I also thought about mentioning PMPIX, which is a leveraged mutual fund comprising gold producer stocks. But the miners don't always correlate very well with the price of gold itself. ["The investment seeks daily investment results that correspond to 150% of the daily performance of the Dow Jones Precious Metals index. The fund commits at least 80% of assets to equity securities contained in the index and/or financial instruments that have similar economic characteristics. It employs leveraged investment techniques and may use sampling techniques in seeking its investment objective."] It is easy to follow PMPIX during the day because it's 150% either way of ^DJGSG:

Also, one can buy calls on XAU, but that is also tied to gold producers rather than gold itself.
