With skeptics on the sidelines and unpredictable price action ahead, this rally could outsmart the crowd and leave doubters scrambling to catch up.
If anyone doubted gold is headed to the 2771.00 target touted here earlier, their skepticism should have been dispelled by Friday’s close at the intraday high, well above the midpoint Hidden Pivot resistance at 2549.30. The previous day’s close was above it as well, further shortening the odds that the target will be achieved, and possibly exceeded. Price action has been squirrelly enough with so many skeptics sitting on the sidelines, but we might expect the trend to turn even more evasive now that ‘everyone’ wants to be on the same side of the trade.
Trends that are easy to exploit don’t exist, so don’t be surprised at whatever gold does to fool the majority. If I were Mr. Market, I would screw laggards and doubters by accelerating the upthrust, giving them yet another reason to remain on the sidelines as they wait for better prices. Bargains have come all too frequently since April, often in our faces, but you can bet that has changed.
