Earlier in the session, gold also hit record peaks in euros and Swiss francs . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DoctorSolar 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 According to our old friend Bob Hoye: a close in gold above $1161 should trigger a move to all-time highs http://www.321gold.com/editorials/hoye/hoye042310.html Gold closed at 1167 so it looks like it could be party time for gold here. With USD going up along with gold the GBP price could get interesting. Looks like cgnao's target of 900GBP will be here soon enough. Gold up, USD up, other metals down in USD terms, stock indices down.... interesting change in the "normal" run of events. Gold decoupling from the stock markets at last? Gold and USD seen as safe haven? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dietcolaaddict 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2010 Does anyone know how to work out the options expiry date for december? Other months are OK, by the rule below, but there seems to be uncertainty over whats a holiday or not at the festive time. Help appreciated A gold futures option shall expire at the close of trading four business days prior to the end of the month preceding the option contract month; provided, however, that (1) if such day is a Friday, the expiration date shall be the preceding business day or (2) if such day is the day immediately prior to an Exchange holiday, the expiration date shall be the preceding business day. In the event that the official Exchange holiday schedule changes subsequent to the listing of a Gold futures option, the originally listed expiration date shall remain in effect. In the event that the originally listed expiration day is declared a holiday, expiration will move to the business day immediately prior. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
