my reply to Reuters: Your article: Gold trades at levels not seen in two decades LONDON, May 26 (Reuters) - Gold traded at levels not seen since 1979 on Wednesday as market sentiment worsened and dealers said they expected bullion to move even lower. "The trend is obviously down, people will be selling rallies," a dealer said. Who was the dealer? Why did you not get them to disclose their short or long position?
