Thanks in advance

US GI Goldman Sachs Commodity Index -- CME CME USD250 x Index
US GD Goldman Sachs Commodity Index -- GLOBEX GLOBEX USD250 x Index
US YG Mini Gold -- e-CBOT e-CBOT 33.2 fine troy oz.
 
Is the COMEX gold contract the one which is most traded?

yes ... comex is still the primary market ... for gold

currently the lead month traded is FEB 2006

you can however trade during the day and I guess overnight CBOT electronic gold in mini 1/3 size and also full size ( compared to COMEX sizing on each contract ) there can be higher slippage using cbot
contract compared to comex contract when the market makers get hit with too much size
( this does not happen that often though )

I am not sure if using stops with limits works on
this contract as I have never tried this approach
