Spot Gold: The standard spread is USD 0.2. The spread charge for trading 1 lot of Spot Gold starts from USD 20 under floating spread conditions.

Spot Silver: The standard spread is USD 0.02. The spread charge for trading 1 lot of Spot Silver starts from USD 100 under floating spread conditions.

The spread charge varies depending on the number of lots traded.

Example: If the standard spread for Spot Gold is USD 0.2, the contract size is 100 ounces, and the trade size is 5 lots, then the standard spread charge is:USD 0.2 × 100 ounces × 5 lots = USD 100

Slippage refers to the difference between the order price you specify and the actual execution price when placing a trade.

Types of slippage:

Normal slippage: This is a natural result of objective market conditions and often occurs during sharp price movements or when market liquidity is insufficient.

Abnormal slippage: This is usually caused by improper or malicious dealing practices and is more commonly associated with market makers.

How slippage occurs:

Network delay: Prices are received from the exchange and displayed on the trading platform. After a client submits an order, it is transmitted to the exchange through the server. A slight delay may occur during this process. Under normal market conditions, it may not be noticeable, but during strong volatility, the delay can become more apparent.

Price gaps in the market: Market liquidity is essential for smooth trading. In markets such as spot gold, trades depend on counterparties being available on the other side of the transaction. When liquidity is thin, price gaps may appear, which can lead to slippage.
