Gold

Yo Ftrader! How's things working? Post some more calls, I enjoy following your work.

F-trader gave us GG, not to bore,but a great stock for noob's like myself.(except for 7/19??.

 

looks like BGO was bought out.....I wonder what price??

 

would anyone know if institutions when buying gold, use futures to prevent slippage when buying stocks/spot, in the same manner as outlined by gutsytrader in this thread

surely the institutions have to leave footprints

 

GDX ... might be worth looking at as well as XAU index

sometimes the gold market tags along for the ride when
the miners are chugging along on a buy or sell program

 

nice spike down in ZG at 6:38AM ET from 627 to 604 on >1000 contracts. either a fat finger mistake or even possibly cascading stops.
