Second, the trading rules, spot gold is traded by market traders, that is to say, you can successfully facilitate the transaction at any time if you want to buy or sell it, but futures are matchmaking transactions. When the big market comes, there may be cases of non-delivery, which to some extent infinitely increases the risk of investors.
Third, the leverage ratio of spot gold is 1 to 100. As long as you pay a deposit of $65,438+0,000, you can buy and sell first-hand, but futures need much more funds, and the demand for funds is large, and the corresponding risks are also great.
Therefore, according to the rules of the game, spot gold is better than gold futures. Moreover, spot gold is an international transaction, which has a history of several hundred years abroad. In China, gold futures were listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in 2002, and all aspects of supervision are not very strict, and the market is not very mature, which also magnifies the risks to some extent. I believe that those who have the vision to invest in gold will realize these points.
