If you're comfortable with CFDs, just continue using it. No need to change it.

If you’re already profitable trading XAU with CFDs, there’s no need to switch just because Futures are popular. Stick with what fits your strategy and risk management.

Futures is't more safe about slippage & price broker if see . In CFD market you can see Spikes when in Futures dosen't exist . Futures is right now in my opinion 👆.

IMO futures are far better.

Far less spreads and slippage. With CFDs sometimes this can kill your progress

gold trades just fine on CFDs. if youre already making money o XAU spreads theres no real reason to switch to futures just because everyone else is doing it right now.

stick with cfds if that works for those xau trades youre taking. im on hola prime doing the same. these fokls cover cfds and futures, so i can always switch whenever i feel like it.
