How I Nailed $5090oz

Feb 4, 2026 11:44 | by Ashraf Laidi

Yesterday at about 7:45 am London time, when gold stood at $4915/oz, I shared my trades with the WhatsApp Bdcst Group identifying $5020 and $5090. The Instagram Live lasts about 40 mins and has sufficient English to explain how I arrived at $5090. After reading this, you shall find that gold peaked at exactly $5090. Watch the recording here.

2x our Gains in 8 Weeks

On December 5th I told our WhatsApp Bdcst Group I bought shares in Applied Opto Electronics at $26. Yesterday, it hit $49. The WhatsApp Bdcst Group contains messages of what I (Ashraf) do and NOT what I tell the members to do. I do NOT give advice, I do NOT give recommendations. I tell members what I (me) (Ashraf) am buying, how I am cutting my losses, hedging them or diversifying. I only use leverage in metals, indices and currencies but never NEVER leverage in single stocks or bitcoin. My social media (Youtube, Instagram) are full of my takes on gold, silver and metals. But hardly anyone knows what I do with stocks and the ideas i share with my Group. Expand your mind, diversify your portfolio and be a better investor.

4500 and 72 Hit, now what?

Feb 2, 2026 2:22 | by Ashraf Laidi

If you missed last night's video, I posted 4500 and 72 as targets for gold and silver respectively from my Friday charts. Here is a quick video on the likely support levels in gold and silver following Trump's announcement to appoint Kevin Warsh to head the Federal Reserve. Despite the cacophony of pundits' comments concerning Warsh's economic stance (and change of mind) about inflation and productivity, he remains a maverick able to surprise the markets and even Trump. 3 mins video.
