Anyway you look at it, last week was a very positive one for the precious metals.  The big news is the upside breakout above 3.5% in the yield of 10-year T-notes.  With rising commodity prices across the board, people around the world are increasingly recognizing that inflation is getting worse.  Higher T-note and T-bond yields are just more evidence.

Gold
1) Long two positions from $1339.60 bought on the Comex spot gold close on February 1, 2011.  Stop-out point: sell one position at an intraday stop-out point if Comex spot gold trades at $1342.00. If stopped out, then re-buy this position if the Comex spot gold price subsequently trades above $1352.00.  Sell one position at an intraday stop-out point if Comex spot gold trades at $1324.00.
