What is COMEX Trading?
COMEX trading refers to buying and selling futures and options on metals—such as gold, silver, copper, and aluminum—via the Commodity Exchange (COMEX), a division of the CME Group. Founded in 1933 and later merged with NYMEX in 1994, COMEX today stands as a global benchmark for metals markets.
It operates under strict regulations and offers highly liquid futures contracts—242,654,601 contracts traded on average in 2023 alone—making it one of the most active and trusted metal exchanges worldwide.
Why COMEX Futures Capture Investor Interest
- Gold & Silver Leadership
COMEX is the go-to platform for gold futures—particularly the “GC” contract—boasting exceptional liquidity even during Asia trading hours.
Its silver contracts are similarly popular, offering robust volume and attractive spreads. - Size Options for All Traders
Whether you’re an institution or beginner, COMEX provides a range of contract sizes—from standard to E-mini and E-micro contracts—so you can start small or scale up as needed. - Efficient Price Discovery & Hedging
As a regulated exchange, COMEX supports transparent price setting, allowing investors and businesses to hedge risk or speculate with confidence. - Global Access, Regional Relevance
Traders from Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Europe rely on COMEX for global exposure—and at Markifyz, we make that accessible via seamless telegram delivery

COMEX vs. Other Precious Metals Markets
While COMEX is a global leader, other centers like London and Shanghai also play vital roles. For example:
- London remains home to OTC physical metal trading (Loco London).
- Shanghai has rapidly scaled spot and futures trading volumes through SGE and SHFE exchanges.
COMEX, however, shines for its liquidity, standardized contracts, and global trust—especially valuable for arbitrage and hedging strategies.
