Gold Bullish or Bearish

Recommended Posts

As PREDICTED BEFOREHAND ....PER CAPT BOB REQUEST- This is a followup to my post 1087. PLEASE NOTE IT WAS PROJECTED BEFOREHAND..Gold traded down to the first horizontal line (60% chance remember), penetrated it slightly making a low of 1374.20 (red circle). Then it reversed. It has since gone to 1407.60. Over 33 points. So, a trader who went long at the green horizontal line could take 1/2 off after 18 to 22 points profit (depending on ones exact exit on 1/2 of position) and let the remainder trade on up and get out now or just continue to le it run moving up stop loss. The point is if one manages their Stoploss correctly this trade cannot turn into a loser. It is already at least an 18 point winner (probally more, depending on what the trader does) regardless of what market does afterwards. And if one totally exits right now he has a around 30 to 33 point winner.

 

I like selling into strenght and buying into weakness..catching falling knifes...and other idiotic tactics....AS LONG as the PA to the left supports such tactics.

 

Gold remains bullish. Heads up for a possible ATM zone after rise tapers off. This was with oct contract..i stuck with that chart as it was the chart of post 1087 mentioned above. It is now not the contract with most vol so in future i will use either cash or front running contract with most vol. but for comparison purposes i stuck with oct.

 

Perhaps this prediction will advance me from the COMPLETE LEVEL TL RATING (which means complete idiot per zdo) to the master level?..:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

 

PS Warning never listen to Patuca and never do what Patuca does.. It is all for information only and to gloat a little as trading can boring.......i need to find another fishing spot....getting tired of trading.

 

Chart is barchart ....Idiotic markings are patucas

Took me awhile to come up with something appropriate - this will have to do:

 

Will that horse be able to run up my gold channel on my post or will he stumble..falter...and fall completely out of my channel?

LOL....Trading and fishing work good together except when you hook a big fish and at the same exact moment a BIG trade takes off. Do you throw down the rod and attend to trading (as you can always buy another) OR do you attend to the fishing and neglect the trading? What is most important fish or $$$$$?

 

Please advise...

LONG at 1401 from yesterday

Stop now at 1410

Target 1420

 

Gold is BELOW the 45 degree Gann angle....thats bearesh

The numbers to watch

.... break below 1410 goes to 1395

.....and then to 1370 SUPPORT The price bounced off 1372 yesterday. Lots of demand at this level .So thats the BIG number for a home run.

.....break above 1421 goes to 1434 RESISTANCE

.....break above 1434 is a home run (and SunTrader is dead)

 

regards

the statement above looks a bit intriguing for me.........how do you where to start from with the angle?.....a different candle and the angle is changed.....

 

Hi TW

If the chart is UP , draw a 45 degree angle from the bottom left hand corner

If the chart is DOWN, draw a 45 degree angle from the top left hand corner

BUT you can start with any candle, just in the right corner.

Yesterday was an UP day, but it still made a lower low than the day before.

There is another RULE to Gann trading.... lower lows mean the short term trend is DOWN, until a higher low is made.Thats the simplest way of trading,but you lose every time this happens.. Close of day prices apply

I dont think I have explained this very well:doh:

Heres some useless info for budding astronomers and S & P traders.

Our solar system is situated in one of the lesser spirals (arms ) of the Milky Way)

It revolves around the Centre at a speed of 830 000 km per hour

It takes 250 million years to complete a circuit.Thats how big the Milky Way is.

Now every 65 million years it passes through a big spiral (arm),and the proverbial hit the fan

Last time this happened all the dinosaurs died.

Well next Monday is the end of another cycle.So index trader be careful :(:(

I am going to take the day off :haha:

why? Why? Why? Did you do that capt bob? Why long? I said in in my very recent post # 1096 "heads up" for ATM zone. Nothing to do but sell the top and buy the bottom until we get another breakout either up or down. We should get at least 2-3 sideways bars now 70% chance(). If a trader buy tops in ATM zone and sell bottoms he will get stopped out 70% to 80% of the time. Please meditate deeply about the matter..A trader should deeply consider selling strenght and buying weakness..

 

Ps Gold s bullish.

