Thanks as always for the weekend show guys.
Cheers.

Ditto Skeeta. Al. Cory and the gang do an amazing job. Best to all for a very prosperous and safe New Year. A

Ref Seg 7, perhaps David the ‘my my’ moment comes as soon as this April where with the expansion of the yuan gold price begins to go active.

I believe this link to be very important, so I posted it again. Article from Martin Pring with generous, long-term charts:

There’s been a rally in gold into the new year for the last two years. In deference to Avi Gilbert’s comments, and Doc’s comments, the ‘technicals on the fundamentals’ suggest that we’ll perhaps see another rally into the new year.

A positive risk/reward scenario, even though we’re technically in a bear market:

On whether The Fed pulled the trigger too early or too late, yet another rationination:

For me the important thing is interest rates vs. inflation. It appears that interest rates on the 10-year bond need to decline below inflation. Not treasury bills or the policy rate. The 10-year rate.

SEG 5…….thanks for a great show all year. My daughter says “Merry Christmas Owl”

Guest Post: “Gold Market Manipulation”, by Gary Savage

Back on Wednesday, technical analyst Gary Savage published a terrific video presentation that dissects the ongoing price manipulation in the paper gold market. Since it covers several of the topics we routinely discuss here at TFMR, I wrote Gary to ask if we could use it as a guest post and he happily obliged.

So, please take some time this weekend to watch the video below. You’ll notice that Gary points out several of the features that we’ve followed for years. For example, Gary discusses the downtrend that has been enforced since 2013. Here at TFMR, we call this “The Nemesis Line” and the significance of this trendline and succession of lower lows is well known to Vault subscribers.

I take it gary savage is no longer doing commentary for you

It is official………….OBAMA has increased the size of the DEBT, … during his term
from $10 Trillion to $18 Trillion(in round figures) Job well done.

D Morgan mentions huge PM demand from India and China, I read a few days back demand is weakening due to the Chinese economy slowing and weak monsoons.
Seems we hear and have proof of both outlooks, all I know is demand is still met with available supply.
I think I agree with Mr Morgan when he says psychology affects price.

Al, I think you enjoy provoking…religious antagonism..

Gold the Update – Armstrong….does the Cabal need to extend and pretend until 2017?

What does the Doc think about conventional market next week? And after the New Year? And thank you all for this great website. Doc is still my favorite technician of all time!

“The Big Short:” 2008 Repackaged Into 2016

History, with all her volumes vast, hath but one page. – Lord Byron

“The Big Short” is a must-see movie. Adapted from the Michael Lewis’ non-fiction book, “The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine,” it brings to life Walls Street’s fraud-infused world of credit default swaps (CDS) and collateralized debt obligations (CDOs, which were at the center of the collapse of the housing market and the financial system in 2008.

Now that Ben Bernanke has “successfully” saved our system from its demise (sarcasm intended), it’s easy to bury the past and disremember the degree of fraudulence and criminality that had engulfed mortgage and housing markets. It still blows my mind and angers me to think that people like Angelo Mozilo not only never went to jail, but they were never properly investigated for their role in fomenting the biggest fraud – up to that point in time – in history.

Wishing everyone a belated very merry happy Ramahanaquanzmas!

Great show. Thanks for all your efforts this year. You guys are far too kind to me though especially as I am so obnoxious some days but I appreciate the compliments. Have a great New Year all and may I wish you a belated Merry Christmas.

Bird…Hello. I think you deserve the compliments more than me. You & Matthew do so much for this site, I hope 2016 is the year you two work together you both could do a great double act. But a little of me hopes you & Matthew have the odd cat fight as is seems to bring out in the best of you two , when you make up.
I also HOPE the usual crew on here ..( cfs..bb..rev..uk bob..etc ) keep posting as you all provide SO MUCH helpful & important info that we all benefit from.
I also know that there are a lot of people out there that listen-in , & read the comments everyday but never comment…Come Come don’t be shy chip in . The more people we have providing info & thoughts the better it is for all of us.

Well put Tony. We can all be obnoxious BM from time to time, so no offence taken by me from the past – Quite funny in fact that you’ve sometimes wanted to tear this old Rev to shreds from time to time. So trust me 2016 is a whole new year and I wish you and yours all the very best, Andrew

I read somewhere, I can’t remember where, that technical analysis only accounts for 10% of trading success. 60% Comes down to trading psychology. I can’t remember what the other 30% was lol.

Doc,
Thanks for the acknowledgement. Coming from you, I take as a meaningful compliment!

The segment about technical analysis with You and Cory was really good. I think watching the ” true ” fundamentals gets you to the right asset classes. And then the technicals take over regarding the trade.

Temple had an interesting parallel regarding Jesus in this day in time. I really never thought of things in that context. That was great! Thanks Chris.

Thanks Big Al, Cory, and Doc for all you do. Thanks to all the contributors on this site for sharing all the information and laughs.

I find that all technical indicators are lagging. When trading, I look at the price action in real time on the daily, 60 and 30 minute charts and time my entries from the 5 minute chart. I also use finonacci, simple support and resistance coupled with basic trend lines. I find you have to get as close as possible to the real time price action.

Technical analysis is good for timing your entry but once you’re in a trade, your emotions take over – that’s what I have had difficulty conquering.
