What is precious metals trading

On Alpari (UK) MT4 Micro and Classic accounts, you can trade precious metals against USD: gold (XAUUSD) and silver (XAGUSD). When trading these products, you will essentially be buying the metal and selling the USD (if long) or selling the metal and buying USD (if short).
