Although the recent pattern ingold has become ugly, there should be a dead-cat bounce in the metal in thenext couple of days. Gold has been in a consolidation pattern for months andonce again the metal is coming down to the bottom end, which suggests a bounce.
Even if gold headed lower, whichis expected, a healthy bounce to $1,330-$1,340 is in the cards. Gold has becomevery oversold the last four to five days, falling about 3% since hitting$1,360. The bounce should come from between $1,310-$1,315 and should be a fast,vicious rally that will come out of nowhere.
Silver is trading midrange,holding support above its most recent breakout level. Look for silver to remainstrong and bounce with gold. We still like the long-silver, short-gold tradeand will look to take advantage of the expected bounce in gold.
