Hi Rehab My Dow Position is now in profit again. I stuck to this trade despite being just points from being stopped out. This weakness might be temporary but theoretically I am looking for a break of 15782 Olu {image}

Olu, nice calls on the Dow & Crude.

Thanks Olu, I have taken profit on half and have left the rest to run, I'm a bit wary of holiday season and santa claus rally given the time of year. Whats your target on this trade?

Hey srt, really nice charts, I have never looked at such diverse commodities before, looks like they move well. Also nice to find markets that are not correlated so closely as fx pairs are. Who do you trade them with?

I have just closed out completely. I am looking for a retracement and further falls though. Chart is showing a H&S now (unconfirmed)

The target of the trade when I entered was the 15790 low but I cant ignore the H&S on the chart worth 350 more points to the downside if confirmed.

Hi Trexy

If the $ were to be get stronger as it is threatening to do now all commodities including Crude might get some weakness. Check out those railroads (reversal candles pair) at previous resistance. There is also bearish divergence.

Thanks.
I use a few different brokers depending on if I'm trading, futures, forex, equities or options(futures/equities). Since you're in a different country you probably don't have access to them anyhow. Best to search for the one with the best spreads if trading forex. The futures market is a central market so don't have to worry about the spread, just get the lowest cost of commissions as long as you can trust them. My charts are not always from the broker I trade with, just have better charts for posting comments.

My gold position hit SL (thanks god with profit) but my bullish Dow hit SL with a loss. It is really amazing how market shifts from bullish to bearish to bullish...it is like sailing a boat in a rough sea. I am out for the holidays guys. Next week I am flying home to enjoy mama´s food and meeting with old friends. Merry Christmas and Happy new year for everyone. See you next year

{quote} "My thoughts about gold and silver have happened. I am now turning bearish again on both of them "-Olu I remain bullish on silver. Price is at a pretty big resistance area on the weekly chart but if it can get through this around 20.47 I think it could move up to the 21.50-22 area. The key level that needs to hold now is around 20 on the downside. {image} {image} {image}

I got this one wrong. I thought silver would get through resistance @ 20.47 but should have paid attention to the obvious resistance I drew on the weekly chart. I left my bias get in the way. Broke through support area & retested so not looking too good for the bulls :-(
Nice call Olu.

Srt

I agree with you on silver and gold. It is not looking good at all. While I think we can go to new lows I believe industry might just intervene. I read somewhere that the cost of production of gold is about $1000 or thereabouts. so miners are feeling the heat right now. Think about all that profit they were making when it was 1800

$ is gaining some strength yet WTI Crude is gaining as well. I was looking for some more downside in WTI. All the crude selling is being done in the Brent Crude oil
