Gold's chart is really strange today

Post by Storm »

Is there something wrong with the Comex gold ticker, or is it really this volatile?

Saw the same thing on Yahoo Finance yesterday, periodically it would inexplicably quote 1744. I think "Dec 11" is a clue, and it's just not working correctly.

edit: for gold quotes I usually just go to http://www.kitco.com/charts/popup/au24hr3day.html

I guess the peaks of the graph are like the spikes that impale your portfolio when it steps on the trap.
