Sky Links Capital has reported increased client engagement in gold markets and expects this trend to continue into the first half of 2026, reflecting sustained interest in highly liquid assets during heightened global market uncertainty.
Based on internal platform data and current run-rate assumptions, Sky Links Capital expects full H1 2026 trading volume growth of 30% in Gold Spot and 27.5% in Gold Futures. The firm also projects Q2 2026 growth of 25% in Gold Spot and 30% in Gold Futures versus Q1 2026. Sky Links Capital added that Gold Spot currently accounts for the largest share of platform volume, followed by Gold Futures and EUR/USD.
The update comes amid volatile gold markets. Spot gold reached record levels above USD 5,500/oz in late January, before declining in reaction to changes in geopolitical conditions, monetary policy expectations, and other factors that influence traders' decisions.

Daniel Takieddine, Co-founder and CEO of Sky Links Capital Group commented:
Gold volume is a useful proxy for how clients behave when risk is front of mind. In periods of heightened volatility, trading activity often concentrates in a small number of highly liquid markets. Clients value execution quality, and the ability to adjust exposure quickly, which helps explain why gold continues to account for a large share of client activity on our platform.
Recent operational milestones have also broadened the set of client use cases being served, including the activation of the Dedicated Equity Desk for professional and sophisticated investors seeking specialist execution in both cash equities and equity CFDs, subject to instrument availability and applicable rules.

Apollo Irungbam, Head of Marketing at Sky Links Capital commented:
Sustained engagement comes from clarity and reliability, especially when markets are noisy. Clients want a stable operating model, plain-language support, and execution workflows that match how they trade across markets.
For historical context, Sky Links Capital's internal data shows Gold Spot volume grew 18.8% from H1 to H2 2025.

When Andy Ross left one of the most senior prime brokerage seats in the market to join prediction markets exchange Kalshi, I cheered him on. This was a maverick move to a maverick company.
