GOLD - WHAT IS THE DEAL WITH NOVEMBER?Gold has entered the pivot zone. The hard metal is always a hold to me personally, but it helps to study the charts to get an idea of the algorithmic driving forces and other oddities. In this case, I couldn't help but see this Nov Nov Nov trend and the math behind the madness. The pattern suggests it'll be supportive. Watch it closely the next few weeks. We need to see strength come in to confirm support and upward continuation. Do not dismiss the possibility of a deeper correction.. There's no such thing as "impossible" when in comes to financial assets.. especially in 2020-after all, we did see oil trade MINUS $37 this year. Keep an open mind while in wonderland.
Weekly Gold chart shows weak technicalsLast weekend was warned of an imminent drop in Gold, which happened just on Black Friday.
The weekly gold chart suggests that price is lagging its indicators as
MACD is cutting down into bearish territory fast
Price Strength is similarly pushing down with momentum
Some net buying from Non-Commercials (orange line)
More net selling from the Top8 traders
Having broke down two supports, the next is on the 55EMA, about 1760.
And downside target is 1640 towards the end of 2020.
Gold just broke down again! Yesterday was Black Friday, and gold turned down a little more significantly, dropping from 1810 to 1775 within 15 mins. This break down was previously anticipated, following a short consolidation just after a significant move to 1800.
Technicals support further breakdown, with MACD and Relative Price Strength accelerating. Projections put Gold at 1750 early a December.
This downdraft was not concomitant with a rise in the USD, which currently does not look likely yet. So noting this, if there is a sudden USD rally, there could be enough fuel to propel gold prices to 1640.
Do recall that 1600-1640 was much earlier targeted as the bottom of the handle in the long term multi year Cup&Handle formation. So we may just get there regardless...
Gold broke down... hello 1800And we may see 1600 for Gold (GC1!) if 1800 does not hold.
Gold had been stalling and consolidating, wondering what to do over the past three weeks.
Had projected earlier that it is on the way down to 1800, and then as far down as 1600.
Even earlier, mid-August was the targeted date for a Gold top and that was done... so now, with technicals supporting the downdraft, and Gold futures breaking down, it is even more likely 1800 would be reached very soon.
Overall, Gold is in a secular long term robust bullish trend and I would be wary to short it; just that the volatility is high, so the range is way broader.
Gold is tilting to fall over...Given my previous analyses, Gold kept to the mid-August high, attempted a breakout of the triangle and fell back in... which is bearish by nature telling of an exit point at the other (down) side. Since the media called the results of the US elections, the USD had been in a volatile flux, and so is Gold, albeit consolidating in a range nonetheless.
A close below 1860 will mean it’s going down quickly to 1750 to meet the 55EMA.
MACD is downtrending and suggests this scenario.
However, a drop to 1600 was projected previously, but the Relative Price Strength suggests that might be a bit further, if at all.
Many moving parts to this outlook...
1. Gold looks weak as technical breakout failed and expecting a fall out on the other end of the wedge.
2.MACD indicates, with Price RS weakening, and Net Non-Commercial Interest (orange line, lower panel) continue to wane while Top 8 traders start to go more net short (yellow line, lower panel).
3. Dependence on the USD strength only for downside risk. The recent USD weakness did nothing to Gold’s rally (for the first 2.5 weeks of November. However, the USD rebounding strength is likely to enhance Gold’s weakness to the downside.
4. Noted a surge in BTCUSD (Bitcoin) and some other selected Cryptocurrency. This looks like a leak in the money flow system where and “alternative gold” is favored due to the lack of Risk-On.
Watch out for Gold in the near term downside risk.
It will come back but needs a good pullback, as it usually does.
Everything Update 11.20.20Taking a look at the weekly progress of multiple correlated markets and updated price targets: Bitcoin, Gold, Silver, USD, S&P500
Bitcoin
Excluding the March mayhem deviation in price, weeks ago there were hints of a parabolic trend starting to develop.
The breakout of a macro downtrend and weekly candle close above it was the buy signal.
Using macro fibonacci extensions I'm still anticipating a relentless squeeze with occasional dips to the longer term target of about $33,700, and will be watching for volume to start trending up.
US Dollar
Weeks ago it appeared a consolidation pattern was forming and momentum was to the downside.
I am still projecting one more leg down followed by a swift rebound up to the 200 week E M A. Eventually rolling back over to the longer term target below.
Gold
Not much changed with gold this week. Looks like a base is still building at the previous all time high levels.
Using macro fibonacci extensions, the intermediate term target is still $2300ish.
Next buy signal for Gold is a break out of the downtrend with the daily MACD above zero.
Silver
Weeks ago a consolidation pattern was forming.
Now that pattern has been validated and a breakout is imminent. Target $35ish.
Using the macro fibonacci extensions the longer term target looks to be around $58 or even $86.
SandP 500
Lots of speculation of a crash here. My thoughts are that reality lies somewhere in the middle and money will flow into the SandP stocks that have not fully recovered yet. I'm looking to buy short term dips, especially near the grey bars where heavy volume came in previously. If the dollar continues it's descent into the abyss then the SandP, along with all the aforementioned markets, will surely go up, up, and away.
Trading is risky. Don't do it and don't listen to me.

Bitcoin is going to the high... then what? Look at Gold!It is readily apparent by now that BITFINEX:BTCUSD is on a run for the last ATH. When the price of something is this close to such an obvious level with momentum it is a very high probability bet it is going to reach it and even break it. But what then? You have to BE SMART. A lot of people that don't watch this video are going to FOMO and I pity them but hopefully it comes with a lesson. That lesson they will learn one can already learn by just looking at the chart of AMEX:GLD this year.
Gold just setting up a nice top...Technically, Gold is setting up a series of lower highs and should be testing the recent lows soon. The breach below to close below the red support line of 1848 in the next two weeks should see Gold finally retracing decently.
MACD should break down into the bearish territory, and the Relative price strength also turn negative.
This premise appears supported with the non-commercial net positions (orange line, lower panel) getting less net long and about to break down the trendline support; as are the Top 8 traders net positions being more net short (yellow line, lowest pane) having already broken th dip trend support line.
Price target expected of about 1600 in December 2020.
Gold and the next leg upGold looks like it's about to make a new leg higher but will it also drop 5-7% first? The dollar and gold tend to create very distinctive price cycles if you know how to look for them. Renko helps to see these price cycles and time seems irrelevant to them. I am seeing a cycle low in the works now but I'm not sure if it's complete yet. I will venture to say it's going to drop down into the 1700's before the next leg up but I'm not sure if we'll get that lucky. See my forecast on GDX (gold miners) and how this analysis could agree with that one. Smart money likes to flush the boys out so I am just expecting a wild ride here soon.
Goldaholics AnonymousGold is zooming.
Why?
The DXY.
As we can see on the monthly DXY chart, the developing pattern parallels history.
1. It bounced off the 200 EMA
2. It broke trend, retested, and failed
3. It collapsed
The RSI and MACD are weak
What happened to Gold last time DXY collapsed?
