THIS WEEK IN GOLD TRADING
12:43PM PST GOLD FALLS THRU THE LINE AND THE 75% RETRACE POINT
12:11PMPST GOLD STARTING TO FALL RAPIDLY
UNABLE TO POST IMAGES DUE TO PROBLEM WITH BLOGGER
WILL POST LATER
WILL POST LATER
10:50AM PST DOWN FLAG COULD RESOLVE UP FURTHER BUT 800 COULD BE RESISTANCE AFTER SUCH A LONG RUN UP
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.
9:24AM PST GOLD ALMOST HITS 800, BUT TURNS BACK, NOW HOW FAR DOES IT PULL BACK?
8:06AM PST GOLD JUST KEEPS MOVING UP AS IT HAS BROKEN THROUGH THE 750 RESISTANCE AREA
7:16AM PST GOLD NOW SELLING OFF, EURO DOWN, DOW TANKING AGAIN, OIL BELOW $50
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.

8:16AM PST POSSIBLE HEAD AND SHOULDER PATTERN FORMING
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.
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.
