Sky Links Capital Adds LBMA Gold Fixing, Options and Weekend Trading
Sky Links Capital expanded its gold offering by launching LBMA Gold Price AM/PM fixing, gold options, and weekend/perpetual trading. The move gives clients benchmark-linked execution around the twice-daily London Bullion Market Association reference price and broader hedging flexibility across spot gold, CFDs, futures, options, and perpetuals. The launch reflects a wider industry push to keep gold trading open beyond traditional market hours, with rivals such as CMC Markets, Match-Prime, LMAX Group, and Scope Prime already offering similar around-the-clock or weekend gold products. The article suggests growing demand for precious-metals hedging amid macro uncertainty and geopolitical risk, but Sky Links did not disclose spreads, margin, pricing, or volume data, so the immediate market impact appears more competitive and product-driven than price-sensitive.
