Gold Futures

Gold futures finished the week at 1,240 still continuing their choppy trade as investors sold off the precious metal later in the week despite the fact that the S&P 500 is having huge volatility which generally spooks investors into buying gold but the precious metal closed very poorly in my opinion. I have a hard time believing that gold is going to start to rally anytime soon as it might be stuck in the mud and could trade choppy for quite some time. The U.S dollar hit a 7 week high today which is bearish gold prices as the printing press here in the United States is starting to stop which is creating a higher U.S dollar versus the foreign currencies and that is bearish commodity prices in general.

My 10 Golden Rules of Trading

Even though 2014 has just begun, so far it has been difficult and frustrating for most investors and traders. One only has to look Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) recent performance as a prime example of how 2014 is going to be a very different year from 2013.

Today, I want to share with my "10 Golden Rules of Trading" that never go out of style. Why? These rules are the universal truths of the marketplace. To ignore them you could be condemning your portfolio to failure.

While I did not invent all of these rules myself, I did discover them the hard way. My discovery was painful, expensive, and brutal as I made practically every mistake in the book, before finding success in the markets.

Incorporating these "10 Golden Rules of Trading" into your own strategy can help you down the path to success in the markets.

1) Have a Game Plan - Figure out why you’re getting into the market and, more importantly, how to get out if you’re wrong. Continue reading "My 10 Golden Rules of Trading"

Gold Futures

Gold futures are trading above their 20 day but slightly below its 100 day moving average hitting a 2 month high as investors came back into the precious metal as the stock market suffered sharply lower losses in the last couple of days. The Dow Jones is down 250 points this Friday as investors are putting money back in the bond and gold markets in recent weeks. I’m recommending sitting on the sidelines in gold as I think the trend is higher but we will see some choppiness especially if the stock market starts to reverse and head back up which in my opinion it will do as the selloff is blamed on emerging market weakness spooking investors in the last couple of days.

Gold Futures

Gold futures rallied sharply off of a disappointing unemployment jobs number coming out this morning stating that we had added 75,000 jobs as we are expecting at around 200,000 sending gold up $16 closing right at session highs at 1,245 an ounce with a possible bottom at 1,180 being formed as traders rushed back into the precious metal thinking that the economy is doing much worse than expected. Gold is still in a mixed trend trading above its 20 day moving average but below the 100 day moving average settling last Friday at 1,239 going out up about $5 for the week and it will be very interesting to see what the next jobs report states if it’s another 75,000 you could be almost be assured that the Federal Reserve will continue its quantitative easing and might even add to it so if you’re bullish gold you’re hoping for another poor unemployment number next month.

Gold Futures

Gold futures are right near 3 year lows going out this Friday afternoon at 1,212 an ounce finishing higher by around $12 this week despite the fact that the money flow continues into the S&P 500 and out of the precious metals as investors see no reason to be long the gold market at this time. Gold futures have dropped $700 from their highs and I do think there’s still a possibility that we could drop another $100 dollars maybe another $150 but eventually this market will bottom out as well as world problems will come back into play, but right now the trend is your friend and in the trend buying S&P and selling gold and I think that’s going to continue for the rest of the year as the stock market is hitting all-time highs once again in the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average while gold futures finished up $8 today.
