    There is a bull-bear battle going on today that I think the bears are going to lose. Here’s an example:

        Stewie,

        Although I have in the past made a remark or two towards mr polny and his calls, I have realized I should have been more pleasant. His calls are way out there but in reality he may end up being right towards the long haul. I just happen to think his timing was off by a tad but I believe the consensus in here not being bird would be one of on the right track.

          Jan 22, 2015 22:22 AM

          forgive my spelling.

    Jan 21, 2015 21:31 AM

    I agree on gold needing to break 1347 and then after that 1382 to confirm a change in the direction from the 3+ years of bear market. However, the next few days may get a bit crazy and we may push down to 1250-1260, before resuming the uptrend for the intermediate cycle.

      Jan 21, 2015 21:42 AM

      I personally think that the next few days will definitely get a little crazy, Shad!

        Jan 21, 2015 21:25 PM

        Prepare to start up the whip-saws in all the markets!!

        Everyone has been waiting for about a week for Euro situation tomorrow, the PMI numbers get reported on Friday, and then the Greek vote on Sunday. That should be enough variables for some wild swings each day from the pent up cash waiting to be deployed, and covering directional bets that go sour. I am sitting on the sidelines until the beginning of next week unless a particular market gets an over-extended move.

          Jan 21, 2015 21:41 PM

          Not a bad idea Shad.

    Jan 21, 2015 21:08 PM

    Cory, you might also have caught the BOC saying that they are anticipating the country will enter recession by mid 2015 and that factored in the decision. GDP growth got a downward revision on expectations. The whole world is slowing down together in front of our eyes. Housing is not going to be spared in Vancouver this time around. I think their number is finally up.

      Jan 21, 2015 21:20 PM

      I disagree bird,

      Boc said the same thing and did the same thing in 2009 with rates and we all know what went on to happen with gold/miners. Same recipe in my books. Same body language bird. There is a trend change this time around. I know its hard to believe after so many years. The central banks have there backs to the wall this time.

        Jan 21, 2015 21:16 PM

        Sorry Glen….which part did you disagree with? That housing would not fall or that the BOC is predicting a recession?

          Jan 21, 2015 21:35 PM

          Disregard Bird. I misunderstood.

      Jan 21, 2015 21:43 PM

      If it falls in Vancouver, a lot of people will be seriously hurt!

      Jan 21, 2015 21:28 PM

      Hope your right on Van I mean Hongcouver. Man this place has been ruined over the last 20..

    Jan 21, 2015 21:21 PM

    big money bank stocks struggling . take a look at bank of america stock. Big banks and brokers were to much involved in currency trading. very risky behavior. We as consumers are at risk. I would advise people to keep thier bank deposits in smaller local banks or credit unions. Also to avoid keeping everything in one bank or brokerage account. Just in case one of them goes bankrupt or suppends service.

      Jan 21, 2015 21:44 PM

      Great comment, Scott!

    Jan 21, 2015 21:05 PM

    Good commentary guys.
    Stay tuned.

    how come Gary doesnt talk about Chindia gold & silver buying… or is he only technical..?

      Jan 21, 2015 21:45 PM

      Pretty much a technician, Sally.

    Cory

    Your comments on trading the gold shares and how it would make you uneasy.
    To each his own.
    First of all the miners have a tremendous tail wind with the over the cliff oil price, along with the increasing gold price. This does add to your confidence in trading this sector, but more importantly the technicals are ALL flashing green and the fundamentals have all aligned.
    As for sleeping at night I have never had any problem with sleeping at night. Mainly because I insist on the use of stops to keep the emotion out of my trading.
    I have to say that there are two very important aspects of trading
    1) The entry
    and
    2) The position of the stops and this one is very stratigic and must be constantly tinkered with rising suport levels and trendle lines (very very very important).
    That is why I commented on Gary statement of keeping a close stop, totally totally wrong, but again to each his own. I have alot of experience with this and you have to let the market express itself and let it tell you if it is holding support, or let the market tell you it is breaking support period..
    I apprieciate Gary’s opinion on stops, but my experience tells me different.
    So tonight I will definately have no problem sleeping tonight Cory 🙂
    It is tomorrows statement from Dragi which might throw some volitility into the price action and stop positioning is extra important.

    Guys this ECB f…en stinks to me. Gold has got today shooting star candle reversal.
    I don’t like this, First it was miners now gold formed classic reversal candle. If ECB was positive we would not be getting reversal candle stick.

    Stewie
    Yes the gold market posted a topping candle but it still needs to confirm the break down., we need to see the price action tomorrow or the day after. If we go higher on the news after posting a topping candle that mean the market is very bullish. If we break down look for support at 1240 -1255 region, and that would correct the overbought condition of the indicators which would be health for the market.
    Have faith Stewie.

      Jan 21, 2015 21:58 PM

      +1

      Jan 21, 2015 21:47 PM

      +3

      Look closely at the volume as well stewie..Recently on down days, the volume has been dismal. It is still showing me bulls are winning this battle thus far.

    Armstrong chimes in… Gold – The Week of January 19th – Here We Are

    http://armstrongeconomics.com/2015/01/21/gold-the-week-of-january-19th-here-we-are/

      Jan 21, 2015 21:44 PM

      Here’s the reasonable part that actually matters:
      “A daily closing back below 1284 will warn of a retest of support. A closing on Friday below 1287 will also warn of at least a temporary high. A closing back below 1255 will signal a correction is now likely.”

        Jan 22, 2015 22:23 AM

        Matt what support are you talking about if 1284 is broken? What number?

          Jan 22, 2015 22:38 AM

          Glen, those are Martin’s words from the link above.

            Jan 22, 2015 22:57 AM

            OK disregard.

            Jan 22, 2015 22:08 AM

            TBT looks good here. If you’re into that sorta thing 😉

            Jan 22, 2015 22:16 AM

            Never really looked at it but will keep an eye on it now.

            Thanks.

            Jan 22, 2015 22:16 AM

            Hui is playin and toying with us as to go down and get the gaps?

            Jan 22, 2015 22:35 AM

            Hard to say (more like impossible), but risk is definitely substantially elevated. However, I can’t be a heavy seller here based on what I’m seeing. Of course any buying I do will be kept to select tiny juniors. I picked up one yesterday that is up 125% overnight on almost 2M shares.
            Check out the volume spike at the top —that was LPG. It IS cause for short term concern. Tread lightly.

            Jan 22, 2015 22:20 AM

            lol,

            Nice trade..

            Jan 22, 2015 22:52 AM

            To be clear, in my little joke that LPG was responsible for that volume, I meant on the sell side (smart)!
            Btw, SGDM now has a P&F price objective of $34.50 😮

            Jan 22, 2015 22:58 AM

            I gotcha Matt 🙂

    Jan 22, 2015 22:17 AM

    Gary,

    Your scenario of dollar parabolic up to touch 94 seems to be happening. I think there is a blow of top/bottom in currency happening as i type. Could turn now or next week. But it feels like soon.
