot Gold and Silver

Spot Gold and Silver are traded through the Forex Trade Module in our SaxoTrader trading platform.

Spot Commodities allow you to short sell as easily as taking a long position and can also be traded by Market, Limit and Stop orders.

Spot Gold and Spot Silver trading conditions are the same as the FX Trading Conditions.

The target spreads listed are our best possible spreads used in normal market conditions. Under certain market conditions - such as over the release of key economic figures, during periods of volatile market conditions, and during the sometime illiquid European night time spreads may be wider and auto execution limits may be lowered or disabled.

Margin Requirements

Forex is traded on margin enabling you to leverage a small margin deposit for a much greater market effect where:

  • Reduced margin rates apply to the first EUR 300,000 (or equivalent) of your investment collateral
  • Normal margin rates apply to all investment collateral above EUR 300,000 (or equivalent)

Maximum trade size

The maximum trade size that can be executed on a live tradable price without intervention from the bank. For trade sizes over the Maximum Trade size and in volatile market conditions, the trade must first be approved by a dealer which normally takes just a few seconds.

Ticket Fee Threshold

For trades below the Ticket Fee Threshold, a small ticket fee of USD 10 is added to the trade to cover administration costs.
