    what happened tonight at 9:36-9:40 pm EST in CBOT gold ?

    today is the fiscal year end for some Asian shops and the talk is that they would gun oil and gold to make the best of the year end........ and on a broader note, gold and crude are reacting to the fact that the Iraq war is lost (as if it were anything else) and Iran and Syria will run the...

    What happened to gold at 6:39EST (13 nov)?

    2 weeks ago, the S&P's on Globex had a similar spike to 1399.00 on a Sunday nite.... so far as I can tell, all of those trades were made good............... it looked like a mis entered limit order, no other reason as to why anyone would have run it up 20 S&P points on no news...........an...
