I designate this thread for my brain to dump numbers. If you like numbers, read on. If you don't, go to another thread.

Looking at percent changes broken down into days prices went up and days prices down:
Gold
Up: 0.94%
Down: 0.91%

Silver
Up: 1.62%
Down: 1.67%

Platinum
Up: 1.09%
Down: 1.14%

Palladium
Up: 1.72%
Down: 1.57%
 
Palladium sticks out, also has lowest correlation to the DXY.

Looking at correlations, here are the correlations between daily metal prices:
G:S 95.21%
G:PL 79.00%
G:PA 88.37%
S:PL 80.21%
S:PA 94.63%
PL:PA 82.95%

Correlation between daily percent changes in metal price:
G:S 75.00%
G:PL 56.80%
G:PA 46.65%
S:PL 57.55%
S:PA 52.73%
PL:PA 57.62%

Interesting, general prices are much higher correlated than daily price moves.
 
sadly numbers dont work for me

geometry kinda does and it leads into numbers

but i get off on visual / pictures

spatial awareness but no good with facts n figures

come here my pretty (-;
 
Multiple Linear Regression Equations:

Gold = 149.33 + 49.57*Silver + 0.12*Plat - 0.58*Pall
with an R Square of 0.914
This would imply today's Gold price should be $1,932.04

Silver = -3.356 + 0.0119*Gold -0.001*Plat + 0.0263*Pall
with an R Square of 0.958
This would imply today's Silver price should be $32.39

Platinum = 523.77 + 0.358*Gold + 1.601*Pall - 11.738*Silver
with an R Square of 0.703
This would imply today's Platinum price should be $1,784.61

Palladium = 40.35 - 0.102*gold + 19.323*Silver + 0.099*Plat
with an R Square of 0.916
This would imply today's Pallidumprice should be $658.48

Interestingly, palladium and silver seem to be close to predicted values. Gold and Platinum are showing to be undervalued, but the R Square for Plat is not as strong.
