Happy Easter Monday, Volatility is quite interesting, but no direction has pointed out yet. still holding the Hedge from Easter Friday.
resolving the hedge ended in a total disaster, however, GOLD did finally pointing out a direction. this trade lasted serval hours as volatility is still very thin, but in the end, it paid for the Hedge-loss and added a nice 3.16% to the account.
