How liquid is the gold and silver market??
Is it as liquid as EUR/USD,GBP/USD??
Not all forex brokers offer gold and silver, but many now do. If you look at the 5m charts of gold - or XAUUSD (AU is the symbol for gold) and silver - or XAGUSD (AG is the symbol for silver), you'll see that they both seem very liquid. I don't know if they're as liquid as EURUSD but they certainly seem to be a least as liquid as most of the regular pairs and certainly more liquid than more exotic pairs. However, as far as the spread goes, at FX-Pro for instance, silver has a spread of 5 whereas gold has a spread of 50. But then again, gold currently shows a daily average of 2,209 pips...
Hope this helps,
Happy trading,

Gold and Silver are liquid only when you melt them
lol @pava. My broker have both and trade them but small lots(10), I'm kinda afraid to shoot 50 stad lots at once and make the thing drop or rice.
