The gold futures contract lost 1.25% on Thursday, as it retraced all of its Monday’s rebound of 1.7%. Last week it broke below the previous local low and $1,800 price level. The market gave back all of December’s advance. This morning gold is trading at new local low, as we can see on the daily chart ( the chart includes today’s intraday data ):

Gold is 0.6% lower this morning, as it is trading closer to $1,750 price level. What about the other precious metals? Silver is 2.8% lower, platinum is 2.3% lower and palladium is 2.4% lower today. So precious metals are lower again this morning.
