wtf is going on?
1756 down to 1710?
where to next?

Its like Fiction in Real life

But seriously it shows how volatile any trading could be! and i still feel that gold should come down to 1650 or less to have a sustained shoot to new highs.

Just 1 cent of mine

That is exactly why I have been staying hedged and not playing gold for over a month.

The speed at which the price fell by nearly 50 dollars was break neck.

Trying to guess where the price will head next is futile in these circumstances.

Making a trade now equates to willingly swimming in a pool filled with great white sharks.

Maybe you are a fast swimmer, though.

well well. where are those who said revenge trading doesnt work ?


i kept hold of my short at 1435 even under adverse conditions. i was -20 pips in loss. was taking a beating. but guess what ? market falls and eventually comes my way, and now i close out my short for + 20 pips !

iam indeed, tha man.
1 trades doesn't prove anything. See after a 1000 and give me call. haha. Glad you got your money back though, it is a good feeling.

Long tym guyz hope you all are making $$$$$

Gold has behaved nicely in my opinion.respecting this triangle

Rules should be simple sell everything below 1697 and buy everything above 1758 .I have huge orders on both these levels .

Lastly this last 4h candle could very well close above 1730 it should not be considered bearish its just a range mover

after the breakout to 1756, i set a pending buy limit at 1742. jumped into profit real quick and then took my stop out even faster! oh well. all we can do is try right?

Day's like this makes me think I should pay attention to the news more. haha. Looks like there is still a lot of Demand at the 1705-1710 range.

Be afraid, be very afraid.

The best of the biggest that fail think that way until.......



Really, do as you wish. I have experience down that path though and happen to think differently.

Not much to me. Only one bounce there on a 1 minute chart - so far.

Still pretty new at gold, but I am finding that it trades very nicely technically. Much nicer than the Euro for example. What a mess.

What do you guys think about the politics behind all of this? Draghi shys away from bond buying, sinks the markets... Merkozy has not been doing much for the last however long and then they can swoop in and save the market later today?

Will there be a sharp reversal back up?

Yup. I guess it is the USD suffix on both of them combined with a loss of direction by both of them. For the last couple weeks the Euro and Gold are sloppy risk on assets.
