These options make it easy to look at long-term trends or focus on short-term market movements.
View market performance
Alongside the chart, you will see useful information including the day’s high and low price, the change over your selected period, and the time when the chart was last updated. You can also create a price alert here, and receive a notification when the price reaches your chosen amount.
Further down the page, the price performance table allows you to compare today’s price with previous periods, from eight days ago up to 15 years ago. You can see both the price difference and the percentage change, making it easy to understand how the market has moved over time.
Understanding the gold and silver spot price
The charting page displays the live gold or silver spot price, which is the internationally recognised market price used by those trading in bullion. The live spot price is influenced by major global markets and fluctuates throughout the trading day as buying and selling takes place. Prices can update every few seconds depending on market activity.
The gold and silver markets are open Monday to Friday, so prices will usually remain unchanged during weekends and bank holidays. The market typically closes between 22:00 and 23:00 GMT.
