Gold: Was That A Dangerous Reversal Pattern?

Published 03/15/2016, 10:57 AM

Weekly Gold

Gold has rallied over the past couple of months, taking it to the mid-range of a 5-year falling channel at (1) above. This is a weekly chart and last week while hitting resistance, Gold might have created a potential “Doji Star” reversal pattern, at (1) above. This pattern took place, with momentum at levels not seen since the highs back in 2012.

9-Week Gold

This chart looks at 9-week performance of Gold since the 2011 highs. Each time Gold has rallied 10% or greater in a 9-week time frame, it has peaked in price over the past 5 years.

Gold may have created a “Doji Star” reversal pattern at falling resistance, after being up over 10% in a 9-week time frame last week. Over the past 5 years when this combo has taken place, Gold has peaked. Gold has just experienced its strongest 9-week rally since the peak in 2011. Will its results be different this time?

This is NOT a price point where Gold bulls would want to see Gold run out of steam! For Gold to do break its 5-year trend, it needs to break above channel resistance at (1) in the top chart.

When you look at a 1 month chart you see a double top reversal at 1270. We could easily see 1116 again soon based on your charts above that show every time it spikes like this it falls back down and quick.
