Hi Neil
Thks for the reply.Can you tell me if we can buy gold at mcx just like shares bought on delivery basis, and sell them after 3-4 yrs or is it just for futures since you have said we have to hold till expiry.
Best wishes for your exams.

@rpc : Only gold futures are traded, so i dont think you can hold one contract for 3-4 years. Read the contract specs in the mcx website, as im not sure if all contracts have physical delivery on expiration.

@rocky01 : I dont have any other data source for forex man. You could post a request on this thread :http://www.traderji.com/forex/16607-where-can-i-get-free-eod-data-usd-vs-inr.html

About the question on ETF's, Exchange Traded Funds are somewhat like mutual funds in the sense that the fund value depends on the stock/commodity it owns. But unlike mutual funds ETF's are NOT managed and the underlying stock/commodity remains fixed similar to an index like sensex or nifty. You can trade ETF's like futures.

Correct me if i'm wrong but i think the NIFTY future that we trade is an ETF similar to the SPY (aka SPIDER) of united states which is based on the S&P index.

advantages of an ETF:
1) Not Managed (well that could be a disadvantage for some)
2) Commissions and other fees are low compared to mutual funds (no paying fund managers etc.)

Hope this helps
Happy New Year 2010 to all

Hi All!
My source for gold prices is:
http://stooq.com/q/d/?s=xauusd
It is a Polish site, but the most important part ("Download data in csv file..." in the bottom of the page) is in English
I use it with chartoasis.com's technical analysis SW, it recognizes the format automatically.
Hope this helps you.
