Trading Gold through forex rather than a futures

That depends on the Futures Broker or the CFD Provider. Some Futures Brokers can allow you to trade with margins as low as $1,000 for day trading, although you must have the full initial margin as part of the CME requirements. Some CFD/Forex providers may allow you to take higher leverage, but their spreads could be higher as well. In the end, compare broker to broker, not always product to product.
