price in dollar at targeted level of 1.43 it could be possible that it go even higher. but i wont bet on shorting gold in aussie term
when this level reached then a corrective wave will occur bringing it back to 1200 1170 probable. it will depend how the elliot counting behave.

Yes that has little value in EUR if USD falls vs EUR. Price of gold in eur drops. If RBA should hike
I think XAUAUD short should do well.

My however incomplete money flow analysis showed that inflow in gold begun to stutter on friday spot market but was rekindled an hour before market close. Could be gold and slv have some upside to go but as i see it it's going to be essentially flat. If RBA hikes on Oct 5 XAUAUD short could be profitable.

The best investor I know (NOT a day trader) doubled his money in 2008 on the short side (of stocks), and doubled it again in 2009 on the long side. He is already shorting SLV and will add to his short position on any further rise in the silver price.

Gold is bought if and only if the alternatives bonds, cash, stocks have a high value at risk.
For bonds and cash the interest is negative. Investors in stocks fear dwindling earnings.
So gold is an alternative. It has more to do with deflation fears than with inflation fears.
But take care. Gold in EUR is falling rapidly, from 1.046,05 EUR to 948,63 EUR per ounce yesterday. This is so because gold is only traded in USD. Another interesting is price of stock index in gold. It is more interesting than Gold silver ratio for Euro. Holders of european Eur priced stocks see that stocks get more expensive relative to gold.
For US and Chinese stock holders the value of stocks drop relative to gold.
However should a stock rally start gold will drop significantly.

TBP, there are still fairly robust negative correlations between equities and yen.

Ida, Gold/ Silver ratio now belwo 60, well under 200-week MA. 25 is highly realistic target for silver before end of year & 1350 gold iis also within reach.
