London platinum fixing prices
In addition to the platinum spot price, the London platinum fixing prices are also of importance. The term 'fix' is used in a nautical sense, as in fixing on a point, and it indicates the price at which the market is balanced. The 'fix' occurs when the buy and sell orders of the fixing brokers are matched to bring the market into balance at a certain price, which becomes the 'fixing' price or 'fix' for short.
The London platinum fix is set twice each business day. The London AM fix begins at 9:45 am (4:45 am in New York), and the London PM fix begins at 2 pm (9 am in New York). The London platinum fix is set by The London Platinum and Palladium Market (LPPM) and is widely followed to provide daily platinum price quotes. Furthermore, it is reported in major newspapers and on many precious metas-related websites. We use weekly London PM platinum fix prices to draw the charts above.

* In exceptional circumstances, GoldMoney may charge a sell fee. The purpose is to provide liquidity to the seller regardless of market conditions. For example, during rare events such as extreme market conditions, we may need to sell to a bullion dealer the metal that we purchase from a customer. If the dealer charges a fee that GoldMoney cannot reasonably absorb, the fee would be passed on to the customer. In keeping with our longstanding policy of full disclosure, if a sell fee is ever imposed, you will be advised of the fee before you transact, thus giving you the choice whether or not to proceed with the sale.
