SYDNEY, July 21, 2026 – ACY Securities has introduced the PAXGUSD CFD, a new trading instrument that enables clients to trade CFDs on tokenised gold against the US Dollar 24 hours a day, seven days a week across MetaTrader 4 (MT4), MetaTrader 5 (MT5), and the ACY Trading Platform.
Unlike standard Spot Gold (XAUUSD), which closes over the weekend, the PAXGUSD CFD gives traders continuous exposure to gold price movements outside traditional market hours. The addition provides traders with a way to hedge existing positions or respond to global economic developments as they occur on Saturdays and Sundays.
PAXGUSD tracks PAX Gold (PAXG), a digital asset backed by physical gold, where each token represents one fine troy ounce of gold held in London vault storage.
Continuous Access to Gold Price Movements
Gold remains a core market during periods of macro volatility. However, geopolitical events, central bank announcements, and weekend news cycles frequently occur when traditional spot gold markets are closed.
With PAXGUSD, ACY Securities allows traders to manage market exposure without waiting for the Monday morning market open.
Ashley Jessen, COO of ACY Securities, said:
“Markets do not pause on Friday afternoon. Significant geopolitical and economic shifts can happen over the weekend, leaving traders unable to adjust their positions until traditional exchanges open.
Adding weekend trading through PAXGUSD gives our clients greater flexibility to manage market exposure and respond to changing conditions in real time. It is a practical addition that reflects how traders operate today.”

Gold Market Volatility in 2026
Gold has seen substantial price swings throughout 2026, driven by changing interest rate expectations, inflation data, and international political developments.
In January 2026, gold gained up to 28% before retracing the full move by early February. The market subsequently experienced a 22% rise over 27 trading days, followed by a 23% retracement over the next 21 days.
These rapid price movements highlight the speed at which market conditions can change. For traders holding spot positions, weekend pricing via PAXGUSD offers an additional tool to track sentiment and execute risk management strategies before Monday trading begins.
Expanding Gold Trading Options
The launch of the PAXGUSD expands ACY Securities’ existing range of precious metals, CFD products. The broker previously introduced regional gold contracts denominated in grams and taels to support local market trading conventions across Asia and the Middle East.
Clients can now trade a broad range of gold contracts, including:
