Precious metals

Gold, and the metals that move with it.

Precious metals are the original safe-haven trade — where capital goes when currencies wobble. Gold is our flagship: XAU/USD from 0.5 pips on a Zero account.

Why trade metals

When inflation bites or a currency cracks, capital runs to metal. Gold (XAU/USD) is the instrument traders reach for, and it's our flagship — quoted from 0.5 pips on a Zero account, swap-free available. Silver, Platinum, and Palladium round out the set for traders who want to play the wider precious-metals complex. Metals trade on near-forex hours, so they fit naturally alongside a currency book.

Gold as the flagship

XAU/USD from 0.5 pips on a Zero account — the safe-haven instrument, priced to trade actively, not just to hold.

A hedge against currency risk

When the naira, cedi, or rand moves against you, metals often move the other way. A natural counterweight in an emerging-market portfolio.

Four ways to play the complex

Gold and Silver for the core trade; Platinum and Palladium for the industrial-demand angle on Pro and Zero accounts.

Swap-free available

Hold a metals position overnight without a swap charge via the Islamic account configuration — no extra fee.
