Precious Metals Commentary

February gold closed sharply lower on Tuesday and below November's low crossing at 1674.70 thereby renewing the decline off October's high. The low-range close sets the stage for a steady to lower opening when Wednesday's night session begins trading. Stochastics and the RSI are diverging but are bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near-term. If February extends the decline off November's high, the 62% retracement level of the May-October rally crossing at 1638.00 is the next downside target. Closes above the 20-day moving average crossing at 1714.50 would confirm that a short-term low has been posted. First resistance is the 20-day moving average crossing at 1714.50. Second resistance is November's high crossing at 1757.10. First support is today's low crossing at 1662.00. Second support is the 62% retracement level of the May-October rally crossing at 1638.00.

  1. Why is the price of gold and silver are going down while the dollar is falling and the fed is printing an additional trillion next year? It must be the crooks at JP Morgan with their 200 million oz short position which is moving prices .. is that called manipulation .. where are the regulations CME .. they are in on the scam as JPMorgan pays them a lot of money to continue to look the other way ... who"s left to regulate the CFTC which has been watching this criminal activity for the past 4 years .... FAIR & HONEST MARKETS ARE NOT FOUND HERE!!!!
