My Gold Trading Strategy As At November 16, 2014

Gold has had an interesting week, a couple days of consolidation and then a sharp move to the upside where it was stopped by pivot resistance

On this first  chart is the Center of Gravity indicator and also the Semaphore indicator. You will see that the Semaphore Indicator is not yet indicating that the bottom has been reached. Instead it is showing that a further decline may occur. While these indicators are not always reliable, it is interesting that they are showing that the upward move has hit an area of resistance and may fall back

The second chart shows the weekly pivot, although price tried to crass the pivot each day, it was not until Friday that it finally marched past the weekly pivot.

This is a weekly chart and shows a Fibonacci Pattern that indicates an end to the down trend. These indicators can reprint and also are not reliable in all cases. However, the indicator is suggesting a trend change.

This next chart is a 4 hour chart showing the weekly pivot and a support level below and a resistance level above. For several days price was straddling the pivot and then Friday price dropped to the first support and bounced up through the pivot to the first resistance area where it was stopped.. I see a wick at the top of the last candle which may indicate a coming weakness when the markets re open.

This last chart shows daily bars and the Ichimoku Cloud, you will notice that the cloud id quite thick indicating that any move north is going to meet with considerable resistance.

Here are some discussions regarding the Gold market. From these it is hard to get an idea as to which way prices may move in future.
