They used to be on the top right, but no more.

Are they shown anywhere on the forum?

If not, where do you go to see the current prices?

Thanks

hmm, working for me. The ticker is from kitco.com btw.

once in a great while that image file with the usually up to date prices, doesn't show up.

when that happens, it's because not all the parts of this website are loading.


sometimes, the image file from Kitco will stop updating, and just freeze - when the market is open. i have seen this on some days when the market is super volatile.

Thanks for the feedback.

It was being taken out by Adblock Plus.

I went to "tools > adblock plus > open blockable items" in firefox, and removed the block. Now the ticker is working again.

2 or 3 other alternatives for the Kitco feed -

The APMex price chart runs off the Kitco API (Programming Interface). I've never seen it get frozen. The only way I know how to see it is to visit the actual APMex website. It looks like our *.gif file up in the right hand corner here on G-S.

The Provident metal prices run on about a 4 minute refresh, it doesn't change continually like APMex.

Also, Ruppert's old website had a good Kitco chart page, basically a whole bunch of indexes that are relevant to PM prices & US $ value in the currency markets.

Same here.

I remember it having problems months ago and when it disappeared I figured the admins took it down :)
