Gold Futures

Gold futures in the December contract settled in New York last Friday at 1,183 an ounce while currently trading at 1,161 down over $20 for the trading week despite the fact that China cut their interest rates by 25% and the ECB announced yesterday to add more stimulus in silver which is generally bullish gold prices are just the opposite is happening is the U.S dollar is up 200 points in the last two trading days putting pressure on many commodities. Gold prices are still trading above their 20 and 100 day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is to the upside, however all of the interest is back in the S&P 500 which is up over 60 points in the last two trading days as the technology sector has caught fire once again with Amazon, Google, and Microsoft all up sharply today as money flows are going back into the equities.

Gold Futures

Gold futures in the December contract settled last Friday in New York at 1,156 an ounce while currently trading at 1,178 up over $20 for the trading week continuing its bullish momentum hitting a 3 ½ month high as I’ve been sitting on the sidelines as the 10 day low stands at 1,130 which is too far away with too much risk at the current time as I will wait for a better chart structure to occur. Gold prices are trading above their 20 and 100 day moving average for the first time in months telling you that this rally could be for real but wait for a better chart structure to tighten up therefore lowering monetary risk which could take another 5 days as a weak U.S dollar has spurred prices to the upside in recent weeks.

Gold Futures

Gold futures in the December contract settled last Friday in New York at 1,136 an ounce while currently trading at 1,154 trading above its 20 and 100 day moving average for the 1st time in many months as the trend has now turned to the upside, however the chart structure is very poor at the current time as the 10 day low is to for away so I’m sitting on the sidelines waiting for a tighter stop to develop. Many of the commodity markets have rallied in the last week including the energy sector & precious metals as the next major level of resistance is around 1,170 as a short-term bottom certainly looks like it’s developed, but be patient and wait for better chart structure which could take a couple more weeks as the U.S dollar continues its short-term bearish trend helping support the commodity and gold market. Gold prices have remained very choppy over the last six weeks with high volatility so if you want to trade this market place the proper amount of contracts risking 2% of your account balance on any given trade, but in my opinion this market remains choppy and is very difficult to trade successfully.

Gold Futures

Gold futures in the December contract settled last Friday in New York at 1,145 an ounce while currently trading at 1,131 down about $14 this week but reacting sharply higher today on a poor monthly unemployment number but continuing its long term down trend while trading below its 20 and 100 day moving average retesting major support at 1,100 near an eight week low as I’m currently sitting on the sidelines as this market remains choppy with poor chart structure. I still see no reason to own gold currently as the risk/reward is not your favor so look at other markets that are starting to trend. Gold prices had a significant rally in the month of August bottoming out around 1,080 then rallying to 1,170 which was impressive in my opinion due to short covering and a flight to quality as the stock market has experienced volatility in recent weeks sending money out of stocks and into gold as a safe haven, but things have settled down putting short-term pressure on gold.

Gold Futures

Gold futures in the December contract are sharply higher this Friday in New York trading up $20 at 1,137 an ounce after settling last Friday at 1,103 reacting to the Federal Reserve yesterday not raising interest rates sending gold sharply higher with high volatility. Gold is trading above its 20 day but still below its 100 day moving average telling you that the trend is mixed as I’ve been sitting on the sidelines for quite some time as this trend is extremely choppy as I’m advising investors to avoid this market at the current time and wait for better chart structure before entering. I was recommending a silver trade getting stopped out a couple of days back as the precious metals as a whole have rallied as it looks like the Federal Reserve is very hesitant to raise interest rates which is bullish commodity markets at least here in the short-term, but the true breakout in gold is above 1,170 but look at other markets that are beginning to trend with less risk.
