    How is that these two graphs of gold and silver can manage two different directions? This is not new either, it seems to be the rule rather than the exception when I view this particular chart.

    Because the value of AUD is increasing....

    That means for a 'drop in Gold price in AUD' it could merely mean a 'flat Gold price in USD'. It appears more in the Gold charts because of the high value (~1500) so small fluctuations seem larger on that scale.

    Yep, the AUD went from 1.07 to 1.075 in the same space. Rose 1/2 cent.

    Hence gold in AUD plummeted.

    Sure, but why didn't silver at the same time?

    What I mean is, look at the 2 silver charts for AUD and USD, then compare them to the gold AUD and USD for exactly the same period. It is incongruent, and it is often this way ie. every day.)

    It did, 4am NY time. Both charts drop. It's the scale that is different.

    OK, Does this make my observation relevant?

    Top left - Silver
    41.95 - 42.80 - upward movement

    Bottom left - Gold
    1401 - 1399.5 - downward movement

    Top right - Silver
    44.79 - 46.01 - upward movement

    Bottom right - Gold
    1497 - 1504.64 - upward movement

    The obvious anomaly that catches my attention is........the left gold graph does not match the others.....it moves downward against the other 3 graphs which all have a similar pattern regardless of comparative dollar values. i.e. bottom left graph is out of synch.

    The value of 41.95 AUD is 44.79 USD (1.067) and 42.8 AUD is 46.01 USD (1.075)... for silver.

    Gold 1401 AUD is 1497 USD (1.608) and 1399.5 AUD is 1504.64 USD (1.075) ... for Gold.

    Really its that simple...if you don't understand this then I suggest you go to bed, get some sleep and then you'll get it tomorrow morning after a coffee.
