OK: Fits both order books4.7 / 4.0 bp
Entry at $10k a leg, taker fee + slippage. Closing costs about the same.
Note: Margin at max leverage$1,000 + $10
Pacifica 10x, MEXC 1000x. Keep about 2× this so a sharp move doesn’t liquidate one leg.
Watch: Payment intervals differ1h / 4h
Payments land at different times. Close right after the slower leg pays.

XAU news

posts that mention XAU or Gold, from every exchange

11-05 22:00	Vest Markets	Other	TLL update on Vest. Temporary Leverage Limits now run from 5 minutes before to 1 minute after Nonfarm Payrolls, CPI, PPI and FOMC. In that window, all indices and FX pairs cap at 5x, and $GC and $SI at 3x. Single stocks drop to 1x on their own earnings. The Vest team will continue to work to reduce the TLL window and build the best news trading experience possible. Full details in documentation ↓ @VestExchange on X ↗
11-05 16:25	BingX	Other	Gold is up two days in a row. It's back above $4,100 as the US dollar weakens and bond yields ease. When those two drop, gold usually gets a lift. Are you holding any gold right now? @BingXOfficial on X ↗
11-05 16:00	Ondo Perps	Other	$5,000,000,000. Gold (XAU) perps have surpassed $5B in cumulative trading volume. $1.9B in gold perps were traded in October alone. The world’s most-traded markets across commodities, stocks, and indices have no closing bell on Ondo Perps. @OndoPerps on X ↗
11-05 15:09	RISEx	Other	Since August, trading on RISEx has become much cheaper with far less slippage; the pool is being adjusted to support these improvements. $100K orders are cheaper across $BTC, $ETH, $XAU, $SPY and $QQQ. Index ETFs improved most, about 85% cheaper, with gold about 65%. $200K $SPY and $QQQ orders couldn’t reliably fill within 20 bps in August. By October, they were closer to 2 bps. Your size continues to add depth to the book, and every large order brings in more liquidity and raises the bar for what RISEx has to deliver. RISEx is still the only venue that pays slippage back. Keep sizing up. @risextrade on X ↗
