Dubai debt crisis

This week until now I was very busy with my SMS project and had no chance to look deep into Dubai debt crisis.

From jsmineset.com:
The debt crisis in Dubai is just the first of many that will occur in the Middle East and Eastern Europe in the coming years. It was a wake up call, but not particularly serious by itself. Many Eastern European countries, the Baltic nations...

Gold 4h


The chart is from yesterday. The decline to lower boundary has begun.

EUR daily


on EUR/USD daily chart we can clearly see the rising channel.
However there is a resistance at 1.51 level.

2009-12-02

Gold in retrospection and 4h chart

Gold 1day

Gold is at the verge of $1,200 level, even today for a while it was traded @ $1,200.
Here is retrospection from last 4-5 mo.
With blue is shown what I call massive triangle, and at point (1) the triangle was broken.
With brown, is shown the parallel rising channel, which at some point in the early November was broken on the upside.
With pink is shown current short term rising channel. Note the spike down at point (2). We may view at it as testing of the "brown" channel.

Gold 4h

Currently gold rising inside a channel shown in blue. The current objective is $1,220.
There are one more possible channel - the brown one. In its case, the target is $1,210 or so.
If the gold fall without hit $1,210, it may form double top. This will be short term and objective will be around $1,100.

Disclosure:
Sold speculative the possition in $1,180-1,190 area, looking to buy @ 1,180 and lower...

2009-11-26

Gold charts

1h chart

Price rice inside a channel. Not long ago price hits the "middle" of the channel. Now it must rice.
4h chart

Price rice inside a different channel. Price "hovers" at the top of the channel, we can see drop to the bottom of the channel, but we may very well see the price to test the top too - $1,203.00

2009-11-23

Gold 4h


Top is probably in ~ 1,172.- , now a correction is due. Possible target is 1,140.-, but better to place order couple of bucks higher 1,142-1,145.

Disclosure - sold the speculative possition at ~ 1,158-1,166 area

2009-11-16

Gold 4h


The gold rices to the upper boundary line (upper blue line). Note this is back inside the wedge (not shown).
Now a decline is due, at least bach to bottom blue line, or may be to brown line.

Disclosure: Sold rest of my speculative possition @ 1,032.- Looking to buy back at not specified level.

Touradji Buys Barrick Gold Shares, Sells Gold ETF

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601103&sid=aydy.U01wYx8

2009-11-12

Gold 1d and 4h

Gold 1h

Parallel channel in blue, small bearish wedge in brown. Price is @ the top of the channel and must decline to the bottom.
Gold 4h

Same channel as on 1hour chart in blue. We can see how the bottom boundary acted as resistance for a while before price rise.

Big bearish wedge - top blue, bottom - brows is formed. Price objective of the wedge is $1,000.

Short term targets - $1,110 and $1,102+.

Best development will be price to fell to 1,103 area and then to rise to upper blue line. This will invalide the wedge.

Disclosure: looking to buy at $1,108, then at $1,103.

Recent gold development...

Misc:
Looks like IMF gold sale did not affected the market as most people thought :) . Nor the buyer was China...
My calculations shows that gold was sold @ ~ 1070 USD area. This was over the market price ~ 1055 at that moment. Gold immediately rised, but currently is 1085.

Gold 4h:

here we had the triangle, there is no doubt that the triangle is broken now. Parallel blue lines act as support / resistance, and upper blue line indeed stopped rise, at least for a while.

Gold 1h:

here on 1h chart we can see the rising channel (blue). It was a bearish wedge for a moment, but it was broken from the "wrong" site. Deja vu :-) . It once again act as resistance.
I am expecting that gold will correct a little bit, at least to 1066 before future rise.

Disclosure:
Sold my speculative possition @ 1073

IMF / India Gold Sales calculations

b = 6.7
M = 6,700,000
B = 6,700,000,000

ton = 200 kg = 200,000 gr = 200,000,000 oz = 6,250,000

$ 1,072.00 / oz

Notes: Calculation is done with 1 oz = 32 g.

IMF sells India 200 tonnes of Gold for $6,7bn

The International Monetary Fund has sold 200 tonnes of gold to the Reserve Bank of India for $6,7 billion, quietly executing half of a long-planned bullion sale that has threatened to slow gold’s ascent.

the gold price fell to the blue support line, but also to the brown line (falling channel / flag).
gold must find support here, and we to see price rice very soon.

Note:
yes, down brown line is moved down.

2009-10-26

Gold charts

Gold daily

On daily chart we see rising channel, but price may fall some more, before begin to rise.
Gold 4h

On 4h chart we see the current support level.

Gold 4h again

Here we show the triangle we spoke about in previous posts (upper blue line, down - brown line).
Well the triangle was broken in "wrong" side.

We see there is additional support from parallel blue line, because the triangle "morphed" into down channel(something simillar happened in Gold some time ago). We are currently on the bottom of the channel, and I we are correct, we may expect rise to $ 1,065.- level.

This down channel can be view like a flag (see daily chart - lines not shown).

Dow inflation adjusted

Sell the IMF gold to China - it's a start

"The Mess That Greenspan Made" posted interesting article:
Sell the IMF gold to China - it's a start

Couple of gold charts

Weekly - Gold retrospection:Explanations - tomorrow :-)

Daily - the massive triangle: The triangle was broken, also there was kind of test of the rising channel (brown)

4 hours:The rising channel "out" of the triangle. Channel is broken at the top, but I do not think this is so important, and probably gold will fall to the bottom. See 30 min chart.

30 min Probably a bearish wedge forming. Target will be "middle" of the 4h channel ($1,018 area) or the bottom - $990-1,000 area

Gold 4h and 1w

Gold 1 week chartThe (broken) long term ex-resistance is seen @ 988 or so. This is the upper part of the "massive triangle" (bottom part is not shown). Because it was broken, now it must act as support.

Gold 4h chartWe got kind of correction to about $ 992 or so. Now we may see rice to $922 area or may be even higher. The test of massive triangle (brown line @ 970) is not impossible.

Disclosure: Bought @ 995.

Bearish case of gold

Friend of mine sent me an article, where following bearish case was presented:

Gold 1 week:

The case made is that the gold will fell inside the downtrend shown with pink lines, all way down to 650 USD area.

I do not think this may happen because:
  • The upper pink line is broken - this is same line as upper line from what I call "massive triangle". This line act as support now.
  • The both moving averages will provide support.
  • The brown line is the line from short term channel I follow last 2-3 weeks. It will provide strong support as well. It is currently @ $970.
  • Blue line is support from year 2006-2007. This support is very strong, and I do not see how it can be broken.
  • On the second chart we can see the support from year 2000 (light blue). It is currently higer than the support from 2006-2007 support. I do not see how this one will be broken as well.
Gold chart year 2000-2009:Here long term supports are shown.

Disclosure: Looking to buy speculative possition @ 970 area.

Gold 4h

Gold must decline now, because a correction is due. Best target will be the brown line - the massive triangle from daily chart (connecting $1040 , $1005 and $970 mark - see some daily gold chart).

Blue lines also will act as support.

Once the triangle is tested, raise will resume.

Disclosure: No open speculative possitions but I am looking to buy incrementaly @ $972 area.
