In the last two weeks gold gained over $40.00 in value and settled at today’s close of $951.60 an ounce.

Here’s a chart of gold’s activity over the past six months. I’m waiting for the value to rise above $1,000.00. If it does, I might decide to sell my ounce of gold.

This week, gold slumped bellow $910.00 per ounce as falling oil prices made the metal less desirable to investors. The market closed today at $913.00 an ounce. In the last month, gold has lost a value of $77.00! Things are not looking good for investors right now, but for people who want to start investing, the price is coming down to a point where it’s safer to say that you’ll be able to make a profit.

Another week of inactivity in the gold market. The charts show that gold is in a sideways channel, meaning that the market is not moving up or down but is keeping relatively stable. This week gold stayed between $930.00 and $945.00 per ounce and closed at $931.80.

Gold is making a slow comeback. The market closed today at $939.00 per ounce with today’s high reaching to nearly $950.00.

If you’re thinking about investing in gold, a good way to familiarize yourself with the terminology is to read auction listings on eBay. Try searching for “gold American Eagle” and just start reading. You can really learn a lot about the different kinds of coins, including how their condition affects their price. And you’ll also notice that they are in high demand.

This week gold closed at $933.70 an ounce. Hardly a difference from the close of last Friday, and though it ended lower, it looks like it might recover some ground soon.

In my opinion, now is not the best time to buy gold. Though the value may continue going up from here, I would not risk buying at this price. However, experts say that gold will rise far above the $1,000.00 an ounce mark. While that might happen, I’m not one to risk that much money on an investment right now. But if you are that sort of risk taker, then hop onboard! Buy now while gold is at a six week low.

In spite of hopes for gold going up this week, the downward trend continued and gold closed lower than it did last Friday at $938.30 per ounce. I’m still hanging onto the gold ounce I bought last November, but if I sold it now, I would make a profit of about $192.00. While that would be good, I’m still hoping to make more from it.

Gold made some big moves this week. First it went up to around $990.00 per ounce, then it dropped down to about $965.00. The day after that it was back up to $980.00, followed by today’s activity, which brought the value down to $954.60. These market swings are pretty crazy. It’s taken a slight down trend over the week but, of course, it may go up again.

Gold is really making a comeback! Today, reaching a three month high, gold rose to $980.00 per ounce. It’s coming close to its record high from March 2008. It would be cool if it went over it.

Gold is still moving up, rising as high as $960.00 an ounce today. This is really cool because it hasn’t been this high in two months. Looking at a chart you’ll see that gold has been rising steadily since the beginning of the month. I’m looking forward to seeing what the market will do next week.

The good weather is finally here! And so also was my wife’s and my first year anniversary! We wrote it on the car widows and spent last weekend at a couple of places where we went on our honeymoon. It was so much fun reliving memories and making new ones…

As for gold, the last two weeks have been very good. The metal has been slowly but steadily gaining value. The market closed this week at $930.90 an ounce. So if I sold my gold ounce now I would make a profit of $185.00.
