GOLD SETS ITS SIGHTS ON $1500

Tue, 6 Aug 2019

  The June breakout above $1370 signaled a new bull market in gold. The initial surge took gold to $1442.90 before prices entered a running consolidation. A “running consolidation” has an upward bias due to enthusiastic buying versus a traditional downward sloping correction. Monday’s close above $1470 registered a short-term breakout, and this wave higher […]

  The 4-hour spot gold chart may be morphing into a triangle consolidation. If correct, then gold should hold support between $1380 – $1390 and eventually breakout above $1425 to new highs. In the meantime, silver and platinum are playing catchup exceeding their June highs.

TUESDAY REPORT JULY 9, 2019

Tue, 9 Jul 2019

  In a healthy bull market, the surprises come to the upside. Meaning, pullbacks or consolidations are brief – just a week or two. Gold has been consolidating for about two weeks; it feels like it’s make or break time. To build upon June’s momentum, both metals and miners need to break higher relatively soon. […]

MORNING GOLD UPDATE 9:10 AM

Thu, 27 Jun 2019

  Gold futures reached a high of $1442.90 on Tuesday. Prices slipped after the Fed walked back some of the markets rate cut expectations, likely profit-taking. Currently, gold is testing the first support level between $1400 and $1404. To maintain the potential for a runaway move, I think that area needs to hold. If it […]

AFTERNOON GOLD UPDATE 2:05 PM

Tue, 25 Jun 2019

  The 1-hour gold chart is backtesting yesterday’s breakout above $1416. It looks like buyers stepped in near $1417 (currently $1425.90). Spot prices would have to slip below $1416 and then break support between $1400 – $1404 to recommend a potential reversal. The final near-term support level sits at $1385. A close below that would […]

But as we are well aware, the market manipulators and algo’s are masterful at painting the tape to get people on the wrong side of […]

IS GOLD BREAKING OUT OR ABOUT TO GO BUST?

Wed, 19 Jun 2019

  Spot gold prices are jumping as I write, currently at $1387 (prices touched $1397.70 shortly ago). Where prices open tomorrow (9:30 AM) will be enlightening. Maintaining $1387 – $1397 through Friday would support a significant breakout. But if prices slip overnight and open tomorrow below $1362, I’d suspect a top and pile on the […]

  The cleanest cycle I can find is the XAU junior mining index. Prices have formed turning points every 45-trading days since September. It arrives again May 31st and should time the next low. -XAU- The 45-day cycle in the XAU has been quite accurate timing the last four turning points. The next one is […]
