Gold market intelligence
Why Gold needs its own tooling.
Gold trades almost around the clock, responds sharply to interest-rate expectations, the US dollar and geopolitical events, and regularly moves further in a session than a major currency pair moves in a day. Settings that suit EURUSD are often wrong for XAUUSD.
AlphaSync treats Gold as a primary market. The analysis, the strategies and the risk controls are each tuned for how it behaves.
