Is that symbol for a particular month's contract? If so, the volume might have something to do with the contract becoming front-month.

Volume in GLD not confirming the rally.

Golden,
That is an interesting approach. Of course the people who buy futures are different time framers than
people who buy GLD.

How well does that analysis work for you? I've been meaning to do a study on this...

Volumes in both GLD and GDX often confirm golds trend.

And they are currently not confirming, which is why I am suspect of the current rally.


Please let us know the results of your study.

The gold STOCKS need to get out of their tight sideways range (as can be seen easily on the weekly of the $XAU or $HUI) before I can get excited about gold making a significant move (either up or down). Until that happens, it's all just noise and volatility.
