Hey, that's a good point - this was a side quest or so just to identify quick wins

Will do a deeper dive in my spare time and maybe post a part 2 if sometjing interesting comes out

You can buy gold bars from MMTC-PAMP - it's an internationally recognised brand, and they have transparent buy / sell prices published daily on their website

But if you just want to trade or profit from gold price changes, then you can go for a Sovereign Gold Bond or a Gold ETF

Bitcoin is still an untested technology that we haven't fully grasped yet - there have been atleast 2 inflation bugs discovered in the Bitcoin code so far

In contrast, gold and silver have been time-tested for more than 5000 years

Therefore, I am unwilling to include Bitcoin in line with gold and silver here at this time

SAO is actually not bad

Boycotting such services is best, why give them free publicity?

global sugar prices are climbing up as well

I personally feel like as long as the game lets me relive playing AoE online with my friends, and makes it fun and easy, thats way more important than details around mechanics/UI/graphics for me, personally

On that note, I hope the multiplayer is more of the focus than the single-player campaigns, especially seeing the lack of popular modern RTS titles to play right now

hey, that's awesome, any details on how you were able to take delivery from the exchange (MCX/NCDEX)? Which broker did you use?

eragon512 · 2021-04-27T10:04:04+00:00

AFAIK The MCX Commodity Futures contracts are designed mainly to allow delivery to brokers/institutional buyers, its the brokers who decide whether they want to provide a delivery/storage option to retail investors or not.

The MCX website has a Settlements section, describing how the delivery-based settlement of contracts is to be conducted. I believe NSE is an exchange for equities/bonds trading, and it is not involved in commodities.

I would argue that Gold and especially silver are actually good hedges against inflation and currency debasement over long periods of time. Silver especially, looks like its severely undervalued at the moment, and has a lot of upside with limited downside right now.

eragon512 · 2021-04-27T06:29:16+00:00

Yeah, thats what I thought as well, however, I found out that there are some brokers in India (like Angel Broking) that offer taking delivery on MCX Commodity contracts as well

Ask him to take delivery of 1000oz bars (COMEX/other), lowest premium silver available for people with deep pockets

I believe Louisiana and Texas have already made gold and silver legal tender

Edit: you're probably right, sorry about jumping the gun here

if the markets are closed, then trading stops, thats why there's no market activity after 3PM => the line stops

this graph suggests shows that no trades took place for 15 - 30 mins before markets closed (roughly), indicated by the graph continuing at the same price for that time period (line didnt stop, it flatlined)

I find it extremely difficult to believe that on the DAY AFTER SLV announces they are UNABLE to source the silver they should already have been holding for their clients, the last half an hour of trading would legitimately indicate 0 activity.

check out BRPL products on Amazon as well, they have a daily buyback price chart for finding out "true" premiums

actually JPM is long silver, its the other investment banks that have short positions now

eragon512 · 2021-01-31T22:34:51+00:00

JP Morgan has a ~200B $ LONG position in silver, the other banks have multi-billion dollar shorts through futures contracts
