Today, Bitget CFD Chief Analyst Lewis Huang pointed out in an online live broadcast themed "Logic of Gold Trend Analysis" that this week's market focus will be on the U.S. May PCE Price Index and the final value of Q1 GDP.Previously, CPI and PPI data reached new highs, non-farm employment showed robust performance, and signals of inflation rebound combined with the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance have led the market to gradually digest rate hike expectations. He emphasized that Waller has clearly stated that controlling inflation is the top priority, and the interest rate dot plot shows that rate hikes in 2026 are becoming an internal consensus, and the market needs to prepare for a higher and longer-lasting interest rate environment.Regarding the gold trend, Lewis Huang stated that due to the impact of geopolitical conflicts driving up energy prices, the overall year-on-year increase in the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index may rise to 3.4% or even higher. If the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index rises unexpectedly, the U.S. Dollar Index will gain strong momentum, while non-interest-bearing assets like gold will face weakening risks. He suggests that CFD traders closely monitor inflation expectation differentials and flexibly capture opportunities for U.S. dollar bullishness or guard against gold downturns.

According to the official announcement, the Gate TradFi contract metal section has launched 4 CFD trading pairs: XAL (Aluminum), XCU (Copper), XNI (Nickel), and XPB (Lead), supporting a fixed leverage of 20 times. In addition, the stock section has launched 24 contracts for difference trading including SPYM (State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF), DIA (Dow Jones Industrial Average SPDR ETF), GLD (SPDR Gold Trust ETF), XLK (SPDR S&P 500 Technology Sector ETF), XLF (SPDR S&P 500 Financial Sector ETF), EEM (iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF), LQD (iShares USD Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF), ALAB (AstraZeneca), QQQM (Invesco NASDAQ 100 Mini ETF), IONQ (IonQ), TER (Teradyne), ABT (Abbott Laboratories), CVS (CVS Health), ADSK (Autodesk), CBRS (Cerberus Systems), STM (STMicroelectronics), CCL (Carnival Corporation), MCHP (Microchip Technology), BSX (Boston Scientific), COF (Capital One Financial), BX (Blackstone Group), AXTI (AXT Inc.), and FLNC (Fluence Energy).

Bitget's "Fastest Gold Buying Challenge" has officially concluded. During the event, users voluntarily recorded and uploaded the entire process from opening the app to completing the XAUUSD gold CFD transaction, with the fastest record set by users at 4 seconds.From the platform data, it can be seen that the market demand for gold is expanding simultaneously. As the situation between the U.S. and Iran fluctuates between tension and easing, risk-averse sentiment continues to support gold prices. Bitget's daily CFD trading volume has surpassed $10 billion, with XAUUSD accounting for over 80% of that. The structural concentration of trading volume reflects users' preferences during times of increasing macro uncertainty.

Bitget announced an upgrade to its CFD copy trading feature, adding two new position following modes and independent risk control settings, upgrading copy trading from "simple strategy copying" to "personalized risk management." Users can establish a foundational defense that aligns with their own risk preferences while referencing professional strategies.In terms of position management, two new modes have been added: "fixed ratio copy trading" and "fixed lot copy trading." In the fixed ratio mode, the system intelligently calculates positions based on the user's capital ratio with the lead trader, achieving synchronized risk ratios; in the fixed lot mode, users can set a fixed opening amount for each trade (e.g., 0.01 lots).Regarding risk control, this upgrade introduces independent take profit and stop loss settings. Users can set take profit and stop loss amounts separately for their accounts while following any trader. Even if the lead trader is still holding the position, the system automatically executes the stop loss. Additionally, a "maximum copy trading lot limit per trade" has been added to prevent excessively large positions from being opened due to high account net worth.

According to official data from Gate, the platform's copy trading ecosystem continued to show strong growth last week. The overall trading volume of CFD copy trading increased by 24.4% month-on-month, with copy trading volume increasing by 39%; the daily average number of new copy trading users grew by 25.8%, and the daily average number of new copy traders increased by 36%. Meanwhile, Gate's contract copy trading business maintained rapid development, with the daily average number of new contract copy trading users increasing by 50% month-on-month, and user participation and trading activity continued to rise.As the industry's first platform to launch contract copy trading and CFD contract copy trading services, Gate has built a copy trading ecosystem covering diverse markets such as crypto assets, metals, foreign exchange, indices, commodities, and popular U.S. stocks, and adopts a HWM (High Water Mark) profit-sharing mechanism, allowing copy traders to enjoy a profit-sharing ratio of up to 20%, creating a fairer and more transparent growth environment for copy trading users and professional traders.In addition, the Gate copy trading platform provides multi-dimensional leaderboards for star traders, steady traders, and potential newcomers, supports one-click quick copy trading and flexible parameter configuration, and helps new users grow rapidly through trader live broadcasts and community activities, continuously practicing the concept of "allowing every user to trade like a professional trader."

As cryptocurrency trading platforms gradually extend from trading single digital assets to traditional asset trading scenarios such as stocks, gold, foreign exchange, and indices, platform competition is shifting from "asset coverage" to "trading entry points, operational paths, and execution efficiency." Whether users can discover opportunities faster, enter the market, and complete transactions is becoming an important measure of the product experience on exchanges.Recently, Bitget announced the launch of the 10-second gold buying challenge, inviting users to record the entire process from opening the Bitget App homepage to completing a XAUUSD gold CFD transaction, with a chance to win rewards if completed in less than 10 seconds. The activity showcases the changes in mobile TradFi trading paths through actual user operations, reflecting that cryptocurrency exchanges are attempting to further streamline and simplify the trading experience of traditional financial assets.According to Bitget, the platform has previously brought TradFi to the first-level entry of the App homepage, covering traditional asset trading scenarios such as gold, stocks, foreign exchange, and indices. Compared to the past, where traditional asset trading typically required completion on independent platforms or through multiple entry points, Bitget aims to allow users to engage with various asset types more directly within the same platform through a unified entry point and optimized mobile processes.
