Hello all,

A new member here from Indonesia, been a watcher for the gold market for years. but recently have been looking into learning technicals and all. at least a couple thousand posts i have been following here. One that impressed me most has gotta be beeb's Fork techniques. The recent argument made one of the most contributive user here to stop posting and i felt the last few days kind of lost looking for levels of support and resistance beeb normally illustrates.

Mitch

From what I can see on gold H1 chart, I would say that there are 3 options at the moment:

1. A move to ~1900-1910 with pullback to 30SMA H1, then continuation of uptrend (most likely, I don't believe it could hit 1910 and reverse as there would be many buyers for new highs).

2. A move down to 30SMA on H1, and then a move up to possibly a new record.

3. Consolidation until it meets 30SMA, then a bullish breakout (again, I think bullish breakout is more possible).


Check how price interacts with 30SMA (green line) on H1 chart. Bouncing off of it. It usually scores around 50$ higher than the 30SMA before it pulls back to it, that's why 1910 might be possible before pulling back a bit.
Because of low expected volume, I guess the 3. case has most chances.

The obvious s/r levels re marked here for you to ponder. Personally I wouldn't be going long here......not until the previous top is taken out. The risk/reward isn't great, and that is further underscored by this less than convincing bull run since the NFP dust is starting to settle.....see the green circle.

By the way.....rather than some people here crying about beebs pitchfork analysis not showing up.....there is tons and tons of information, tutorials, forums etc etc online so you do not need to rely on other peoples analysis, which may or may not be correct, but you can learn to fork yourself.

FWIW though.....forks need to be drawn before the fact, not after the fact, and a well drawn fork can usually yield a lot of pips for quite some time. There is a forum here about pitchforks, and there once was an exponent of Andrews Pitchfork analysis used to post on the eurusd thread, but he has gone quiet for quite a long time now.....pity because his forks were spectacular in their accuracy.

Anyway, don't rely on other peoples analysis.......do you your own!

Edit: In case some of you don't know, what I have circled is the classic Evening Star formation. It won't be confirmed until the close of the current candle, but it's looking good. Click Here for the Evening Star definition if you want to

Ok so here's my analysis:

If silver can drop below 42.83, then I think you have a low risk short opportunity here with a stop just above the channel high at 43.40.
My question is where would you look to flip as the friendly trend is up?

As of now, silver would need to bounce off the lower yellow boson line near 38.70 for me to think about buying. Too much overhead resistance here. Also
Aussie markets were selling off tonight and seems the CRB index is cooling a bit here in initial trade.

Evening Start formation invalidated.....now we'll have to see whether it breaks the recent high

A trip to 81 now would mean a double top on H1. The day is pretty slow because of the holiday, I don't expect any big moves but slow crawl.

I agree but NY open maybe even LO will get things rolling
Posible stall at 1911 then break up to maybe 1940

If your going to short watch the daily highs respond.
Heres a retest of that now of the 1901 area .
silver should follow her and shes sitting at your 42.83 area at that, they will lead the way all we have to do is follow.
they both went south when gold droped from 1901 and turned around at silvers anticipated 42.05-25 area posted earlier as mon pivot and fri. breakout retest area.

Not enough locations open. This would be the time when US was open alone, now it's closed anyway so charts look funny.
