HOW FAR DOWN WE HAVE COME, FOR FAR TOO LONG


What a hell of a ride these last months have been.

THE RALLY BACK UP BEGINS FROM HERE


Gold has now retraced six dollars short of 50%
of the move down from 93630 to 681.

THIS WEEK IN GOLD TRADING


Gold goes nowhere for the entire week, building
energy to spike up, which it did today with almost
no indication from other markets. Gold basically
decoupled from other markets and showed its
true potential as the only TRUE CURRENCY
in the World.

TODAY'S GOLD TRADING


Strong volume all the way up today with
very little pull back where buyers didn't move
in quickly.

2:15PM PST GOLD CLOSE FOR THE WEEKEND


Gold finishes strong for the day, week and month.

1:02PM PST DOW CLOSES UP 500+ POINTS, DRAGS GOLD UP WITH IT, DOLLAR FALLS A BIT MORE


12:50PM PST NEW DOWN FLAG FORMS


12:43PM PST GOLD FALLS THRU THE LINE AND THE 75% RETRACE POINT


It turned back up right after this shot but may
not rally
Dow rallying 15 min before the close. Dollar falling to .8808,
Euro was rallying but just dropped of sharply.

12:40PM PST GOLD DROPS DOWN TO THE TOP LINE OF THE DOWN FLAG LOOKING FOR SUPPORT



12:11PMPST GOLD STARTING TO FALL RAPIDLY

UNABLE TO POST IMAGES DUE TO PROBLEM WITH BLOGGER
WILL POST LATER

11:15AM PST GOLD BREAKS OUT OF THE DOWN FLAG, MAKES A NEW HIGH, BUT BACKS OFF QUICKLY


10:50AM PST DOWN FLAG COULD RESOLVE UP FURTHER BUT 800 COULD BE RESISTANCE AFTER SUCH A LONG RUN UP


Gold held right on the blue up trend line and
turned back at 75% on its rally up. Classic moves.
Now, will the white down flag resolve up classically too?

10:39AM PST THE DAY SESSION CLOSES DOWN, THEN RALLIES INTO ELECTRONIC TRADE


A very tough day to trade unless you were already
long. None of the other markets gave any valid
signals that would have helped you have any idea
that gold would move up this strongly.
I still think some major buyers (like China) were
involved. This was just to big and solid an up move
to be merely safe haven buying. Short covering
had to be involved at one point.
The important thing is that we are now above
750 and will probably stay above it.
Additionally, the psychological level (round number)
of 800 was pierced (not persuasively) and not just
bounced off of from below. Gold may very well
go above 800 this afternoon before the 2:15pm pst close
until Sunday at 3pm pst. Then we may see gold really
take off if more problems come about on the weekend.

9:48AM PST GOLD NIPS ABOVE 800 THEN FALLS, BUT HOW FAR?


9:24AM PST GOLD ALMOST HITS 800, BUT TURNS BACK, NOW HOW FAR DOES IT PULL BACK?


Dollar pulls back after hitting .8873
Euro sells off then rallies
Yen sells off
Bonds down from their highs
Dow all over the map
Oil staying below 50 (Jan09 front month)

8:44AM PST A DOUBLE TOP HERE?


8:06AM PST GOLD JUST KEEPS MOVING UP AS IT HAS BROKEN THROUGH THE 750 RESISTANCE AREA


Absolutely crazy! Dollar rises, Euro and Dow tank
and gold still rockets up on STRONG volume.
Nothing makes sense at all!
And now gold is starting to drop like a rock as
the profit takers move in.
It's possible that China could be buying gold, but
I have no news on that.

7:35AM PST GOLD MOVING BACK UP ON A STRONG DOLLAR, EURO DOWN AND DOW DOWN


7:27AM PST GOLD BREAKS UP OUT OF AN UP FLAG (blue) TOTALLY OPPOSITE TO LOGIC AND TAKES OUT THE PREVIOUS HIGH AT 77830


7:16AM PST GOLD NOW SELLING OFF, EURO DOWN, DOW TANKING AGAIN, OIL BELOW $50


Gold is actually moving OPPOSITE the Euro
and the Dow this morning.
Simply crazy trading counter to all logic.

