XAU/USD & XAG/USD - Gold & Silver Traders Thread

Quoting EventsTrader
{quote} Very interesting. The spread usually sways me away from this pair. But twice the gains? Good info auricforecas! {quote} It's been a roller coaster. Here's my view on gold. The fundamental drivers were dragging prices down, then BOOM! The tariff delays were announced. The 1500 level was breached but it's clear that there's enough support there that it quickly came back above that support. Now I think we are at a crossroads with gold and which direction it's going to take. It's probably going to depend on risk sentiment. China came...
Tnx man.. Yeah, mine primary focus is not the spread etc.. because if we get the other parameters right, I am sure we can get some broke or even individual deal/quotation for the spreads also This has to be researched of course, but only if the further research/history will show the benefit of XAU/EUR vs. XAU/USD...
It has so far, at least for the last months that I've been tracking it.. As for twice the gains... it is because of the correction.. but we see that the gold got away so much better against the EUR than to USD..

See here.. https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/XAUUSD/
I dont know if you see the same times.. or the website corrects the timezones dependin on your GEO IP, but here it goes...
opening (from the chart/link above) 12AUG19 00:00 1,499.99 (reference price), PEAK today 1,532.74 (+2,18%), price NOW (after correction or "mini-crash"): 1,501.81 (+0,12%).

And here... https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/XAUEUR/
12AUG19 00:00 (reference price) 1,338.71, PEAK today 1,368.25 (+2,20%), price NOW (after correction or "mini-crash") 1,344.17 (+0,40%).

Hope I got it correctly.. Do you see? Might not be much difference at peak, but seems much better to have in xau/eur, assuming (slow) eurusd downtrend, that is happening atm.. for quite some time
Can you afford to take that chance?

{quote} it depends a lot .. but I am eyeing a possible swing in this pair .. with small lots, because all pairs with Gold wow are very volatile ... and Aud may present me a valuation in the coming days...but I'm eyeing sales in that pair.
Nice! Please keep us posted... I am closing in the decision on the XAU/EUR TE... because eurusd (if any) pair seems to be my speciality...
If you have a clue on AUD, that might be even better... I myself prefer to stick to eur/usd related trades for the reason I mentioned. But I do suspect that there are many opportunities in other currencies that might be overlooked.

Very well said
I also think we are still standing in between of both directions. However if US is calm I think China will not go for any confrontation which reduces risk and supports fundamentals.
This may be my own sentiments towards south movement
Gold good morning... MM took full advantage of the USD news... but don't be fooled - there is a lot of cheap money out there. Global economic slow down!

Its live, I am holding it. I think it will retrace again to 1500 before it will properly go up.

yeh, it took long time, I thought at least in TKY session it might reach to its normal levels from the dip to 1510 range. Now I will wait for next USD retail sales numbers. I think it will be screwed!!

Good man....what's your target/plan with this....

{quote} Good man....what's your target/plan with this....
I trade only in one direction since I weigh 50% to fundamentals. I dont trade before the releases. Only after it gives clear direction.

If retails sales will be good I will plan for dip buying near H4 support. If they are screwed may be at replacements I will buy. I am bullish on the Gold till next 2020 Q1. I think it will reach upto 1600 by that time.
