We provide accounts with raw pricing, where additional commissions apply, while other account types have no commission but include mark-ups in the prices. By default, the chart in the MetaTrader trading platforms will display the raw pricing, while the Market Watch will show the pricing based on the account type the client is trading on.

Swaps

Dynamic Leverage

The maximum leverage will adjust based on your net open positions. For more details, please refer to the Dynamic Leverage page.

Higher margin requirements

Tronex implements risk management measures to protect positions from potential high volatility during key events and specific time periods that affect market volatility. Higher margin requirements, known as HMR (Higher Margin Requirements) periods, are applied during these times. These higher margin requirements will only apply to positions opened during these periods, and existing positions will not be affected. Closing a hedged position during HMR periods may fail if there is insufficient free margin to cover the increased margin requirements, especially for the latter half of the hedged order at the time of closing. The HMR periods include: Economic News Periods: Forex trading from 15 minutes before major news releases to 10 minutes after will be subject to higher margin requirements. Weekends & Holidays: Forex trading from 2 hours before market closing on Friday to 1 hour after market opening on Monday will be subject to higher margin requirements. The same rule applies to Trading Holidays.

FAQs

What is metal trading?

Metal trading involves buying and selling metals like gold, silver, platinum, and copper on financial markets. Traders speculate on the price movements of these metals, either through physical purchases or financial derivatives like CFDs (Contracts for Difference), futures, or options.

What types of metals can I trade?

You can trade various metals, with the most common being:

  • Precious metals: Gold, silver, platinum, and palladium.

How do I start trading metals?

To start trading metals, you’ll need to:

  • Decide whether you want to trade physical metals, or use derivatives like CFDs or futures contracts.

  • Use the trading platform to place buy or sell orders based on your market analysis.

What is the difference between trading physical metals and metal CFDs?

  • Physical metals: Involves buying and storing actual metal (e.g., buying gold bars). This requires storage and may involve additional fees.

  • Metal CFDs: Allows you to speculate on the price movements of metals without owning the physical asset. You can profit from both rising and falling markets and often trade with leverage.

What factors influence metal prices?

  • Supply and demand: For instance, gold prices are influenced by mining production and industrial demand.

  • Economic factors: Inflation, interest rates, and global economic conditions can drive demand for precious metals as a safe haven.
