What would a better spot price widget look like?

What I like about Kitco is that they show the price for the trending three days with HK/London/NYMEX prices/hours. Since spot is 24 hours, it might end up pricey to have the current prices. I suppose if you posted a delayed 15-min or 30-min price, that'd be useful.

Then again, I wouldn't put it on the main page, maybe in the bullion sub-forum... otherwise it seems slightly tacky.

 

Peter, have you seen the chart on the NGC Home Page?

I like these...

Last I checked, they are live or active, when markets open.

 

I personally don't want to be able to see the price of precious metals, It saddens me too much Just kidding!

 

What is so important about a chart that shows the price from hour-to-hour?

Chris

 

because it's so cool.

 

Peter is just looking for something to do, everything else has already been added, touched or tampered with.

 

exactly. You can't tell someone to stop doing what he loves! He's just gotta continue...

 

I think just simple numbers would suffice.

GOLD $1,201
SILVER $16.89

 

So is watching mud dry.

Chris

 

not really. That's boring.

 

I would highly prefer if we had the amount (e.x. +1.89) as well.

 

My point, exactly! So is looking at the hourly rise & fall of PM prices.

Chris

 

I mean, once a day it's nice to check, on other hand, mud is not.

 

A daily rate is okay with an opening price, a current price and an "Up or Down".

The graph you posted shows the hourly change.......like mud drying......

Chris

 

I like 'simple'.
Current price in big bold.
Yesterday's price in smaller numbers below.

There should also be an option to disable it. Thinking about you Chris.

 

I don't know how these work, but, they appear to be simple and clear...
