I'm quite new to trading and I am still learning the dynamics of fundamentals.
1)From what Peter Ruud has said about the Eur/Usd it is now moving up.
2)From another source, I am told the cycle has started for this pair and it will start to trend higher.
3) On a daily chart the price has broken through the descending wedge, and has a target of 1.38 region
4) I think Gold correlates with Eur/Usd, so with this in mind, Gold may go up as well

Cool --- You mention RBA may increase rates, would this push AUD/NZD. I'm interested in this as I am in a short position as per the HOT CHART and would really like this pair to come down. Any insight would be grateful

pipped off, the RBA might increase rates next week. in which case we might see some upside to audusd. since audusd and gold mirror each other, i am wondering if gold will rise too? will we get the 1070-50-20 levels most of us are looking for?

@BuyGold-cause it works like this.

If I was in the stock market and thought there was a 90% chance a stock I thought had good long-term prospects was going to decline 10% before it started up, I wouldn't really care and would go long.

However, we are talking about a commodity here: Gold. And for Gold, I DO care, and WILL profit $$ on that 10% correction. In fact, I'll take just half that amount TO THE BANK.

Next week gold will be paying the shorts as if they are betting DON'T PASS at the crap table. After collecting $$ on don't pass, I will be more than ecstatic to switch over to the shooter's side and wager on pass. Or in this case, go long Gold.

@Buygold: Interesting, although perhaps more relevant to the Euro thread.

Inflation concerns? Is anyone seriously concerned about inflation at this point?

Well, let's see, what will be the price of gold next week? don't know. what will be the price of gold the end of the year? what will be the price of gold in 3 years? 5 years? 10 years? most probably up, and up a lot. So what's this bet against it for? $50? $100? Do you need this money in such an urgent? Why not trade for an almost sure thing rather than a simple guessing?

"Mr. Einhorn, meanwhile, who was among the earliest and most vocal bears on Lehman, said he is bullish on gold because of inflation concerns."

@pippedoff Thank you for your moral support! I'm short from 1100, hoping to catch the move down since then!

I don't like the way Gold has been trading today since its burst up. Whatever the reasons for the last $20 rally arde OVER, and gold is RIPE for the plucking. LOAD UP shorts, and enjoy the ride!
