Silver AUD Description
Personal composite instrument called «&XAGAUD» reflects the price dynamics of silver against the Australian dollar.

Application field
The personal composite trading instrument &XAGAUD is used for multi-year dynamics analysis of silver against the Australian dollar, as well as for comparative analysis with another popular instrument XAGUSD. For example, by building a percentage chart for two instruments &XAGAUD и XAGUSD ( Fig. 1) on the trading platform NetTradeX, it is evident that in the 3-year period silver declined against the AUD at a slower pace than its pace of decline against the USD.
