Trading gold for profit - just like when you're trading any financial market - means buying gold low, selling it high, and knowing how to spot the difference. Countless books, websites, courses and seminars claim they can give you this gold trading edge. But few will remind you that the No.1 rule of making money - whether you're trading gold, coffee, Dow futures or currencies - starts with cutting your trading costs as low as you can. Because how can you buy low and sell high if you keep paying fat brokerage fees every time you trade? Whether you want to Trade Gold as a long term investor, or as an active trader, we can show you a solution which makes real, high-integrity gold bullion available to you. What's more it both reduces your costs and increases your safety.

Trade Gold and Earn the Spread

If you want to Trade Gold actively and profitably the bottom line will be cost. You cannot trade gold and make a profit if you are always paying commissions and/or the spread. It's as simple as that. Unlike any other way to trade gold BullionVault allows you to undertake active gold trading like a market professional, by quoting prices to other people, rather than having to take what's on offer. This allows you to trade gold and earn the spread. For example, on a price of $1,600 you yourself might bid $1,599 and offer at $1,601. As a liquidity provider you earn the $2 in the spread. Anyone who wants to trade gold can provide liquidity on BullionVault. BullionVault's most active traders pay just 0.05% commission (that's 85 cents on a $1700 ounce) when they trade gold. If they're picking up a $2 spread and paying 85 cents each side, then round-tripping an ounce of gold on a stable $1700 price earns them $0.30. Yes - that means that on an unmoving price you can earn money by providing liquidity. There are very few systems in the world which will let you access the spread. Spread access is what really gives you the ability to trade gold and profit, and that's why most businesses keep it for themselves. BullionVault is the cheapest, safest, and most accessible worldwide market for gold trading of privately owned bullion. There is no fairer proposition to the gold trader. But please, always be aware that if you trade gold it can be a risky business if markets swing against you.
