| Check | What we suggest |
|---|---|
| Platform | MetaTrader 5 (MT4 only with the legacy v1.6 build) |
| Symbol | XAUUSD, with whatever suffix your Swissquote account uses |
| Spread on gold | Ideally under 25 points ($0.25); Raw or ECN accounts are usually cheapest |
| Account size | From about $1,000 on USD accounts, or from $500 on cent accounts |
| Leverage | High enough that margin stays a small part of the balance |
| Uptime | A VPS, so MetaTrader runs 24/5 |
Test on a demo account first and use settings you can afford: automated trading can lose money.
