Significant breakout in gold...

took out $657...now at 666...oooooh!image

Should go higher...this is the "quiet, non-frenzied" 3rd wave. It could last for a year and move nice and slow. There are 5 waves....this has been a picture prefect bull market that started in 2001-2002.

Stay tuned.

    Does "breakout" mean the same as "moved to the top of it's price range?"

    I could single handedly make the price of gold plumet if I wanted to. All it would take is for me to invest in it and it would drop like a rock right after I made payment.

    Have you ever found my language to be vague?image

    It has broken out from previous highs, and various other technical factors (MACD, etc.) have confirmed this. Nothing says it won;t do some work at this price, but it's just reconfirmed what many of us knew. Gold will go higher.

    I make no projections based on time frame...but certainly $725-$750 is in the future.

    The good news - your Gold Eagles and Saints are worth more.

    The bad news - your 2007 Gold purchases will cost more.

    Gold could hit $400 on it's way to $1000-$1500. That's all part of the fun as the Loose Louie's get shaken out on each
    down turn. During the mid 1970's gold experienced a 50% correction. Only the strong and true believers survive.

    You aren't getting it Clad. It doesn't matter. If gold just hovers here for a few days and eventually takes out yesterday's high it's all good. This wave should take us back over $700.

    You guys always get excited when gold is just operating in the same range that it has been for the past year. Let me know when it goes to 680 and stays there two weeks. Otherwise it is just random movement and operating in a zone. Check the Kitco one year history for gold and see what I am talking about.

    NO. I don't get TOO excited. I have only been tracking gold since 1977. And no one is gonna let you know anything....

    You do your homework and I'll do mine. But don't start preaching. I have nailed this market for as long as I've been watching it, and what I see is what I see. By thetime your'e onboard gold will be 690 and climbing.

    I'll stand by my analysis.

    A year ago gold was at $550. Today it's at $650. That's an increase of nearly 20%. 2 years ago gold was at $420. That's a 2 year increase of over 50%. 3 years ago gold was trading at $400. 4 years ago gold was trading at $350. 5 years ago it was trading at $300. A 5 year increase of over 100%. Everything has short-term "zones" as you call them, but those "zones" trend up or down, and in gold's case it's been trending up for 5 consecutive years. Gold has a long way to go to catch up to where it should be relative to the worthless dollar. That is just my opinion. To say that gold has been the winner the past 5 years is a documented fact, unless you can find the oddball stock that did better--of course, and bought it back when it was at bottom.

    Well said, Lou Gehrig.

    We are in a primary bull market, after a 21 year bear market.

    These bull phases aren't just blips, aren't short-lived, and have lot's of volatile shake-outs in the process. Since the bull market began it's been almost picture-perfect.

    Some will say it's because of oil, the dollar, the Arabs...whatever...I say it's because of GOLD. It is what it is, and everything and nothing cause it to move. GOLD is a primary commodity...and always has been. It leads others...

    If an investment is obviously in a rising trend and price channel, why conclude it is moving randomly and not worthy of investment?

    Thanks for the kitco tip , while I was there I also looked at the 30 day , 5 year and 10 year charts ( I get burned just looking at 1 chart). Kinda looks like a long term UPTREND to me.

    Gold has had a nice uptick in the past two months. But I still see no evidence of a breakout from the original date of the post. Yes, gold and silver have moved with ALL metals over the past few years. As a wise investor once said it is not as important to have the right company stock as it is to be in the right sector. I agree wholeheartedly and in this case the sector is metals. Gold is just one of them.

    This is not to say that I do not believe gold will move upward. I certainly believe platinum will over the next year. But isnt that why all this speculation is fun.

    It looked like the shorts tried to engineer another massive drop in the
    prices of the metals over the weekend and failed. If so then we are on
    the verge of another leg up. This one would be longer and higher than
    the last, though it still feels too early for the market to move. Silver is
    exceedingly dicey right now. If you're invested it's a good time to sit tight.
    If not, then it may be getting close to too late, or a chance to get in.

    The wide trading range is beginning to break down. Silver needs to get
    through $14 quick if it's going to ride gold's coattails.

    A 50% shakeout is entirely possible along the way. Imagine a move to $1000 that falls back to $500? The naysayers will be convinced the move in gold is "finally" dead, though they say that after every correction that has occurred the past 5 years.

    As Lou said, until you break the long term bull trend for good, the market is gonna run.

    I think that $500 is an ancient relic but I can see a run and then a 50% shakeout back to $750 in the future . Just hope that it is my lifetime.

    I enjoy a good discussion, but I CAN'T BELIEVE that some of you doubt my thread!! (and my work)image

    When I say there's a breakout....there IS a breakout. I think some of you expect an immediate follow-through, some want to see a $25+ gain as a followup, whatever.

    All I need, using 30+ years of experience with technical analysis and fundamental indicators is to see 5 things occur. (I am not giving the recipe) I call that the 100% situation. WE have it.

    Gold is in it's 3rd wave...and as I said, this wave can easily last a year, and it doesn't tend to be a headline-grabbing, dynamic, back-up-the-truck type of move this time. It's the long, slow in your face, stealthy move. By the time the talking heads start chattering gold will be $690 or higher...

    Well, its at 662.80 as I type, and it's going higher. image
