In contrast to traditional trading with metals like gold, silver, platinum and palladium which are quoted against the US dollar or the euro, this group includes some revolutionary unique products:
Gold quoted against Silver (XAUXAG)
Gold quoted against Light Sweet Crude Oil (XAUOIL)
Gold quoted against S&P 500 stock index (XAUSnP)
They can be even used as market sentiment gauges, for an in-depth analysis of gold market trends,
as their performance may be more evident and pronounced than traditional instruments have,
in periods of increasing risk aversion,
which would differ dramatically from periods of rising investor optimism
XAUXAG The instrument can show differences in price dynamics and paces of the two metals, showing periods when one of them outperforms another.
The character of the price dynamics in recent years can be described as more cyclical than traditional XAUUSD and XAGUSD have,
although fluctuations are considerable in periods of economic turbulence.
XAUOIL (Gold against Light Sweet Crude Oil)
XAUOIL compares price dynamics of gold and another commodity with absolutely different characteristics, oil. Different nature of the two assets and their possible opposite reactions to considerable global driving forces make the instrument an attractive investment opportunity as its price movement can be well explicit.
XAUSnP (Gold against S&P500 stock index)
An instrument with a potential presence of negative correlation of a commodity with stocks, can provide a good advantage for trading as prices can move in opposite directions showing strong fluctuations
in response to a driving force influencing both assets simultaneously. An active strategy may be appropriate in periods of neutral trend which may be also extensive and in periods of severe fluctuations.
XAUXAG (Gold against silver). As example, let's look through its history. For the “triangle” price pattern break in August 2010 indicated the following strengthening of silver against gold. This case illustrates how successful the signal was. Exactly at the same moment the traditional instrument XAGUSD finished its consolidation and extended an unrestrained rally, rising to a historical high close to $50 per ounce
