The “backing & filling” yesterday was not out of the ordinary. There may be more re-tests of support. Nevertheless, with each passing day the odds improve that the low in the precious metals is behind us.
Gold
1) The position bought at $1,631.00 bought on the Comex close in New York on January 10, 2012 was sold on January 11, 2012 at $1634.00, which was its stop-out point. Profit: $3.00
2) Long one position from $1,586.00 bought on January 3, 2012. Stop-out point: sell at an intraday stop-out point if Comex spot gold subsequently trades at $1622.00. (12 January 2011)
3) Long one position from $1,602.00 bought on January 3, 2012. Stop-out point: sell at an intraday stop-out point if Comex spot gold subsequently trades at $1628.00. (12 January 2011)
