Are Precious Metals Going Parabolic?
By Chris Vermeulen
May 12, 2010

It's been an exciting couple weeks in the market with gold now making new all time highs as money floods into this shiny safe haven. It has everyone all worked up wanting to take part or they are riding the rally up already. But the big question is when should some money be taken off the table to lock in gains and lower your overall risk during these crazy times? Below are a few charts showing you how I see things at this time.

GLD - Gold Exchange Traded Fund
The price of GLD and gold appear to be going parabolic (straight up). The tough part about this type of price action is that large moves can happen in a very short period of time. But on the flip side, when the price reverses we tend to see prices fall just as fast if not faster. Trading this type of price action carries a very high level of risk. Those chasing it up buying at these overbought market conditions is a double-edged knife.


SLV - Silver Exchange Traded Fund
Silver is trading similar to gold but the key difference here is that silver has not broken to a new high as of yet. The high was set in 2008 just over $20 per ounce. But from looking at the chart I think metals are ready for a breather.



Conclusion:
In short, it looks like precious metals could take a breather in the coming days. I'm not sure how large of a correction we will see but I do not think it will be all that big. Gold and silver should have a quick dip with buyers stepping back in on weakness. Last week's market crash messed things up, washing out all the stops in one day instead of weeks, but we could easily see a 5% drop in the market still. Anyway, I hope this analysis helps everyone.
