NEW YORK (TheStreet) —
The gold price got sold down five dollars or so in early Far East trading—and then traded flat from about 10:20 a.m. Hong Kong time until the 8 a.m. London open.  Then the selling pressure began anew.  The low tick came about 12:40 p.m. BST, which was 7:40 a.m. in New York.  The price spent the rest of the day chopping quietly higher, gaining back about five bucks of its earlier loss.

The high and low ticks were recorded as $1,181.60 and $1,198.50 in the April contract.
