WHY SILVER
Industry consumes it, investors store it. Smaller market, sharper moves — silver rewards timing.
How it works
HOW SILVER TRADING WORKS.
A silver CFD tracks spot silver in US dollars. It follows gold's direction but with a higher beta — moves are often larger in both directions.
Half of silver demand is industrial — solar, electronics, EVs — so it responds to growth data as well as to monetary forces.

Worked example
Opening the position
XAGUSD is quoted 30.100 / 30.120. You buy 1 lot (5,000 oz) at 30.120.
Closing the position
Silver rallies to 30.650 / 30.670. You close by selling at 30.650.
Result
Price move: 30.650 − 30.120 = 0.530
0.530 × 5,000 oz × 1 lot
Gross profit: US$2,650
