ABOUT THE COMMUNITY

Real people. One market. A real community.

Midlands Gold Traders is a West Midlands-based gold trading community working in association with Marriott Gold Trading — the MGT community founded and led by Justin Marriott. We exist for one reason: to bring gold (XAU/USD) trading to real people across Birmingham, Walsall, Wolverhampton, Coventry and everywhere between — with live rooms, honest education and face-to-face community, not anonymous usernames and hype.

IN ASSOCIATION WITH

Marriott Gold Trading — founded by Justin Marriott

Justin's journey to gold trading wasn't a straight line. A semi-professional boxer who learned that success requires discipline and mental fortitude, he went on to found multiple renewable energy businesses before finding his true calling in the financial markets. After years refining his XAU/USD strategy, he took it full-time in 2025. Now he leads the MGT community — sharing not just trades, but the discipline, structure and risk management behind them.

The Midlands community delivers the full MGT model locally: the 13-room set, the weekly published transparency results, the education programme and the real-world meetups — Two Gold trading communities. One partnership.

How we work

Transparency first. The MGT community publishes its results weekly and publicly, losses included. We link to the published data rather than paraphrasing it, and every performance claim on this site carries its source and its warning.

Your money stays yours. Members fund their own PU Prime brokerage accounts — the £300 qualifying deposit sits in your account at the broker, never with us. Our affiliate relationship with PU Prime is disclosed openly in the affiliate disclosure.

Education before hype. Anyone promising guaranteed profits is the risk. The community teaches risk management, position sizing and honest post-mortems — because members who last are members who learn.

Trading CFDs involves a high level of risk and may not be suitable for everyone; leverage magnifies losses as well as gains and it is possible to lose more than your initial deposit. Past performance is not indicative of future results. See our risk disclosure.
