Gold Price Exclusive Update

Our proprietary cycle indicator is down.

To public readers of our updates, our cycle indicator is one of the most effective timing tool for traders and investors. It is not perfect, because periodically the market can be more volatile and can result in short term whipsaws. But overall, the cycle indicator provides us with a clear direction how we should be speculating.

Investors

During a major buy signal, investors can accumulate positions by cost averaging at cycle bottoms, ideally when prices are at or near the daily 200ema.

During a major sell signal, investors should be hedged or in cash.

Traders

Simply cost average in at cycle bottoms when prices are at or near the daily 200ema; and cost average out at cycle tops when prices are above the daily 50ema.

Gold sector remains on long-term buy at the end of August.

GLD is on short-term sell signal.

GDX is on short-term sell signal.

XGD.to is on short-term sell signal.

GDXJ is on short-term sell signal.

Analysis

COT data supports lower gold prices overall.

COT data supports lower silver prices overall.

Our ratio is on buy signal.

GLD is now testing the breakout point.

The next major resistance is at 500 and support at 280.

USD continues to make lower lows, but gold fails to capitalize on that by making lower highs.

Objectively looking at gold prices: a range is now established between the recent high near 2100, and support at 1900.

The short term sharp swings inside this range can whipsaw most traders, therefore, it’s wise not to throw more capital into the sector until there is a clear direction for the intermediate time frame

Summary

Long-term – on major buy signal.

Short-term – on sell signals.

Gold sector cycle is down, a consolidation/correction is in progress.

*** We are hedged, locking in 130% profit on our core position, and 20% on our short-term positions.
