@Martin1983The graph shows the number of GC (gold) futures contracts.
These contracts are long and short. One party wants to sell gold (short) and counter party wants to buy (long).
For every short there must be a long.
The holders of contracts are classified into various groups. The commercials are the banks - the speculators are the hedge funds and the like.
You can see the darker bars below the line are the commercials which Net hold the opposite side of the contracts to the light coloured bars above the line - the speculators
If the banks hold a large number of short contracts it generally predicts price will fall. They have deeper pockets, there are fewer of them and they act together - there is a concentration of positions. They are short - want the price to fall and act to drop price by dumping more short contracts into the market. This is the origin of the claims of market manipulation by a small number of banks acting together to move price. Dumping 10's of thousands of contracts into the market over a matter of minutes.
Wonger came to the forum last year stating silver would fall - he based this on the build up of short positions with the banks. Price did fall a bit but nothing like he was predicting. 
Since Wonger predicted the collapse in the gold price the 'open interest' - the number of open contracts held has reduced. You can see the green line - it peaked in mid January and has declined since. We have seen no end of commotion in the paper markets - i think it unlikely banks will want to ramp up short positions. We have seen Scotiabank announce they are pulling out of the gold trade. There has also been mentioned several times that the banks use the COMEX futures market to hedge their positions in the LBMA over the counter market. So they are long in London and short on the COMEX. i have also heard comment that some of the long positions classified as speculators are actually commercial positions on the quiet, so perhaps the short position of the commercials is less than it seems.
Wonger has more recently changed his tack - he says  there is going to be massive deflation. That asset prices and commodities will fall in price. This he believes includes precious metals. 
We will see but i am not with Wonger in his investments.

With thanks for the advice and info from @trp, @sovereignsteve, and @LawrenceChard

Me too! I sold a load of stock last week (just before gold expiry date...see below), only to buy back in yesterday...but I don’t think I will be holding for long...you have to be nimble is these volatile times!
Expiry dates for 2020:- All sorts of weird and wonderful activities go on around these dates...I try to avoid being long at these times!

 

Yes, when you decide you want to ship your storaged orders, just send them email. They will send you separate invoice for shipping.
 
It's safe, I've never had any issue, ordered and storaged dozen times.

Actually @Roy is right, on left side are attributes of industry, wheel and hammer and on right side are attributes of agriculture, plow and bunch of ears.
