1. What is Physical Gold Trading?
Physical gold trading involves buying and selling gold in its tangible form, such as bars, coins, and jewelry, rather than through digital or paper-based assets like ETFs or futures contracts.

2. Forms of Physical Gold:

• Gold Bars: Available in various weights, typically ranging from 1 gram to 1 kilogram.
• Gold Coins: Issued by governments or private mints, often with a face value.
• Jewelry: Commonly traded but includes making charges and craftsmanship costs.

3. How It Works:

• Buyers purchase gold from dealers, banks, or jewelers at market prices plus premiums (for minting and distribution).
• Gold can be stored privately, in bank lockers, or with third-party vaulting services.
• Selling is done through dealers, pawn shops, or exchanges based on live gold prices.

4. Factors Affecting Gold Prices:

• Global supply and demand
• Inflation and economic conditions
• Central bank policies and interest rates
• Geopolitical events
