i use kitco's Kcast right on the toolbar, it refreshes every 5 seconds, im looking at it as i type. i didn't vote - your poll doesn't give an option for compulsive behavior.
Don't get me started on compulsive. Everytime I drive by a bank I go in and ask for all the halves they have. I have a spreadsheet I update daily for the quantity of coins I have and the buy price.
I check it about 3 times a day. In the am when I log on, at dinner after US has closed and in PM, before I hit the sack.
I do check gold and silver, as well as many other Stocks, on my ThinkorSwim platform that runs during the market day, so it is incidental rather than intentional. Besides you guys will let me know if gold goes up or down $50 overnight
I usually check Krispys updates on silver over 20 or gold over 1350 threads, I also check it against the LME (London Metals Exchange) market site, I like to tell my wife well we lost 200 dollars today, or we gained 500 dollars, tho they are only theoretical losses or gains until we sell.
Yeah. I also have Kitco Kcast on my computer too and it is on my toolbar too. I can pull up Kitco on my smart phone while I am on lunch break from work. I'm good to go. I watch the gold and silver markets almost as much as I watch the stock market.
I check on my own about 3 times/day (morning, afternoon, night) supplemented by Krispy's posts of course. TC
Once a day is enough for me, CMI Gold&Silver Inc. daily e-mail updates. If I think somethings moving of course I check the Krispy Update. Steve
