About This Chart
The main chart tracks XPT/USD, the price of one troy ounce (31.1035 g) of platinum in US dollars. Use the toolbar to switch timeframes (1 hour to monthly), change to line or candlestick view, or add indicators such as the 50- or 200-day moving average.
Why Track Platinum?
Platinum is used in vehicle catalytic converters, jewelry, glass, chemicals, medical devices and hydrogen fuel cells. Mine supply is concentrated in South Africa, so both industrial demand and supply disruptions can move the price sharply.
Platinum/Palladium Ratio
The platinum/palladium ratio shows the relative value of the two sister metals used in autocatalysts. Palladium traded above platinum from 2017 until the two converged again around 2023–2024. Read the ratio guide.
