From October last year I have considered gold to be quite bearish. My outlook was limited to 20th Jan before the market was worth reconsidering. It is looking more and more bullish as time goes on so that means that globally the demand for more financial security is increasing= gold price rises. At the same time inflationary pressures are ensuring gold prices decrease = gold rangbound.

What do you all think?

Your comment has curious timing. I've spent the last 4 or 5 hours going over the 4H, 8H, Daily, Weekly and Monthly charts.

The 4H, 8H and Daily all show signs of going north. Even though (at first glance) the Weekly and Monthly have been bearish, I can't help thinking that they are also turning.

I placed a small long at 1241, and I have some other longs that have been running at a loss but are slowly turning green.

It's a volatile arena for me.

still holding shorts target 1195
Yes, I've just added to shorts at 1249. Resistance seems fairly strong, though I would welcome an extension higher so I can add more shorts. First target is 1188

IMO you missed the boat about 6 months ago.

Considering my longs are now $40 away from my entries, I think that is a bit personal and uninvited.

IMO, 1250 is still heavily defended by the bears. Just look at the numbers of rejection at that level.

PS: Not vested, staying out as I am unsure of the trend at the moment.
The true fact is market doesn't care, risk mgt is important.

Newbs are long today?

You mean proper traders who know their shit are long today, H4 bullish candles, rejecting upward trend line, double bottom and 1-2-3 reversal pattern, weekly bullish engulfing, looks like the monthly could close as a 2 bar reversal if the up move continues... newbs are entering short today you meant to say

I am right 80% of the time... and this time I am nearly sure I am right.

Short term trend is definitely up, its been up since the beginning of the year, a basic 5 wave sequence is clearly visible on the daily.

With severe weakness in the YEN aganst all crosses, it may be very bullish for gold. The only problem with that is that USD is simultaneously weak and therefore many investors are moving out of bonds into metals. I presume that may mean that gold will rise in value.
