以下是计算贵金属交易所需保证金数额公式的解释示例：
| 黄金(USD) - XAUUSD | 白银(USD) - XAGUSD | Platinum (USD) - XPTUSD | Palladium (USD) = XPDUSD | |
| 头寸大小 | 1标准手数 | 1标准手数 | 1标准手数 | 1标准手数 |
| 帐户杠杆 | 1:100 | 1:100 | 1:100 | 1:100 |
| 交易价 | $1,244.250 | $15.835 | $982.006 | $596.601 |
| 保证金要求 | 1% | 1% | 1% | 1% |
| 每份合约总盎司数 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 |
| 总曝光 | = 15.853 * 5000 = $79,265.00 | = 15.835 * 5000 = $79,175.00 | = $982.006 * 100 = $98,200.60 | = $596.601 * 100 = $59,660.10 |
| 保证金要求 | = 1% * $124,425.00 = $1,244.25 | = 1% * $79,265.00 = $791.75 | = 1% * 98,200.60 = $982.01 | = 1% * 59,660.10 = $596.60 |
| 保证金要求 | @ 1:400杠杆应用= $311.06 | @ 1:400杠杆应用= 791.75 * 0.25 = $197.93 | @ 1:400杠杆应用= 982.01 * 0.25 = $245.50 | @ 1:400杠杆应用= 596.60 * 0.25 = $149.15 |
