Gold Rush Or Gold Collapse?
All markets leave a footprint;whether traders and investors want to believe them is another story. The moneyflow and direction of markets has more to do with money flow than it does thenews and fundamentals. The problem is simple -- traders and investors can'tkeep their emotions or opinions out of the equation.
Gold is at a critical point inthe most recent cycle. We continued to read the footprint on the rally to$1,365, continually warning that a break to the downside was inevitable. Bang --gold falls hard to $1,281 and is now settling between $1,280 and $1,310.
Does gold see a rush to theupside or a collapse to the downside? This answer is not so simple, since goldis still in position to go either way. If it breaks out to the upside, it mustgo through $1,310 and hold above for a couple of days. If it breaks to thedownside, a close and hold below $1,280 is the key.
For now, the footprints arewalking in circles and any trade from here is a guess. We must let theconsolidation pattern resolve itself before committing to a directional tradeor be committed.
