We keep getting "surprise" inflation news but the gold stocks drop.
I guess It's about liquidity.
Seems like bargains are being built.

Hi RD, thanks for posting JC's charts. I have the greatest respect for his TA skills. Having said that, if one re-draws his trend lines to begin in Oct 06, the uptrends remain intact. XAU is resting right at the key pivot, and GLD has room to drop to 63-64 before violating the rising T/Ls. Another scenario: we may see a quick kiss-back to his steeper lines tomorrow, followed by another drop on GLD next week, before resuming the uptrend. My target remains GLD 72-73.

The close below the 200-day m.a. is a problem. I'm watching this closely. Right now, my feeling is to hold off and wait for a trend change upwards rather than go short. Cash is what I'm talking about.

... True, but notice what happened after XAU closed below the 200-DMA in mid-November 2006.

JC seems to use the macd cross to confirm the break. Watch for macd to turn back up.

hi beta...

I have seen your upside target for which you are gunning an GLD exit?

are you so confident about your read of this sector, you are going to hold GLD no matter how far this next swing takes it?

or do you have a line in the sand that you consider negates the risk/reward of hanging in longer.

I exited GLD short on Friday near the backtest of a rising tops t/l....waiting for more price action before I take a GLD position in either direction.
