In my experience evaluating ABX as a trading platform, I've found that access is strictly limited to physical precious metals, namely gold, silver, and platinum. The company positions itself as a global electronic exchange focusing solely on the allocated bullion market, and does not provide access to typical financial instruments one might expect from multi-asset brokers—such as forex pairs, stocks, indices, or cryptocurrencies. This means ABX caters specifically to those seeking to trade actual physical precious metals rather than more speculative or leveraged instruments. One important factor for me is that this singular focus limits diversification options. While precious metals play a role in a balanced portfolio, the lack of other instruments can increase concentration risk if you use ABX as your primary brokerage. I also noticed there are high entry barriers for some products; for instance, a minimum trading unit for silver starts at 25,000 ounces, which may be inaccessible for many retail traders. Given that ABX is unregulated and its regulatory claims appear questionable, I am personally cautious about engaging with their services. In summary, you can only trade gold, silver, and platinum on ABX; no forex, stocks, indices, or crypto are available. This narrow specialization may appeal to institutions or experienced metals traders, but it does not provide the flexibility or security I'd want as an all-around trader.
