About the Metals Market
Metals are led by gold, one of the most widely traded assets in the world and a traditional store of value. Other key instruments include silver, platinum and palladium, each with its own mix of industrial demand, investment flows and active market interest. Trading volumes can be comparable to major currency pairs but often come with higher volatility.
Prices in metals markets are influenced by factors such as inflation expectations, interest rates, currency moves, production levels and broader economic or geopolitical events. These assets can move sharply during news and risk-on / risk-off shifts, so effective risk management is essential when trading metal CFDs.
