Event Summary

XM Group, an international online trading and investment firm, announced the launch of GOLD24-7, a new gold trading instrument that allows clients to trade gold seven days a week, including weekends. Unlike traditional gold CFDs that follow standard market hours, GOLD24-7 enables traders to respond to weekend market-moving news such as economic data and geopolitical developments. Stavri Morti, Co-CEO of XM, highlighted the flexibility this offers clients. The launch is part of XM's strategy to expand its product offering and follows a period of historic gold market volatility earlier in the year, during which XM provided uninterrupted trading conditions. GOLD24-7 is now available to all XM clients, who can open an account in minutes to start trading gold throughout the week.
