NEW YORK/LONDON (Commodity Online): Gain Capital Holdings Inc, a global provider of online trading services, announced that its forex.com UK subsidiary had added spot metals to its MetaTrader 4 platform.

Clients are able to trade gold and silver on a margined basis, with spreads currently as low as four cents. The two metals products are in addition to the currency pairs currently available on forex.com’s MetaTrader platform. 

forex.com added metals to Forextrader, its own proprietary platform, earlier this year.

For many clients, the trading of spot gold and silver will be a natural extension to their foreign exchange trading, as the precious metals market is driven by several factors that currency traders typically follow, including the strength of the US dollar and the price of oil, said EMEA.

forex.com has a unique MetaTrader offering that provides an EA optimized environment, including micro lot trading and hedging. It also gives Free EA hosting services for qualified accounts, proprietary daily market commentary and analysis from forex.com’s global research team, personalized customer service, 24-hours a day during market hours, the ability to fund and hold account balances in Sterling, Euro, or dollar, the additional benefit of segregated funds protection with a Financial Services Authority (FSA) regulated firm.
