well I watched $2500 give back today right back to the 200dma. You might be right, this last move up might be 4:C with 5:C down now in progress. I was nervous about the pattern being $5 shy of symmetry coinciding with the 61.8% level.

George, for CL the 7th Nov low made the 70.7% ret level for the swing up from June low to Sept high. From that low it might have completed a 1 up and 2 down with 3 up in progress. It's also now above its 200 DMA so I am bullish unless it falls back below c.91.50. (current 93.50)

For gold (GC) it made $5 shy of 61.8% corrective ret for the same pattern as crude. Looks like clean ABC down from the 1798 high with the 100% symmetry coinciding with the 61.8% level at c.1630. That low made was also a failed break of the trend support line drawn from the 16th May low. Gold also is now back above its 200 DMA so I am bullish unless 1652 were taken out (current 1693)

I feel ready for a bout of irrational exuberance :-)

Not so fast. Always rumor coming 1 minute before NY close. All one has to do is to place long and short stop entry above and below present price and whoopy...400:1 leverage CFD...
Its really that silly.
Now rumor: reduced fiscal cliff plan by white house may be passed by GOP. No idea what reduced plan is...
algos no idea either... never mind. But USDx and bonds reacted, EURx , too. Started fx spot EURUSD long EURJPY long right away.

in this world, nothing is real, so does gold. if people believe gold is inflation hedge, then it is. as long as world dont have single currency, gold just work as proxy. euro is the first step, we are going to the single currency world.

in addition, manipulator dont need to sell real gold to asia, and at least the amount china gold import can be tracked.
