You can take a look at this article (https://blog.moneysmart.sg/invest/investing-gol...) on buying gold (physical, certificates, ETFs). There was a previous question on whether gold is a good investment, can look at that too.
Gold should not be used as a hedge against volatility. The investment instrument needs to have low fluctuation in prices regardless of good or bad economic situation. A good hedge for volatility is government bonds or treasury bills.
