Metals Calendar - Futures, Options, Dates

[Dogman]

Is it normal for the metal markets to be open on Thanksgiving?

The rest of the world does not celebrate thanksgiving, is the first thought that comes too mind!

I understand that, & that the U.S. stock markets are closed. Guess I just never noticed it before.

Update for 2013, buy the dips which most commonly occurs near the expiratory dates.

i can't figure out how to set it to list options expiry dates.

according to Harvey Organ, in July, that's July 25, 2013.


does anyone have a link to a web page list of 2013 options expiry dates, like we had for 2012 ?

[Rubberchicken]

According to this it was the 19th. http://www.marketwatch.com/optionscenter/calendar

thanks !

in 2012 all the Comex Gold/Silver options expiry was 25 to 30 of the month.

it looks like this is options expiry for a different industry/ market, or they moved all the Gold/Silver options expiry forward by a week.

i'm looking for the calendar that has this format -

"July 26 Comex August gold options expiry
July 26 Comex August copper options expiry
July 27 Comex August miNY gold futures last trading day
July 27 Comex July gold futures last trading day
July 27 Comex July silver futures last trading day
July 27 Comex July copper futures last trading day
July 27 Comex August miNY gold futures last trading day
July 27 Comex August E-mini copper futures last trading day
July 27 Nymex July platinum futures last trading day
July 31 Comex August gold futures first notice day
July 31 Comex August copper futures first notice day"
