Derivatives Programme for Students

Commodity derivatives is categorised into agriculture and precious metals. Gold Futures (FGLD) is one of the precious metals derivatives which was recently enhanced and launched on 19 September 2022. The FGLD, which is traded on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives, was suspended in March 2021 to review its contact specifications. FGLD provides investors with greater trading opportunities amidst gold market volatility and immediate exposure to international gold price movements.

Let’s discover the enhanced FGLD from its key features and contract specifications to the trading strategies, specifically when to buy and sell the contracts and evaluate the risk and returns. All these and many more will be covered in this webinar to equip you with the right knowledge and skills in becoming an informed trader.
