Gold 8h

I expected the gold to rise to middle blue line, it currently found support at the brown line, but it may still fall to the bottom blue support.

On the upside, there is a triangle that may be broken soon. If broken price may go crazy to ~1480 or even bit more.

Gold - updated channel

Gold 4h

The brown channel we looking it was broken. Here is what looks to be the updated channel - in pink.

Gold - buying on a dip

Hopefully now gold will once again rise :-)

Gold charts

Gold 1 day

There is no real change here, price target is very high - @ 1,470's.

Gold 4h

On 4h chart we see how the short term blue channel is broken (it is parallel to the blue channel in the daily chart), and currently the brown channel is in play. Target there is in low 1,430's. After that we will see "small" correction to 1,400's (currently is ~1,404). The "upper" blue line may act as support too, but at the time of the correction I believe it will be "lower" that the brown line (current projection is ~1,405).

Bernanke Is 100% Sure

Bernanke On 60 Minutes

EURo

There are interesting development in the EURo. 4h chart is bearish, but 1 day chart is bullish.
At the beginning we will see fall to brown line (on the daily chart), then we may or may not see rise of the EUR/USD.

Gold chart and so called H&S

First about so called H&S - Gold raised to 1396.60. This invalidate the H&S formation, because left peak was only to low 1380 area.

Currently the blue channel is in play. There are additional smaller channel in brown.

However, I am certain than those channels will be broken and price will go higher than the channel top, but there are no technical evidences for this scenario.

Gold chart

16 hours gold chart. Gold rising probably because Korea.
Note some analysts thinks there is H&S forming and we are at second shoulder. We will know that very soon. Hopefully price will rise more that 1,386 USD which will invalide the formation.

Meanwhile EURo was smashed to 1.33 USD - probably because Island.

Update: Interesting action in silver - go slightly down. This means Gold went up because of Korea.

Dow is 11,403.85
Dow/Gold ratio - 8.14 (March was 6.90)

1h EUR Chart

Lots of trend lines, pink lines are interesting, but we need to wait and see.

Charts

EUR/USD 4h

EUR looks like topped already and if brown/pink support fail will go to the formal resistance @ ~1.39.90 (blue).

---

Silver 12h

Interesting chart in silver. We have perfect channel on 12h chart. Price will top here and will go to support @ 24 area. 

---

Gold 12h

...and...

Gold 4h

Gold is currently at the support in 1,384/6 area. We could see top here (and because of silver chart I think we will see the top). Then support will be @ 1,365 area (brown) and 1,338 area (blue).

Updated charts

Thank you Bernanke,

Gold 8h

hopefully, we now, will see triangle test - 1365 area.

...and now - the big picture - Gold 1 week

target is 1480. But we could see correction before this.

Update:

Silver 8h:

Probably now silver will correct.

---

Gold 12h

Triangle is not broken here, but meanwhile prices hits 1,380, so triangle is very well broken. Now the channel in blue is in tact. Actully, the blue channel was broken too, but just a little bit. We need to wait and see. will post updates very soon.

EUR/USD 4h

Very important development in EUR/USD. The resistance was broken as if it was not there. This means that the channel in brown is not that important as we thought. Expectations could be now - price to fall to bottom of the pink channel, and go once again up.

One reminder here - FED / FOMS meeting is tomorrow and we may expect lots of volatility.

Charts

Gold 12h

There is no new developments here

EUR/USD 4h

EUR unable to fall to 1.3820/30 area. Looks like the small blue channel is acting at the moment.

Charts

Gold 12h

Gold bounced from the "double" resistance lines. Hopefully it will decline some more, to the support where we would buy it again.

Silver

No chart for silver, but silver hit new high (from 24.89 to 25.03)

EUR/USD 8h

EUR/USD bounced from resistance. We will see if this is a triangle or not.

Some more - CHF, AUD, WTI

This study is not that precise, nor I will use it for trading.

CHF/USD 12h

...and CHF 12h flipped :-)

because CHF is inverse chart, we flipped it.
looks like CHF made a top and now correction is under way.

AUD/USD 8h

Unlike CHF, AUD is not topped, but now it is in formation like a rectangle. However, inside the rectangle, it made lower lows (pink line).

Other currencies

CAD and GBP going nowhere and charts are not interesting for us.

Oil (WTI) - 1 day

Crude is not dynamic at all. There is formation that first may look like rectangle, but second look shows that most of the highs are higher highs - see yellow dots. Only exceptions are the two green dost. So formation is more like upper channel.

Gold, Silver, EURo

Gold 1 week

Situation here is unchanged, but chart worth to be watch.

Gold 12h

Price raised to the upper boundary of the channel in brown. Now probably price will fell once again to ~1330 or so.

Gold 4h

Same, but I added possible downtrend channel - in pink.

Silver 8h

Looks like in silver, situation is more dynamic. We can see same channel as in gold, but channel is broken at the top.

EUR/USD 4h

EUR lagging, it is not at the top of the channel, even more - the downtrend is very well seen (brown). We also could see the uptrend channel inside the downtrend channel (pink). This could be very well a triangle.

Conclusion:
Once again we need to monitor all the charts.

Gold and EUR charts

EUR 4h

No change n developments...

---

Gold 4h

H&S is invalidated, but short-term development is still bullish.

Fern fractal

Charts

EUR/USD 4h

EUR is in down channel (blue).
At the moment it looks like a correction, but we expect the price to fall to the bottom before go up.

Silver

Silver chart is similar to gold chart so it is not included.

Gold 12h

Unlike EURo, Gold and Silver are still over the support (blue line) from recent raly. The triangle (brown) is broken, but price do not made new high, so probably the triangle or support will be tested again.

Gold 2h

On the 2h chart, we can see H&S bottom may be forming. Second sholder is at the same level as first one, so if the price fell little bit more, the H&S pattern will be invalidated.

Please note that H&S PATERN IS *NOT* FORMED UNTIL IS FORMED and require price to raise over the neckline level at ~1,350.
