Gold's former breakout line becomes support!
Back in January, I made a call that gold was likely to break to the upside. It did, and proceeded to rally much further than I targeted. In the past few weeks, however, gold has since faltered and has been dealt a fast and precipitous move to the downside.
Fundamentally, gold should be well supported here as the Fed has essentially telegraphed that they are not afraid to let inflation rise. Their fear du jour is simply that any action they take in terms of hiking rates will be met with sharp declines in the stock market. Essentially, their hands are tied and inflation will likely creep higher before they bother to do anything about it.
Technically, gold has collapsed through its relevant daily moving averages and we are in 'catch a falling knife' mode. However, frequently past trendlines stay relevant and, as illustrated in the chart above, I believe the trendline that was once resistance will now be support.
It's as good a place as any to buy gold.
Buy GC or GLD here @ 1288 (in the futures)
Target 1: 1301
Target 2: 1311
Stop: Below the trendline (currently around 1281).
