<I wonder if the price may be hindered early next week by the Bank of England auction on Wednesday?>

I hope so. I am long gold bullion but I want to pick up some more futures if they get the price down.

It will be interesting because I think theres a lot of people hoping for a pull back so they can buy. The Bank of England auction really is insignificant in the big picture. I calculated that in order to cover the gold liabilities of the U.S. government, JPM and the other banks combined, it would take around 430 Bank of England auctions worth (at 20 tons each). I think after next weeks auction there is only one more scheduled and then the BOE is done. -g-

Many thanks to all who gave their responses and opinions in regards to my market call on Gold. I apologize that a lack of time has prevented individual responses to your posts.

cliffp, the BOE sales have been less important in their impact as they wind down, this one next week being the second last one. The BOE sales have been more likely to launch a rally than a decline in the last year or so.

Best of luck,

Roebear
