Gold Futures: Further gains look likely

Considering preliminary readings from CME Group for gold futures markets, traders added nearly 5K contracts to their open interest positions on Friday, reaching the third consecutive daily build. In the same line, volume extended the uptrend for yet another session, now by around 47.5K contracts.
