Risks of investing in gold

First, the risk of foreign investment

It is understood that before the emergence of the domestic delayed settlement business, the domestic gold market is actually in a semi-closed state. At present, only a few domestic institutions are allowed to participate in the international gold market. However, the agent is not allowed to other institutions and individual investors to invest in the international gold market, many agents of foreign gold investment company, in fact, is to play the ball; at the same time, the investor has to face a lot of problems, such as the agency mismanagement of the company, unable to fulfill the contractual agreements, as well as the agent of the customer transaction brokers for their own interests to the detriment of the interests of the customer, such as frequent transactions.

Second, operational risk control

The majority of investors are basically by themselves to carry out investment operations, investment psychology has an important role in the cognitive and operational process of investors. Strictly set "take profit" and "stop loss", do not leave it to chance. Must have a clear desire before ordering: bullish and bearish, stop profit and stop loss, etc. But we can not be completely limited to this. But we can not be completely limited to this, because the market changes at any time, the mind with the market adjustment is the most important.

Third, the risk of real gold repurchase

For investors, the biggest obstacle to investing in gold lies in the buyback channel is not smooth. It is understood that foreign gold repurchase volume accounted for about 20% of the total demand, but in China, this proportion is still single-digit. Solve this problem on the one hand need some support on the national policy, on the other hand also need some gold businessmen to do related promotion.

Fourth, the network technology risk

Network risk, network trading business and a large number of risk control work are done by the computer program and software system, so the electronic information system technology and management of security has become the most important technical risk of network trading operation. This risk comes from both uncertain factors such as computer system downtime and disk array destruction, as well as digital attacks from outside the network and factors such as computer virus damage.
