SpreadBets.org.uk Adds a Review of the Gold Market

(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 07, 2011 ) London, UK -- SpreadBets, a website that reports on the latest developments in the financial spread betting markets, has released a new section which looks at the latest developments in the gold market.

All of the markets have been affected in some way by the ongoing financial crisis, including commodities, equities, stocks markets and foreign exchange rates.

Traditionally, gold has been seen as a safe haven in times of market turmoil. However, the price of the precious metal can be very volatile, meaning that seeing it simply as 'safe' can be a very dangerous perspective.

This is why http://www.SpreadBets.org.uk/, a financial website that focuses on spread betting, has introduced a brand new gold market review.

The new gold market review includes a comprehensive look at the gold spread betting market, considering both the positive and the negative aspects of the market.

However the review also looks at historic movements; reviewing the moves of the yellow metal over the past five years. On top of this, the review also considers at how to spread bet on gold, as well as which spread betting companies allow traders to speculate on bullion.

"The gold market is always in focus during times of economic turmoil due to the fact that it is traditionally seen as a safe haven; a hedge against economic difficulties," says James White, editor for the site.

"However, just because it is traditionally seen as a safe haven, doesn't mean that the market is 'safe'. The market can be volatile and can move against one's position very quickly. Consequently, it is vital that spread bettors understand the market, which is why we've introduced this new gold market review."

www.SpreadBets.org.uk has seen a range of improvements over the past year; it has recently been redesigned and has launched a range of new sections and guides.

"No matter what condition the financial markets are in, we'll always strive to make sure that we are the best spread betting resource around," White added.
