Price is moving higher into resistance, while volume is less and less - so far.

If volume doesn't pick up, in next day or two, I would be cautious.

It may sound obvious or trite, but sometimes it's worth stepping back a bit and remembering that a trend is a trend until it is broken. The question then becomes how do you define a trend break....

In a downtrend I tend to look for lines that were resistance becoming support and vice versa in an uptrend. Using forks my definition of "lines" are not horizontals but instead are lines along the angle of the fork.

By this definition, on daily timeframes both GC and SI are still in downtrends. That does not mean that they have not bottomed, it means that to my mind they have not yet changed trend......

beeb

EDIT - just to be clear I am still bullish precious metals on fundamentals and will use TA to monitor the road to higher prices......

if 1526.80 was actually the bottom and this downtrend is ready to turn back up, then here are my projections. A close below 1527 will invalidate these #'s.

1527 ==> 1598 - done
1598 ==> 1553 - ongoing
1553 ==> 1670
1670 ==> 1625
1625 ==> 1726
1726 ==> 1678
1678 ==> 1791 - 1856

I am expecting a drop right now to around 1560, a short rebound to show that the uptrend will resume and then down to 1553 to take out all of the early entries. If this happens, I will be long here and hopefully have enough patience to ride it up to 1800.

My projections have been right before and also wrong before so take em or leave em.

cheers !

I was expecting correction to go into the 1610-1620 range. Since it didn't I expect downtrend resuming with a vengence.

Might be wrong as well.

For those wishing to buy and hold XAU, I'd suggest you wait until price reverts back to at least last week's low (1527).

Now we are talking.

By the way, I'm expecting 1500-1510.

Have you noticed this?

Last time MVA or SMA(200) in daily was facing south was 3 years ago.

Just a curiosity.

looking at the 5 min. bounce @1557 and 27.74 lets see if she holds and gets on the otherside of 1664 and 27.93.

I see no trends more like fear driven buys and sells. Greeks are playing with nerves every day and every hour. For example yesterday they said (former PM) they are exiting EURO, this morning the leader of Leftist Party (which probably wins next elections) says it is not a possibility and they will do whatewer it takes to stay.

???

The best would if they shut up once and for all!

Well, let me see, your chart looks like a pine forest. I'd say: Use some other colors.

Just kidding.

If you are asking for reasons behind our calls, mine is posted some pages ago.

I think gold can make a weekly and maybe a monthly close below 1522, perhaps near 1455-1475.

That's just me. I think the bearish engulfing in monthly is still in charge of gold, so I'm expecting new lows.

I can be wrong, but as I use stop loss I don't care that much if price goes the other way, I follow the flow.

Same thinking, and when the USD rise, XAU monthly close below 1475 it is possible.
BTW I think my colour are good.
