Investment Strategy

Regardless of which investment strategy you will use, be sure you have a general goal before entering the market. Identify whether the market is trading in range-bound or trend trading. Set your entry and liquidation prices, investment duration, and objective.

Fund Management

Manage your funds with discipline. A stop loss must be set while the price movement is moving against your expectations. Set a tighter stop loss if the price is moving in a tight range. In contrast, you may leave more space to stop-loss if the price is moving in a wide range.

Risk Management

Under normal market conditions, the daily price fluctuation of gold is around 1-3%, similar to most blue-chips stocks. However, as the majority of investors will trade bullion on leverage, the profits and losses will be amplified. We recommend you to manage your leverage ratio within your own risk acceptance range and to reserve sufficient funds to protect your investments against unfavourable price movements.
