Gold
-
Gold longs at support at 2450/45 were stopped below 2440. This is a counter trend move (the longer term trend is obviously bullish). However I am taking the break below 2440 as a sell signal as stated yesterday.
-
If you have entered a short, our targets are 2436/31 & probably 2415. We could even reach a buying opportunity at 2410/05 & longs need stops below 2399.
-
Try shorts at 2440/45 with stop above 2450.
Silver
Silver we wrote: As long as silver holds below resistance at 3050/60 the outlook shifts to negative, targeting 2980 & 2930/20. A break below 3000 should obviously trigger further losses today.
-
Silver made a high for the day at 3061. If you entered a short it worked perfectly as silver immediately collapsed to 2972.
-
On the bounce, silver reversed from 3007, so the sell signal on the break below 3000 also worked perfectly.
-
Silver is on the way to my target of 2930/20 & could even reach 2900.2890 today for profit taking on any remaining shorts before the weekend.
-
A sell opportunity at 3000/3020 with stop above 3040.
