Notional Value vs Cash Investment

A notional value represents the gross market value of the underlying quantity. It should not be confused with the amount of money paid for a physical purchase or the margin posted on a leveraged futures position.

Why the Unit Must Match the Price

If the gold price is quoted per ounce, quantity must be ounces. If it is quoted per gram, quantity must be grams. The calculator does not perform unit conversion automatically because using an inconsistent unit can create a large valuation error.

Always verify the unit attached to the price before entering the quantity.
