hehe thanks, I wasn't expecting anything like what happened yesterday. I was however anticipating that kind of volume from today which remains to be seen. Fundamentals seem to be in the driving seat at the moment, right now we have 'rumour' and later on today we should have 'fact'.

Got a couple of BE longs on gold and silver still open but looking to sit out most of today until we get something definitive out of Europe.

I think gold will keep going up but things don't just go in a straight line so we should be due some retrace/profit taking...
my sentiments exactly ddinov

Did you read the part that it is Iraqi money that we hold for them and not U.S. funds??
I missed that !

Looks like someone is selling big time at around 1720.

Looks like a dip, the upward momentum seems quite strong.

This suspense is killing me and these rumours and tweets are getting quite annoying..
Anything can happen.

Just read quite an interesting view over in the 'bastard' (really useless) thread:

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...91#post5073691

quite bullish on gold and silver...

Silver looking to test 36.60 and gold towards 1800-1850. 4H [TF] gave us a breakout yesterday, while still in possible flag formation - momentum looks strong..

My expectation is 1800.
But my desire is 1600.

which one seems more practical at the moment?

Range trading?

I think one might be able to scalp, but I don't see a newly established range just yet.

Let me know what you see because I am not experienced.

As far as I can tell, the advance of gold's price has continued and this breakout has brought us into new territory.

If I saw a clearly defined range, I would have de-hedged at re-bought from below.

Just be careful...

I'm starting to believe those calling for something like 1750 (or 1765 even) before any significant drop.

The market has an amazing ability to do the opposite of what one would like.

Or maybe not.

Inconsistency is the new consistency.

Predictable is the new unpredictable.

I think this EU meeting has a few hours to go still. I read it might go way into the asian session

I've got used to seeing gold as a risk on instrument lately, can we speculate now that's shifted back over to a safe haven?
Maybe...I was watching the dollar index with the price today....they were for the most part mirroring each other.
Dunno if that is a really good way to measure if it is a safe haven though....maybe one of the seasoned traders on here can provide a better answer.
As they print more money out of thin air...gold should go up and the value of the dollar down.
