08 January.
Gold XAUUSD
- * Gold headed higher yesterday to recover 2 days of losses.
- * As is typical in a sideways market, prices reversed again & won back losses to retest last week’s high at last week’s high at 2662/65, with a high for the day exactly here again.
- * At this stage there is no indication of a trend starting so we make do with the choppy conditions, where prices keep reversing throughout the day.
- * As you know, moving averages & Fibonacci levels are of no use in these conditions.
- * Minor resistance at last week’s high at 2662/65 is key to direction today
- * Bulls need a break above here to target 2672/75, perhaps as far as 3 month trend line resistance at 2688/92.
- * Failure to beat last week’s high at 2662/65 saw prices reverse quickly again to 2642.
- * Minor support at 2635/30.
- * A break below 2630 can target 2625/23, perhaps as far as this week’s low at 2616/14.
- * There’s a very short term trend line at 2610/07 which may offer support today but longs need stops below 2604.
- * We must wait for a breakout of the sideways pattern but I expect this to take some time – could be a couple of weeks.
Silver XAGUSD
- 1. Silver remains unable to sustain a move in 1 direction for long in the erratic, random sideways pattern.
- 2. We could meet resistance at 3055/3065 today but shorts need stops above 3095.
- 3. We could find support at 2690/80 (a low for the day here yesterday) but longs need stops below 2960.
- 4. A break below 2660 risks a slide to 2925/20.
- 5. Below 2910 look for a tret of the December double bottom low at 2885/75.
6. A break of December’s low of 2872 targets 2850, perhaps as far as 2830/25.
- WTI Crude February future.
Last session low & high: 7311 – 7453.
(To compare the spread with the contract that you trade). - * WTI Crude could also begin trading in a sideways range.
- * We made a low for the day at support at 7320/00 in the very early hours of the morning but longs need stops below 7275 if the level is retested today.
- * A break lower risks a slide to 7210/7190.
There is likely to be resistance again at 7465/85 & we did make a high for the day just a few tocks below here yesterday.
- * However on a break above 7500 look for 7555/65. In overbought conditions this may be as far as we can go but shorts need stops above 7605.
