When you trade spot Metals, you'll own the Gold or Silver itself. Metals CFDs, on the other hand, allow you to speculate on the price movements without ever owning the asset. A key advantage of CFDs is that you're able to enter contracts for prices falling (going short), as well as rising (going long).
All trading comes with risk and CFD trading is no different. We strongly encourage you to take your time, do your research, and practice good risk management. We have excellent analysis tools to help you.
The spot price refers to the price set out to buy or sell a security, commodity, etc. This price is also known as the market (or live) price. For Gold, for example, the spot price is a rate that may change throughout the day.
