The Daily Price of gold is determined by London's biggest bullion banks, who agree on a price to clear their outstanding order. The London Bullion Market Association publishes this price on its website.

The price is determined on UK working weekdays at 3pm London time for gold (midday for silver, 2pm for platinum). The prices are made public at midnight. Orders are processed shortly after the price is determined using a provisional, estimated price, and then adjusted to the published price on the following working day. Place your order for gold by 2:35pm to secure the daily price shown (11:40am for silver, 1:45pm for platinum).

Open orders are only executed on days when an appropriate gold price is published.
