A quick update. GC is getting ripe and we expect some movement today (with NFP numbers) or early next week. This is a weekly chart signal so we will expect a nice move once it triggers. REMEMBER: NO TRIGGER, NO TRADE.
Still coiling. This is on our watch list. We will wait until it breaks and trade the first pause/pullback.
Gold, like silver, is forming a significant bottom as its weekly and daily RSI, Stochastics and MACD have all either turned higher or are completing their bottoming stage. Significantly, gold appears to have bounced off a major support that held May and July 2010, and June and December 2013. A respectable key upside target in the 1340 range can be expected based...
If u want play this pos be ready to get 2 or 3 pieces of position. I Target is a 1225, second is 1239 and final is a 1255. Is your choice that u close position in phases or just correct the SL after reaching the target.
Weekly close below 1181 brings 1097 then 1004 then 867 measured move target off of descending triangle consolidation pattern.

Short term bearish & bullishness but overall, sideways!
* Price hit the extension of the neckline from last year's large head and shoulders pattern and reversed almost to the penny. * Price is still in a broad range area that may prove to be choppy. Trade the range until a trend is determined. * Until price can break above the neckline extension trend line or break down back below the red descending trendline...
As I noted when I first posted this chart mid April, the 1275 level is a key support for gold. Today that support was busted. Unless bulls can rally gold back over 1275 and close a weekly candle over that figure gold will likely probe last years lows ~1200. My gut tells me that level will not hold (triple bottoms are not usually good lows) and 1050 then 950 comes...
