Spot and Futures
Tradings of Precious Metals are made on Spot Transactions.
Spot transactions have opposite meanings of Futures transaction in terms of investment.
Not like the futures contract which the transaction date is somewhere in the future when the contract expires, Spot Transactions are made on the spot price and there is no expiration date for the contract.
So you can hold an open position of Gold or Silver with KVB Kunlun as long as you want.
Also there is no restrictions on the trading platform, Forexstar by KVB Kunlun.
Limited leverage for Precious Metals
KVB Kunlun requires more margins for trading Precious Metals to its traders.
The maximum leverage that can be applied on the tradings is 1:100. (only XAUUSD is available with 1:200 leverage)
So in case you have set the leverage for your trading account to be more than 1:100, you may be required more margins than yo have expected for trading Spot Metals.
