The trading volume of gold typically sees increased levels from Tuesday to Thursday, especially when the markets are open and operating, and market players are consequently active. It’s not that Fridays are the busiest, they are not, however, they are so quiet as traders tend to square off positions in preparation for the weekend. But the middle of the week often retreats with the charge – economic data is released, central banks make announcements, and geopolitical events play out, all of which can spark big moves in gold prices. The clock coincides with the open hours of the main financial markets of the world, i.e. London and New York that also strengthens the combined effect with high trading volume that is also the result of that time. The time where there is a high volume of trade when trading gold, observing these patterns can increase the chances of executing the flow easily and quickly and it also provides a clear picture of the actual price of the commodity without any distortion due to the low volume that might propel the price erratically. The data is even manifested in the trading activities on retail platforms and applications. Whether you are a newcomer or a regular trader, aligning your strategy with the trend of the market is essential for successful trading. The times when market volume was decreasing not only made it more likely for your orders to take time to be filled, but it also made it difficult to gauge the market trend, so if you are to keep up with the ever dynamic gold market then the most recommended is to stick within in the middle of the weak and, if possible, strategize around those specific hours of overlap.
