Silver Futures

Silver futures in the September contract finished the week down about $.30 to close this Friday at 20.60 ending on a positive note up about $.18 closing right near session highs as the trend is now lower hitting a 4 week low so I’m neutral this market sitting on the sidelines waiting for another trend to develop, however if you are bearish I would sell at today’s price of 20.60 while placing my stop loss above the 10 day high which was on Monday’s trade at 21.32 risking around $.70 for $3,500 per contract as the chart structure currently is very solid. I’ve was recommending a long silver futures position when prices broke above 20.02 in late June while getting stopped out last week at the 10 day low as prices have broken down as the Malaysian airliner crisis has settled down as deflation currently is in the air not inflation as the U.S dollar continues to rally against the Euro currency as many of the commodity markets have been heading lower. Silver futures are trading below their 20 but still above their 100 day moving average telling you that trend currently is mixed and if you’re not looking to sell at today’s price level I would sit on the sidelines and trade another market that has a stronger trend.
TREND: MIXED
CHART STRUCTURE: SOLID

A Basic Guide to Understanding Reversals and Breakouts

Traders who study their time frame charts religiously will learn how to pick out certain indicators that can help to forecast a trend. Identifying these indicators early will help you to get a jump start on entering and exiting a trade at just the right moment to maximize your profit.

Time Frames


A time frame chart is a simple method used by traders to get a clearer picture of the direction pairs are heading. You choose the length of time you want to study, say 2-hour increments for short term goals or 8-hour increments to study the long term trending of a pair. The chart will show you the averages during that time, smoothing out the variations to make it easier to see the important details you need to know.

Two of the tools that your moving averages will help you base trades off of are reversals and breakouts.

Spotting a Reversal

A reversal trade is knowing when a currency is going to make a sudden move in the opposite direction. Continue reading "A Basic Guide to Understanding Reversals and Breakouts"

Three Reasons Why Gold and Gold Stocks Will Rise

The Gold Report: Over two days, July 14 and 15, the price of gold fell over $40 per ounce ($40/oz), more than 3% of its value. To what do you attribute this drop?

Jeffrey Mosseri: I don't think it was a very extraordinary event. Gold has been trading around $1,300/oz. We see sharp upward and downward movements triggered by, for instance, something Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen said or a negative report by Goldman Sachs. It looks as if gold will stay in the $1,300/oz range for a little while. We'll see which way it breaks out. We believe it's going to break out on the upside.

Douglass Loud: Gold had been running up for a while, and every so often investors want to take some money off the table.

TGR: How high do you believe gold will go?

"We like North American Nickel Inc.'s Maniitsoq nickel sulfide project in Greenland."

JM: The average sustaining cost of production for gold is about $1,500/oz. If gold continues to trade below that level, at some point no new mines will be brought on. Supply and demand indicates higher prices for gold. At the same time, we're dealing with a seasonal trading pattern. Usually the position for those commodities tightens up around September/October. We think this will happen again this year. Higher prices? Yes. How much higher? We don't know.

TGR: Given that the financing for junior gold companies collapsed years ago, shouldn't the concomitant shortage of new supply have led already to higher prices? Continue reading "Three Reasons Why Gold and Gold Stocks Will Rise"

Have Natural Gas Prices Hit Bottom?

It's been a summer of open windows and dormant air conditioners in the Eastern U.S. as the mercury has failed to break 85 degrees on most days and night-time lows fall down to the mid-50s in much of New England.

And that partially explains why natural gas prices are plunging to seven-month lows. Gas-fueled power plants are operating at a low hum as electricity demand has been unusually tepid. When you consider that late July typically represents a turning point for summer temperatures, this may turn out to be a year without any major heat waves. Good news indeed for residents in the Eastern U.S. after enduring an unusually dispiriting frigid winter.

As demand for gas remains subpar, gas storage facilities are re-filling at a rapid rate, turning gas back into a buyer's market. That's a quick change from six months ago when gas was being consumed at a faster-than-normal rate. And the resulting price collapse has left many to wonder: Will gas prices keep plunging, or have they hit bottom?

The answer to that question: Gas prices are likely to keep falling. Continue reading "Have Natural Gas Prices Hit Bottom?"
