Gold FAQs

What's the difference between gold CFDs and gold options on Deriv?

Gold CFDs allow you to trade gold price movements with leverage up to 1:800, meaning you can hold positions and benefit from both rising and falling markets. Your potential profit and loss depend on how far the price moves.

Gold options let you speculate on gold prices with a fixed maximum loss (your initial stake) and defined expiry times.

Options are ideal if you want to know your exact risk upfront, while CFDs offer more flexibility for longer-term positions and leverage-based strategies.

How much capital do I need to start trading gold?

You can open a Deriv account with a minimum deposit of just 5 USD. For gold options trading, you can start individual trades with as little as 1 USD. For gold CFDs, your position size will depend on your account balance and the leverage you choose, but you can start small and scale up as you gain experience.

Can I trade gold with swap-free accounts on Deriv?

Yes, we offer swap-free accounts on Deriv MT5. With a Deriv MT5 Swap-free account, you can trade gold with spreads from 36 points and zero overnight interest charges.

Can I automate or copy gold trading strategies?

Yes. You can automate gold trading using Deriv Bot or follow other traders through Deriv Nakala or Deriv cTrader, depending on your preferred approach.
