VT Markets launches XAUUSD247 for 24/7 gold CFD trading

The new product offers weekend and selected holiday access, 1-ounce minimum trades, zero commissions and a one-sided margin model aimed at hedged positions.

Summary

VT Markets has launched XAUUSD247, a gold CFD (contract for difference) product that lets eligible clients trade gold around the clock, including weekends and selected market holidays, subject to product availability. The rollout extends the broker's June 2026 "Bold as Gold" campaign and is designed around the idea that gold prices can move outside standard market hours. VT Markets said the product starts from a 1 ounce minimum trade size instead of the usual 100x contract size, with weekday spreads from 15 points and weekend spreads from 40 points, depending on market conditions, and zero commissions across all account types. The company also said XAUUSD247 uses a one-sided margin model, meaning clients holding both buy and sell positions are margined only on the larger side, which lowers margin required for hedged trades. Tiered leverage and risk limits are also built in to adjust maximum leverage as open positions grow and to keep trading activity within set thresholds. XAUUSD247 is now available on the VT Markets app and MT5 (MetaTrader 5 trading platform).
