Indicative pricing
The asset class
What you are trading
Metal CFDs track the spot price of gold, silver, or platinum in US dollars per ounce. A position profits or loses with the metal's dollar price; nothing physical is bought, stored, or delivered. Gold in particular trades with currency-like liquidity while behaving, at times, like the market's insurance policy.
Why trade it here
Why trade metals at Dynasty
A hedge that stays tradable
Gold's liquidity holds up in exactly the conditions that thin out other markets — which is when hedges matter.
Fractional sizing
Lots step down to 0.01, so a position can be sized to the account, not the other way around.
Terms in the open
Contract size, margin treatment, and both swap directions per metal are published in the specifications table.
Long or short, same spread
Positioning against the metal costs the same as positioning with it.
Instruments & indicative pricing
Trading hours (GST)
Metals trade from Monday 02:00 GST to Saturday 01:45 GST with a daily pause from 01:45 to 02:00 GST while the reference market rolls. The deepest pricing coincides with London and New York hours.
GST does not observe daylight saving. Session times for overseas markets shift by one hour when their regions change clocks — typically late March and late October.
