23.6 fib retracement from $1460 low a few weeks ago to $1530 ish,
I got 8 units of gold and am currently a bit down but i'm happy with it
If you look at most of the charts here they are showing pretty reasonable uptrends at the moment on most timescales.....I accept that with OpEx and the London Bank Holiday on Monday there is a possibility of a raid and a spike down, but I would be very wary going short without stringent money management.....
I have no idea what 8 units of gold is (is it 8 x 100 ounces) or whether that is a large or small position for you....
I would wish you bonne chance, but that would hurt my positions

Thanks for that - I don't know your trading experience so forgive me if I'm "teaching you to suck eggs......"

No sweat over that beeb, the profit we make at least has to come from somewhere.
Thanks Jeremy, bonne chance indeed!

I don't usually post analysis in both furums simultaneously but...
***********************
Sorry but I'm only intererested in a couple these days. Gold being one of them.Not hard to say that I am a Gold Bull but like I try to teach...
Entries are Crucial.
I'm not, as yet, Long again but expect to be before the weekend.Hoping for another 5 Bar Bull Statement on the Daily.
My Indies(Although Still High) show Signs of a Turn North
Brake (& apparently held) The Bear Diag @ 1,515 or so.
Attacking recent swing high @ 1,.526.50
Not reallyu in love with the fact that it is not 'Brushing it aside' but I think the Bears know the consequence of losing a grip on this one.
IF the Bull Runs... I see 1,556 before it hesitates & takes a run at New Highs.
It's about Growth...

We are in a pretty good spot here.
Price is in small range above resistance line at 1524 area.
I wouldn't call it exactly violated yet,
YET, it is above it never the less and still in target of bullish flag completion.
Only appx $50 USD off the record.
(Oh, but I forgot we had a major "reversal"
)
Some idiots don't realize the difference between correction ie: Gold dropping 100 USD from a record high, or the AUD/USD for instance dropping 5 to 600 pips and REMAINING BULLISH.
Edit : Chart = HOUR 4 / 240 minute. Both entries long.

and its holding firm too pip, good work.
What you see her doing though, I gotta hit the hay before NY open
.
I added @36.75 and have add order @1529 (hope this is decent trading). Love the bullish tone in this thread, even as justified as it is. GL, take us strong thru NY.

May depend on Core durable goods / durable goods and crude inventories a bit.
Cable just boosted 100 pips with some poor data and one great no. sooooo....
I'd keep an eye on the majors and the overall risk seeking of the day. Hard to do whilst asleep, yet. With a Bullish break double confirmed with a bullish flag on the MAY symmetrical triangle silver should follow the leader.
