When in doubt stay out!

Quoting six gun
closed my long in gold at 1504.5 - it had been running up a trendline but then walked out. At the moment it could go either way for me and so better out.

Yes - In one and out of another.

It is refreshing to look at a naked gold chart, then plot simple, major support and resistance and a few TLs and MAs after.

Gold has a tendency to move sideways a lot right through Trendlines, forks, channels and what have you.

I find the most impact when we have converging horizontal major support with
converging MA's and a major Trend line.

Weekly channel still intact. Certain bearish activity today. Price seems subject to possible further downside, yet, the bottom line is we are again above the 1500 USD mark.

In the event of further correction I will be placing close attention to the 1420 appx area noted in yellow in the chart below.

Here's are two charts of gold. The first one I have been watching. Just added the red fork on the second to bring things a little more current.

move for week is coming out of 1509 and right now were trading on the south side of that @ 1505 area, however we will see what 1485-87 area says about that. We heard what was said yesterday. silver hit its weekly trend guide 39.37 and gold hit last weeks trend guide 1525 and both moved down.
today both hit daily guide one bounced down and the other up. eyes open.
maybe calm before the move.

Just bouncing ina 3/4 USD range. Not sure why you are looking at a 5 Second chart!

It will break at some point. Looking up with potential bounce down first... = be careful of london headfakes..

I've been lurking this thread and trading gold silver for a while. Wanted to thank everyone for some really good insight and charts.

Love the silver action off the 38.2 last night, would like to get long around the flash lows last week towards the bottom of 33.

Gold, above 1472ish range or w/e looks good as well for longs.


Lilpips, i like ur insight on what she is doing. Would love to hear your detailed play call if we get there in the next few hours...

I found a fork I had drawn on the daily. Lower parallel would line up around 1475 if price got down to it. Seems likely although 1490 has rejected price twice on the 1H chart right now.

That BEOB worked, it cracked 1500 and the lower end of the bar and down.
looking to the left 1475 looks the support level - I find it hard to believe now it is going down we are done with it.
I am out so relaxed about it.

Yeah, I like 33.2 alot too. Sorta unsure about where to put my stops. If we break too far below 33 we run to 30, but was thinking low 32.xx.

Gold had lots of resistance areas to sell off from 1522. 1520 1500 1492 even a 1507 or w/e in there too would of been decent stops.

Should not work before a strong down to start & continue can expect a limited retracement , may not even pullback as usual .

anything can happen, again but be carefull .

That said, I'm looking for some recommendations on a TA book... I don't think I need something as dumbed down as a 'for dummies' publication, but I do need something that contains layman explanations for many of the concepts covered.. (i.e. not overly technical) Something that starts at square one and builds up.
Do you know www.babypips.com ? That would be a good starting point for you. And it's for free.
