These guides answer common Taiwan gold-price questions: gold ETFs versus a passbook, London gold vs COMEX, investment bars vs jewelry, BOT FX vs COMEX, gram/qian/tael units, how a troy ounce differs from an avoirdupois ounce, how global quotes convert one reference into local currency and weight, jewelry purity vs karat recycle gaps, why a jewelry buy, estimated sell and recycle estimate are different directions, how to read the six columns on the jewelry daily table, platinum versus white gold and silver, recycling, COMEX sessions, how a futures reference differs from the labeled spot fallback, how to read the homepage gold history chart, how to read the silver history chart, how to read the platinum and palladium history charts, and the gold/silver ratio. Each page links back to live quote pages. Reference only — not investment advice or a dealer, fund or bank board.
All figures and explanations are public-market references or theoretical conversions. They exclude dealer spread, making charges, tax, testing and fees. Not investment advice. No Product/Offer schema for shop prices.
No. Guides and quote pages are theoretical or market references: COMEX USD/oz, Bank of Taiwan FX conversion to Taiwan qian, estimated sell premium and purity maths. Confirm trades in store.
How do guides relate to quote pages?
Guides explain methods and units; the home, jewelry, COMEX, recycling and global pages show live or near-live figures. Use both together; numbers on the quote pages take precedence.
Why link to market news?
Gold reacts to rates, the dollar and policy headlines. The news page separates official briefs from site analysis. Still not a trading signal.