7:10AM PST GOLD SPIKES UP ON VERY STRONG VOLUME


Gold moved up independent of the Euro, Dow,
etc.
It could be that some big traders wanted to get
into gold before the Turkey Day Holiday.
Right after gold topped at 77990 (the 7737 posted
on the chart is wrong), it sold down
rather quickly and is still dropping.
I have been tied up trading and moving funds
around so I haven't been able to post, but
I should be able to post some more now.
Problem is, that when the market moves so fast
I can't trade and post at the same time, and I have
to trade first.

5:30AM PST GOLD JUMPS ON THE OPENING TO THE PREVIOUS SPIKE HIGH AT 76480


Thursday, November 20, 2008

2:15PM PST AFTERNOON CLOSE


12:57AM PST


12:37PM PST


12:35 PM PST


10:39AM PST


10:25AM PST


10:21AM PST JUST BEFORE THE GOLD CLOSE DOW AND EURO FALL


9:29AM PST GOLD LOOKS LIKE IT WANTS TO MOVE UP, BUT IT'S AT THE "HIT IT HARD" LEVEL OF 750


9:20AM PST


9:16AM PST


9:06AM PST


8:55AM PST GOLD COULD GO UP TO 75640 (75%) AND STILL BE A RIGHT SHOULDER


8:21AM PST WE CAN'T HAVE THAT QUICK, EASY PROFIT DISAPPEAR, CAN WE?


8:16AM PST POSSIBLE HEAD AND SHOULDER PATTERN FORMING


This is just a possibility among many others.
We all have been wondering why gold hasn't
gone ballistic, but it hasn't because of the
manipulation, and that will continue, until
it doesn't work anymore, which it ultimately won't
Until then, we have to consider all possibilities.

8:11AM PST THE NEW PICTURE


8:09AM PST


8:07AM PST GOLD GOES HIGHER AS DOW RALLIES


7:53AM PST


7:25AM PST THE BEGINNING OF A COME BACK? NOT LIKELY, BUT POSSIBLE


7:04AM PST


7:02AM PST


6:38AM PST MARKETS ALL TRADING WILDLY, EURO TURNS AROUND AT TOP OF SPIKE, DOLLAR MOVES BACK UP, DOW BEGINS TO FALL AGAIN


6:26AM PST DOLLAR DROPPING, EURO SPIKES UP, DOW STOPS FALLING, BONDS TURN DOWN, GOLD MAY RALLY HERE


6:20AM PST GOLD ALMOST TOUCHES YESTERDAY'S CLOSE PRICE, A COMMON HAPPENING, WILL PROBABLY GO LOWER


POSSIBLE HEAD AND SHOULDERS PATTERN COMING


6:12AM PST THE LARGER VIEW


See comments on previous chart

6:05AM PST GOLD PROBABLY GOING LOWER WITH THE DOW


Gold is punching through successive up flags
and will probably have a big sell off from which
it should/could bounce back well.
720 may be the support level (see Dan Norcini),
although 715 is where the 75% retrace point is at 71490
but gold could also retest below 700 again.
Remember, CRIMINALS are running this game
and they don't want to go to jail or be executed.
They will DO ANYTHING to avoid that.
And YOU are expendable to them.

6:00AM PST AND THE SELL OFF BEGINS


5:53AM PST GOLD RISING SLUGGISHLY IN AN UP FLAG THAT RESOLVES LOWER


Dow is sinking, and gold will go with it, if for
no other reason than being sold to pay for
margin calls in equities, or just pure panic
selling to get cash.
Oil is in the 50's, may break into the 40's just
from lack of demand due to people driving less
because they're broke, rather than due to the
price of fuel.
My neighbor, the trucker, says business is very
lean except for a few military contracts to haul
heavy military things, and oil drilling equipment
to Wyoming where there is a big oil development.
But not enough work for all the truckers out there.
Trucks are getting repossessed in droves.
