Only Gold!

Russia and Ukraine are important suppliers of energy and other commodities such as palladium, nickel, titanium and grain.

wow, you went there... cannot believe you went there... as in your discussion. Very dangerous ground.

1. No evidence Russian troops were in the country to force the referendum
2. A US Naval ship was docked of Crimea during the time of the referendum so if any pressure was applied it was from the US and not Russia
3. If the US had of jumped in they would have been heroes for saving the local people from an uprising, but if Russia jumped in it would have been an act of war.

I am not wedded to either country (US or Russia), but you have to see things from both perspectives and not simply listen to the crap from CNN and Bloomy as they are the FEDs puppets and are towing the line. If Russia was so bad why would Donetsk and other states be asking for the same result as Crimea?

The US forced everybody to give up nuclear power, Australia was going to put a nuclear power plant near Adelaide and then US warned us against it saying it was a very dangerous energy source, since then the US have put in multiple nuclear power plants..

That is all I am going to say on it, as it has a potential to get in the way of what we are really here for, to trade and make money.

So silver is dropping nicely but gold is being propped up, my charts are telling me gold should be lower around the 1292 mark based on the H1.

I know it is small but how much is the Aussie Budget going to affect things?
US news release later today?
Will it send people holding AUD longs running for a safe haven until the dust settles?

I have 1 x short and 1 x long in play on gold
1 x short on silver.

a your tube URL should insert the YT vid

your tube = youtube

heck this is not working, am I doing anything wrong?

more short 12945 added post chart later 1268.4 add more short order in case of free fall triage pattern on the day chart price being squeezed the tecs suggest break out short,, but only follow if it is your own trade

Not working for me at the moment either.. oh well..

Closed short on silver for tidy profit. Will leave two gold entries until NY session to see where we are.
For the moment I am seeing a little bull run developing on the H1 that should take effect on the next 1hr candle.

Dear All,

Where is EatPips?

Bought gold 1291 with 1280 stop loss.

Nice one, same long @ 1291.88 TP 1293.29

Why you came out so early.

Thinking of selling for a target of 1286 at the close of this 1Hr candle. Whaddaya Say !!!

13:49 05/13Ukraine acting Defense Minister “undeclared war taking place in Donetsk”

I expect at least one of datas to come out worse, Traders look into worse not betters!
But thats just guesses!

Last H1 candle close was a possible fakey ! Init. ..

how do you figure out whether is fake or not?

Okay so those figures where a bit unexpected, however gold and silver did not actually take off like a rocket. Interesting...

Went where? I did not go anywhere...Neither am I siding with anyone here (US or Russia); except for the idea of sovereignity of nation states and how when a country voluntarily gives up their nuclear arms in should become imperative for the international community to come to their help; isn't that a UN mandate? Otherwise that doesn't send a good message to other nation states who have nuclear aspirations... How does it make you feel that U.S tells Australia not to have nuclear plants but has it themselves...? thats double standards right...? Now think nuclear weapons and nations in Russia's proximity...think Kazakistan, n.korea, Iran, Georgia etc... Do you not think they will feel threatened? Will they not want to pursue the path of building nuclear weapons...? Some of these countries have Russian nationals? what if they start rebelling too? Should Russia just walk in and take over? That was all I was saying... I wasn't siding with anyone except for the idea of sovereignity & multi-ethnic nationalism...

Politics is really hard to debate...as things go very deep and become complex. You are right about listening to Cnn and Bloomberg (they might be controlled and biased) but atleast one fact is clear...Ukraine is breaking down; it recently lost a state and now it might lose two more...It has no money to pay is "gas bill". I am not saying that Putin or Russia is invading anyone here; but if you are to take a neutral stance here you cannot deny that Russia isn't stepping back either... After all he did visit Crimea and so far he hasn't refused to take donetsk on board either... as for this question you raised: "If Russia was so bad why would Donetsk and other states be asking for the same result as Crimea?"; well the answer isn't simple and i never said Russia is bad? but there are many russian seperatists there who think that joining Russia would give them the economic incentives which Ukraine cannot offer... but does that give grounds for calling independence and annexing to Russia? All I am saying is; this seems to be happening to quickly and Russia isn't stepping back either...

You know we could go on and on about this... but this isn't the place? I just wanted to say that I don't side by U.S or Russia either... I was just speaking from Ukraine's perspective and their act of giving up nuclear arms that's all... & if the international community just turns their head on them; it would be detrimental.... Even if it was Sweden taking Crimea in place of Russia I would say the same...

Just a final note on cnn and bloomberg: its unfortunate that they can be biased...but as traders we have no choice but to rely on them because they have the power to move markets as opposed to "RT" etc? That unfortunately is the state of the world...

Anyway wish you happy trading... "we just got bad us numbers" Hopefully this should push prices up!
