Gold Prices & Charts

First a word about how gold is traded and how prices are quoted

As you probably already know gold is a commodity. Commodities trade predominantly using futures contracts. Without going into too much detail here about futures contracts, futures contracts are settled on a particular date in the future. So you will often encounter prices that either use that date in the future (the forward price) and other times encounter a price for the contract settling today (the spot price).
