Another bunch of clear manipulation today on Metals and stocks. Interest rates remained the same, meaning that nothing has really changed since gold was at 5400. A stronger dollar is bizarre since they are spending billions on a war, strangling their own oil and trade supplies from the middle east and damaging companies around the world who deal with America. Technically the dollar should be in the toilet.
I can see an absolutely huge snapback once Trump and his cronies have stopped buying up positions.

If big Boyz hear what they already know and there is absolutely no surprise why would be there any volatility? You have already seen whole day of movement happened on gold. It is already priced in- that is my understanding. Oil looks like not reacting as expected for bad news from Iran. If oil would go down - gold n silver could move up before real drop. That is understanding however I am far fron expert in fundamentals. And I am often wrong in it
I have other type of analysis and this analysis says to me - the drop was sharp and we hit big liquidity zone- we did not break it hence either retracement or stalled for short time. Of course it can also be pushed down after NY closes however the movement was firm and no reaction of FOMC is something that you should consider as the main move of the day already took place... Before FOMC you really don't think it is interesting? You don't see anything interesting here?

Why do you think it is manipulated? Last week If you were short oil that too using significant amount of leverage you would need to come up with money to cover for your margin right?. Hedge fund portfolios have different assets and when any of the asset's ,like oil , behave the way it behaved it's going to start a chain of reaction where these funds have to sell the most liquid and profitable assets they hold to cover margin requirements. Gold is probably the profitable and most liquid in most of these portfolios so they have to sell it to get cash.

The Fed no cut rate no increase rate .No decision yet .Gold might start bullish again .
Market react at this .
Powel :High productivity lower inflation.Meaning the gold will start bullish again .
The only think we need to be aware oil driving up and strengthen the dollar.

It's clearly manipulation. Trump announced the war and that oil would be an issue, so immediately price spiked to record highs. 2 days later he announced that actually the war would be over quickly and oil wouldn't be affected, it then dropped down to below where it started. Now everyone is saying that Trump was wrong and the war will drag on for ages, so oil is back up again. Meanwhile Trump and his friends are buying and selling oil and gold and just the correct moments to make even more billions.

Partials taken, glad wasn't at the charts lol But a explosive breakout was expected. This is the reason why now i avoid Ny open... Still at lunch time to see what's going on and see this... BE will be hit most likely, worth the scalp... But caution on average this, this price can be mirrored upside... Or complete 100% weekly... Coin flip... Back later... Safe trades. {image} {image} {image}
