Key points :

Gold can be traded on Pepperstone, MT4, MT5, cTrader and TradingView.

Gold in the spotlight as trading rises
Pepperstone's margin cut comes against a backdrop of increased activity in the gold market. The price of gold has risen by more than 25% since the start of 2025, with daily variations exceeding $50 per ounce.
Trade tensions between the US and China and political instability in some of the world's largest economies have heightened uncertainty, reinforcing gold's appeal as a safe-haven asset.
Unsurprisingly, this volatility has attracted active traders looking to take advantage of sharp price swings. By reducing its fees, Pepperstone hopes to encourage more precious metals traders to join its platform.
