Broker for Spot Gold Trading

I would like to ping the FF community for tips on which dealers are the best for trading spot gold with? Look forward to hearing from folks.

i don't trade gold but i know of a few broker's that offer spot gold, fxsol, forex.com, ikon royal they have one of the lowest spreads, and oanda.

I use both Alpari US and Oanda.

If you go with Alpari US, watch out for their data feed. Lots of unexpected pricing spikes and/or missing data at times. Never had a problem with Oanda though.

thanks guys. Any idea what these brokers charge on rollover interest?

My Advice - don't use a forex broker to trade commodities. You wouldn't buy stocks and bonds from them, why trade anything but forex?

For gold and silver trading, you can check out kitco.com if you want to take delivery of the gold (bad idea btw). For trading spot I recommend bullionvault.com. They let you trade in increments as low as .01 kg (1 kg = 32oz of gold) They house all the gold for you, you own physical gold, but do not take delivery of it. You can trade on London, Swiss, or New York markets, but you'll be trading spot prices with the other members of their vaults. Trading is lightning quick, prices are very close to the spot market, but you do pay a commission when you trade.

I'm not affiliated in any way with them, other than being a satisfied customer.

One other thing, to answer your last post - there is no interest paid when trading gold, and no rollover either. This isn't forex. You will pay charges for storage and insurance of actual gold. If you aren't being charged for this, you don't own any gold !!! Something to consider.
