1. At present, the domestic precious metals investment platform is Shanghai Stock Exchange and Bank Paper Gold and Silver, while the domestic Shanghai Futures Exchange is formal. Every day, gold and silver were postponed for 4 hours, and later a night contract was opened, but the threshold was higher, at least 10 thousand yuan. Tianjiao Exchange and Guangzhao Exchange are for reference. Local platforms are more of a gambling model for merchants and customers, but they are seriously lacking in management and supervision. There is no guarantee that it will not be banned in the future.

2. Foreign silver investment platforms, such as silver spot, are not suitable for beginners because of their high leverage ratio.

3. In general, you can choose chinese gold and silver exchange society members who are qualified for electronic trading, but try not to use mt4 platform. Because mt4 is a public resource software, it is easy to be used by criminals to make fake stocks.

What qualifications does a precious metal trading platform need?

The State Council's approval or consent is required to start the transaction.

According to the regulations of the People's Bank of China, only Shanghai Gold Exchange and Shanghai Futures Exchange are gold trading exchanges approved or agreed by the State Council. No other institution, website or individual in China may set up a gold exchange and various gold trading platforms.

At present, all kinds of precious metal trading platforms in China are fake, so investors must keep their eyes open and not be deceived by illegal financial companies, tall backgrounds and office environment.

What are the trading platforms in precious metals investment?

Precious metal trading platforms can be divided into two categories: foreign and domestic precious metal trading platforms.

First of all, I don't advise you to find a foreign precious metal platform, although there are many foreign precious metal platforms that are formal. But at present, in China, in fact, most of the foreign precious metal trading platforms you can find may be informal trading platforms, so your funds will be at great risk of loss. At the same time, it is very important that the domestic precious metal trading platform is very mature in market mechanism and trading system, and there is no need to find a foreign platform.

Second, the domestic precious metal trading platform is the most mature, and the most formal are two exchanges: one is the Shanghai Futures Exchange and the other is the Shanghai Gold Exchange. The main trading variety of Shanghai Futures Exchange is gold futures, with a contract of 1000g per lot, which is mainly used to open accounts in regular domestic futures companies. As for the Shanghai Gold Exchange, the T+D trading of gold is also 1 1,000 grams, but there are also mini contracts of 1 1,000 grams per lot. The members of Shanghai Gold Exchange are mainly several major state-owned and joint-stock commercial banks in China, the most important of which are the four major banks, and some large joint-stock banks are quite formal.

Take these two exchanges as an example. In fact, the trading mechanism is basically the same and the leverage is similar. In terms of handling fees, the gold futures of the Shanghai Futures Exchange are much lower. The handling fee of Shanghai Gold Exchange will be much more expensive. After all, the member units involved here are all big banks, and the fees charged by banks are much more expensive. However, the advantage of the Shanghai Gold Exchange is that it has a mini-contract, which is suitable for you to start practicing, not to mention the tuition fees paid at the beginning are too expensive.
