Gold and silver prediction markets

Specify the metal, reference price, currency and observation time.

Writer: Ian St. ClairEditor: Mike Epifani

A precious-metal price question is incomplete without a benchmark. The metal, currency, unit and reference time determine the measured value. A displayed instrument price cannot be substituted for another benchmark merely because both are labeled gold or silver.

LBMA supplies a primary reference route for its precious-metal pricing framework. The contract must identify the particular benchmark and observation it uses, including any fallback if the normal source is unavailable. This page is an interpretation guide, not a directional outlook or a price forecast.

Read the measurement rules

  • Record metal, currency and unit.
  • Identify spot, benchmark or another expressly named instrument.
  • Check observation time, holidays and fallback provisions.
