These news isn’t that new, but for Forex traders it would be interesting to know, that Marketiva broker now offers world indexes (Dow Jones, Nasdaq 100, S&P 500, DAX and FTSE 100) and precious metals (gold, silver, platinum and palladium) trading. Metals are now part of the Commodities tab in Marketiva’s Streamster, which may hint for adding other commodities (think of oil) too. Spreads for the new instruments are higher than for currency pairs, but that’s OK, since other brokers also use high spreads on the less popular trading symbols. Spreads vary during the day and become lower during stock markets trading session periods.
