A Pocket-Sized Product with Full-Sized Potential
For those looking to gain exposure to gold futures without committing to the larger contract sizes, 1OZ Futures is the perfect entry point. Representing just 1/10 the size of a Micro Gold (MGC) contract and 1/100 the size of a standard Gold (GC) contract, this new product makes gold futures trading more accessible than ever.
Why Trade 1OZ Futures on Ironbeam?
The Ironbeam platform is built for professional and active traders who demand fast execution, full market depth, and low-cost trading on a robust, futures-focused infrastructure. With 1-Ounce Futures now available, traders can enjoy the following advantages:
Precise Market Exposure
1-Ounce Futures closely track the spot price of gold, making them an excellent choice for those who want accurate market representation without exposure to larger contracts.
Long or Short with Ease
Gold markets fluctuate daily, and 1-Ounce Futures provide the flexibility to take advantage of both rising and falling prices. Whether you’re bullish or bearish on gold, you can act instantly.
Seamless Trade Execution
Backed by the liquidity of GC and MGC Futures, 1-Ounce Futures offer fast order execution and tight spreads, ensuring smooth position management without excessive slippage.
Capital Efficiency
One of the biggest advantages of futures trading is capital efficiency. Unlike ETFs that require 50% to 100% of the notional value to hold a position, futures require only 5% to 10% of the notional value as margin. This means you can control a larger gold position with less upfront capital, maximizing your buying power.
Know Your Tick Size
Understanding tick size is key to managing risk and profit potential. 1-Ounce Futures move in 0.25 increments, with each tick valued at $0.25 per move. This small increment allows traders to fine-tune their positions and strategies more effectively than with larger contracts.
