Why there is big spread in Gold?

[100c�]

i dont know why the gold have a big spread..
but this big spread make it different to other pairs.
may be this due to big demand of gold...and other thing that we all know that gold give a high return if we are going to invest for long term.

Yes you are right but as per my opinion if we buy or sell 1 lot of gold which is equal to 1300$ may be and spread is equal to 1$ only which is easily recoverable and you can earn high profit in it.

I noticed that usually currency pairs have 2-3 pips spread but in gold it is biggest 10 pips, do you know why so. Bt i do love trading in gold despite this huge spread there is good opportunity to make profit.

The spread in gold is not 10 pips, it is 100 pips. The spread is that way because of the volatility of gold. Gold can move 1000 pips in 1 hour so people can easily make profits from it. Also the spread is not really in pips, but in cents, because gold is measured in terms of the US Dollar.

Gold really has volatile movements and a lot of investors to trade in these commodities, gold commodity is a favorite for those who have big capital because they are able to withstand large floating a result from price movements every day, we know that the average daily movement of gold has a range up to thousands of pips .. ..

Gold makes more movements in a day and it requires more capital to trade in gold because of its spread and since the liquidity and volatility is more in gold the spread is higher.

brokers earn money from the spread. since gold is one metal which everybody loves to trade naturally brokers will fix more spread on this commodity. and the spread also fluctutes in high volatile periods for example when it is trending upwards, the spread will be minimum if you sell

Yes, gold has high spread when compared with major currency pairs. Because, its movement is huge per day. So, you have chances to get huge profit. So, they set spread high for gold. Gold is not suitable for scalpers, its suitable for longterm traders only.

You may think gold has high spread so it will be easy to make huge profits. You are wrong my friend. We need huge equity to trade in gold and the huge spread can lead us to huge loss too. You must never forget that my pal if you are true trader.
