YFinanceUS has recently added commodity prices
Investing >> Market Stats >> Commodities
http://finance.yahoo.com/futures?t=metals
1 or 5 day charts only - no history.
Comex gold future is the most viewable of the two gold futures charts
http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=GCZ08.CMX
== 100 Oz Quoted in USD
If you do manage to download and create a history you will have to
deal with rolling over contracts and creating continous data.
Gold prices can only come from the commodity exchanges where they are
traded af futures ... spot price is approx continuous price?
Spider Gold tracker should be close to that == symbol GLD
http://www.spdrgoldshares.com/
click on USA tab
history available at Yahoo for GLD
The problem is spot gold trades 24 hour - trackers and indexes only
trade the exchange hours where they are listed, say 9.30 - 1600
Enter gold into the Yahoo search >> click on show full list for gold
to see many indices, funds, futures for gold that Yahoo quotes (alas
not all info is there but enough to show the lay of the land).
YahooFinance UK has a different search tool that sometimes provides
different or additional info - it is hard to find ... just enter
abcdef into the quote box at YFinanceUK >> qet quote and you will be
directed to the real search tool there.
I made a suggestion to Tomasz a while ago to take some more data from
the Yahoo site, via AmiQuote, so he has considered the proposition
and decided against it.
Can you upload your data to a website?
Exchanges own all data.
They only it on to registered parties who are approved resellers,
under certain terms and conditions.
Every data provider asks users to sign a declaration not to
redistribute data ... so does Yahoo ... Yahoo buys data from
reputable providers who want to corral what they provide (I think
even the free ones like EOD data do that also ... it is not really
free .. all approved data distributors pay for the data and have to
recoup costs somewhere . ... payment is solicited in round about
ways ... brokers commissions, ads, data upgrades etc).
Yahoo doesn't seem concerned by data downloading software that is in
the market though.
The providers don't seem to be concerned enough to close their Yahoo
account either.

that probably AmiQuote could do the same thing with the right
settings.
