Not understand?better not follow my analyses!doubt clearer first, risks ++
Hi there,
To all those Medium to Long Term Gold Shorters, I have a question.
How much are you guys relying on the "Carry" Factor of the XAU Short trade?
It's known that as a non-yielding asset one of the appeals of shorting this symbol is its Swap.
I ask this question because I am short on this symbol on one broker I work with, and since the middle of December (on and off) swap has been turning sometimes Negative, SOmetimes positive, which makes to me no sense as the Interest Rate on EUR has become more or less constant and in XAU's case always Zero.
I can provide the name of this 3 brokers on DM (just shoot me a dm)
I am trying to understand the reasons behind these erratic behaviour on the swap and also why this happens with certain brokers and not others.
Any insights from experienced Carry Traders, people who know how brokers work, or knowledgeable people in general, I'd be greatly thankful !!

Normally they don't lose, but a couple of days per year they can't predict repo's shifting with less than 12 hours notice.
