How to Trade Metals
At City Index you can trade on price movement of a wide range of Metals including Gold, Silver, Copper and Platinum.
Metal prices are driven by geopolitical risk and are often seen as safe haven investments during times of heightened market volatility. You can buy (go long) or sell (short the market) depending on whether you think the price of a Metal will rise or fall.
With City Index you can trade Metals with a Spread Betting or CFD Trading account.
