I start today a graphic research for any relation between European Central Bank (ECB) Open Market Operations (OMO), Central Bank Gold Agreemen  (CBGA, and 1, 2 , 3) gold releases and its price market. Looking for any linked relation with movements up or down in gold price, and increases or reductions in commercial short gold contracts as open interest percentage minus long ones.