    • Date: 3rd April 2025.   Gold Prices Pull Back After Record High as Traders Eye Trump’s Tariffs.   Key Takeaways:   Gold prices retreated after hitting a record high of $3,167.57 per ounce due to profit-taking. President Trump announced a 10% baseline tariff on all US imports, escalating trade tensions. Gold remains exempt from reciprocal tariffs, reinforcing its safe-haven appeal. Investors await US non-farm payroll data for further market direction. Fed rate cut bets and weaker US Treasury yields underpin gold’s bullish outlook. Gold Prices Retreat from Record Highs Amid Profit-Taking Gold prices saw a pullback on Thursday as traders opted to take profits following a historic surge. Spot gold declined 0.4% to $3,122.10 per ounce as of 0710 GMT, retreating from its fresh all-time high of $3,167.57. Meanwhile, US gold futures slipped 0.7% to $3,145.00 per ounce, reflecting broader market uncertainty over economic and geopolitical developments.   The recent rally was largely fueled by concerns over escalating trade tensions after President Donald Trump unveiled sweeping new import tariffs. The 10% baseline tariff on all goods entering the US further deepened the global trade conflict, intensifying investor demand for safe-haven assets like gold. However, as traders locked in gains from the surge, prices saw a modest retracement.   Trump’s Tariffs and Their Market Implications On Wednesday, Trump introduced a sweeping tariff policy imposing a 10% baseline duty on all imports, with significantly higher tariffs on select nations. While this move was aimed at bolstering domestic manufacturing, it sent shockwaves across global markets, fueling inflation concerns and heightening trade war fears.   Gold’s Role Amid Trade War Escalations Despite the widespread tariff measures, the White House clarified that reciprocal tariffs do not apply to gold, energy, and ‘certain minerals that are not available in the US’. This exemption suggests that central banks and institutional investors may continue favouring gold as a hedge against economic instability. One of the key factors supporting gold is the slowdown that these tariffs could cause in the US economy, which raises the likelihood of future Federal Reserve rate cuts. Gold is currently in a pure momentum trade. Market participants are on the sidelines and until we see a significant shakeout, this momentum could persist.   Impact on the US Dollar and Bond Yields Gold prices typically move inversely to the US dollar, and the latest developments have pushed the dollar to its weakest level since October 2024. Market participants are increasingly pricing in the possibility of a Fed rate cut, as the tariffs could weigh on economic growth.   Additionally, US Treasury yields have plummeted, reflecting growing recession fears. Lower bond yields reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like gold, making it a more attractive investment.         Technical Analysis: Key Levels to Watch Gold’s recent rally has pushed it into overbought territory, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) above 70. This indicates a potential short-term pullback before the uptrend resumes. The immediate support level lies at $3,115, aligning with the Asian session low. A further decline could bring gold towards the $3,100 psychological level, which has previously acted as a strong support zone. Below this, the $3,076–$3,057 region represents a critical weekly support range where buyers may re-enter the market. In the event of a more significant correction, $3,000 stands as a major psychological floor.   On the upside, gold faces immediate resistance at $3,149. A break above this level could signal renewed bullish momentum, potentially leading to a retest of the record high at $3,167. If bullish momentum persists, the next target is the $3,200 psychological barrier, which could pave the way for further gains. Despite the recent pullback, the broader trend remains bullish, with dips likely to be viewed as buying opportunities.   Looking Ahead: Non-Farm Payrolls and Fed Policy Traders are closely monitoring Friday’s US non-farm payrolls (NFP) report, which could provide critical insights into the Federal Reserve’s next policy moves. A weaker-than-expected jobs report may strengthen expectations for an interest rate cut, further boosting gold prices.   Other key economic data releases, such as jobless claims and the ISM Services PMI, may also impact market sentiment in the short term. However, with rising geopolitical uncertainties, trade tensions, and a weakening US dollar, gold’s safe-haven appeal remains strong.   Conclusion: While short-term profit-taking may trigger minor corrections, gold’s long-term outlook remains bullish. As global trade tensions mount and the Federal Reserve leans toward a more accommodative stance, gold could see further gains in the months ahead.   Always trade with strict risk management.
