On the left hand side, you can place your buy and sell order for paper gold, i.e. gold with financial settlement only. Every position must be closed with the opposite position and a collateral in the value of 3.5% is required to open a position. Position remains open until it is closed.

If you need to sell (or buy) physical gold, but do not have 100% of the purchase price, you can sell paper gold on this side of the platform when the price is right. After you receive the full amount of gold/funds, you simply close the opened position and same time place the sell/buy order on the physical part of the platform. Your original price +/- discount or premium is the result.

Financial Settlement

Physical Settlement Contract

On the right hand side, you can place your buy or sell order for physical gold, i.e. gold with immediate physical delivery only. No position is being opened, since in the moment of the order placement the seller transfers 100% gold from his account to the account of the buyer and the buyer transfers 100% purchase price to the account of the seller. No leverage is needed and no delivery risk is involved.

If you need to sell (or buy) physical gold, but and you do have 100% of the purchase price or gold, you can sell physical gold on this side of the platform when the price is right. After you receive the full amount of gold/funds, the trade is final and you can claim withdrawal.

Open positions

In the list of open positions, a cummulated value of your positions per each commodity pair is listed.

Financial Settlement

List of open positions

Open positions are allowed only on the financial market. On the physical market, no open positions are possible, since each order immediately results in the physical delivery of gold and money between the buyer and the seller.

As an efficient strategy, when you are buying gold from your external supplier, you can fix the price with him anytime in advance, before he delivers the physical gold to you, and hedge yourself on the financial platform side. Then, after delivery, you can sell the physical gold on the physical platform side and close in the same time the hedging position on the financial side with a buy order. You can even pre-define the desired premium/discount you want to achieve.
