If taper talk becomes reallity gold will be down big time. I am going against the trend and shorting gold my sl is 1380
I tend to agree, though I think we could see plenty of volatility as result of increased liquidity, and stops above 1,400 might get taken out before the plunge.

There is lot more in play than taper talk right now. This week's inflation and employment data pretty much confirmed taper but look what happened to the USD. It got sold off for no apparent reason. Like anton said, it is going to be volatile.

lets not forget new coming china stimulus. do you think US can afford not to print and let usd be superstrong. I do not think so.

also there is bunch of buyers waiting in 900 to 1100 area. Let them enjoy view of the sky They will jump in once they realise prices actually moving higher without them and they will see 10,000 number in their dreams.

That's 40 billions + the trade surpluses that they are not putting into the treasuries. You only need a billion here and there to pump up prices. Gold market is not that big.

Gold price already broken out of the kumo cloud so it is going to be uptrend from here for awhile. There will be a pullback next week though... atless base on RSI and stochastic readings.

The bullish break of the clouds from the lagging line is still missing...at the moment it's only a correction.

Short Squeeze on Gold?

http://www.businessinsider.com/gold-...squeeze-2013-8


Upcoming week should be volatile with FOMC minutes on Wednesday, plus China, EU, and other U.S. news.

{quote} (if this closes above 1340) your line will be broken, than bullish trend continues (my view: until 1480, than 1600) I expect a big big daily candle in the coming days: I would only trade here with a high-leverage, seperate account with limited money (risk) Real account killer, take care with your trades. Always use stop-loss in your trades especially in XAG and XAU. And if you don't you will learn to do it the hard way... {image}

Im short after that top out on the 4HR.

Overall longer term trend is bullish but looking for a retrace here to at least the last support zone 1339-1346.

SL is below 1390 - if we were to break through that then I would see 1420 very shortly afterwards IMO.

I tend to agree with this analysis. I closed my short earlier for a small profit, and on the sidelines until Wednesday. If U.S. news is poor or even mixed, gold could make it up to the 1,420 area. The longer term trend will probably not come into view until after September U.S. Fed meeting.

duno. but what I know that there is too many shorts and would be longs waiting around 1000 area.

Sharp move up will kill couple of birds :

1. force shorts to cover
2. force ones that wait at 1000 to buy at much higher prices as they will get afraid that they will miss move to 10k.
3 force gold bugs that gave up and sold in disgust to jump on the wagon again.

mumbling about china stimulus centred in west china is getting louder so here is your fundamental reason.

1,375 has been a tough one to pass. I would think a move higher would be capped at 1,425. With emerging markets tanking, I wonder how that will effect gold since a large portion of physical demand is in Asia. I would think shorts would be near 1380-1400

I would say PEAK OUT this week, thereafter, a free fall like that Red Apple, no new low. I've been stating about this period for over 4 - 6 weeks now.

I'd give it to 1425, but nobody is interested in it anymore.

I fired a couple of shorts yesterday with SL @ 1415, apparently 1425 would be safer. I would add more this week.

PS: Locked tens of thousands of pips too (2 sets of Long Roots)
