trading gold spot is maybe as or even more exciting than trading "the beast" (gbp/jpy).

i've been a real lover of those two mentioned above for a long time -the first for its volatitly and the second for the emocional link it has to humanity-.

if i had to chose i'd stay with xau/usd since is the oldest way of currency that is still current (of course all the metals but remember that gold has had more acceptance since it has been given a mystical value due to its color -in the yellow form- is the same as the Sun; it's been considered like having a piece of Sun in ur hands).

even if you don't like gold, can't trade gold -if your broker has it not available- or whatever the reason ... it's an always good benchmark when we trade the financial markets.

personally ... i am emotionally attached to it ... do not get me wrong.. i'd trade whatever bullishly or bearishly... but when i am bullish in gold ... it always gives me the chills.

for tomorrow no trades ... not until NFP plays out.. then maybe gold spot could shoot up beyond 1000 an ounce... or collapse all this 2 day rally... who knows... cya @ NFP time.

from Monday i will be posting at the end of the day a Deutsche Bank's demo statement -besides the one i've been posting-.

The objective is to compare the performance between fixed-odds and spot trading.

Since gold spot is not tradable with Deutsche Bank I decided to open a demo with MetaQuotes (aka Metatrader).

Investor : 4aatmxs (read only password)

This password will allow you to see trades in real-time.

The other fixed-odds trading will also be available through url links and manual charting.

For privacy reasons the demo was changed:
