A Gold Trade for This Week
By Sean E. Blair
June 10, 2010

August gold is leaving little "technical" gaps all over the place. Classical technical analysis suggests that gaps on a chart will be filled. (It doesn't specify when though.) I will not worry about the gap on the downside being filled and instead, focus on the upside.

Should gold attempt another high I will tentatively focus on the 1267.0 area to initiate a short position with an initial profit objective of perhaps the 1257.3 area. If gold moves up rather soon I could imagine a $20 - $30 fall from its highs, similar to the one from 1254.5 down to 1223.1.

That's why it's so hard to buy a dip or stay on a trend -- the corrections can be pretty deep.


I prefer to sell to someone who wants to buy at semi-outrageous new highs and ride his 'slap on the wrist' down a little ways. I'm more comfortable when I'm on the other side of someone's trade when I believe they are most likely doing the wrong thing. (In this case, chasing the market).

Long term trading is a whole 'nother ball game.

The 60-minute bar chart below is making an 'upside down' bear arm formation (thought you'd heard 'em all, huh?). Translation: The formation is bullish. Bear Arms can produce big moves from where the shoulder turns. In this case, since it's an upside down Bear Arm we could see a move (perhaps rapid) well beyond the recent highs of 1254.5.
