Two feeds. One hedge. One credit.
Gold Carry runs on two gold feeds that quote the same price. Our trading desk buys one and sells the other in equal size on your account. The position is flat. The sell leg carries a credit Symphony Tech pays each night. The buy leg carries nothing.
The pair
Net gold exposure
Gold can rise, fall or sit still. One leg gains what the other loses. Your balance does not move.
Carry credited
Per month, paid into your account every night. Three times on Wednesday to cover the weekend.
Fund the account
Deposit any amount. There is no minimum and no lock-up. Funds settle to your Gold Carry account on the Symphony Tech MetaTrader 5 server.
We open the pair
You don’t place any trades. Once you sign the trading authorisation, our desk opens the hedged pair on your account and sizes it for you: 2.5 lots each way per $100,000, which uses about 10% of your margin at 1:200.
Collect the carry
The credit lands in your account at rollover every night. Ask to withdraw whenever you like. We close the pair for you. No exit fee.
The whole idea
One position. One credit. Every night.
One position.Long and short gold, held together, hedged. Flat to the price, whichever way it moves.
One credit.A nightly carry on the full pair, set and published in advance. Not swap, not arbitrage.
Every night.Nothing to watch, nothing to time. The carry lands after rollover while the position sits still.

The risks you are taking
Rate
The carry can fall to the floor, go below it, be paused, or the programme can close.
Cost
You pay the spread on both legs once at entry. Close early and the carry may not have covered it.
Platform
A feed outage or a mismatch between the two feeds can leave you briefly unhedged.
Jurisdiction
Gold Carry is only offered where Symphony Tech can lawfully offer it. Your local rules may give you fewer protections than at home.
Who can open one.
Professional and eligible clients
Open an account, pass the usual checks, and the Gold Carry feeds are enabled on your MT5 login. Our desk opens and manages the pair for you.
Partners and introducers
Run the pair from a master account and let your clients mirror it. Terms below.
Retail clients, where cleared
Only in jurisdictions where Symphony Tech is permitted to offer it to retail. The eligibility check tells you at once.
Not available to all jurisdictions. Opening an account from a restricted jurisdiction is not possible, and attempts are declined at the check.
Run Gold Carry for your book.
Copy-trading partners connect a master account. The master holds the pair at 2.5 lots each way per $100,000, and every linked account mirrors it in proportion. Your clients watch the carry land in their own account every night.
Partner with Symphony TechAsked before you ask.
Where does the carry come from?
From Symphony Tech. We run proprietary trading strategies and part of what they earn funds the carry. When they earn less, the rate comes down. The gold position itself does not generate it.
Is this arbitrage?
No. Arbitrage captures a price difference in the market. Here there is none. Both feeds quote the same price. You are receiving a credit Symphony Tech chooses to pay.
What happens if gold moves 10%?
Nothing to your balance. One leg gains what the other loses. Your margin level stays where it was, less the entry spread, plus the carry you have collected.
Can the rate change?
Yes. It is reviewed every month within the published range, and Symphony Tech can set it lower, pause it, or close the programme with notice. You will always hear before it applies.
Do I need to trade?
No. You fund the account and sign a trading authorisation that lets our desk act on it. We open the pair, keep both legs matched, and close it when you ask to withdraw. You can see every position and every nightly credit in your MT5 account, and you can withdraw the authorisation at any time.
Can I withdraw?
Yes. Request a withdrawal and our desk closes the pair for you. There is no lock-up and no exit fee. Withdrawals follow the standard account terms and processing times.
Why hasn’t a broker done this before?
Because it costs the broker money. Most brokers earn swap. Symphony Tech pays it. We do it because our trading operation earns more than the carry costs, and we cap the programme at what that supports.
