Track gold and silver in SGD
Short answer: metal is priced in US dollars per troy ounce. To see it in the Singapore dollar (SGD), multiply by the exchange rate; to see it per gram, divide the ounce price by 31.1035. BullionKeeper does both for every holding.
How it works in Singapore
Buyers in Singapore often compare bars by the gram and by the ounce, with prices converted from US dollar spot.
A worked example
Spot: 2,000 US dollars per troy ounce (round number)
Illustrative rate: 1 USD = 1.35 SGD
Price per ounce: 2,000 × 1.35 = 2,700.00 SGD
Price per gram: 2,700.00 ÷ 31.1035 = 86.81 SGD
For other prices, use the price per gram calculator.
Why the exchange rate matters to your gain
If you pay in SGD, your value moves with both the metal price and the exchange rate. A flat metal price can still change your SGD value if the currency moves, so record what you paid in SGD and track your gain in the same currency. See how exchange rates affect bullion purchases.
Questions
Can I track purchases made in a different currency?+
Yes. Record each purchase in the currency you paid in and view your total in the currency you prefer, so your cost basis stays accurate.
Can BullionKeeper show my holdings in SGD?+
Yes. Spot prices are available in more than 50 currencies including the Singapore dollar, so your portfolio value, cost and gain can be shown in SGD.
Are the example numbers real prices?+
No. They use a round price of 2,000 US dollars per ounce and an illustrative exchange rate, to show the arithmetic only.
