The Euro Is About To…
Blow chunks, suck donkey dick, or whatever metaphor you want to use if it breaks through and closes below $1.35. Could it be temporary? I don't know but the daily chart (not shown in this post) already shows the 50 … Continue reading
Would You Buy Gold Now?
Well would you? Or would you wait till $1021ish? What's everyone's long term outlook on Gold?
Gold Trend Busted, For Now Anyway
Yeah, the Gold upward trend got busted in my system around December 8, 2009. My stop would've been hit at $1150.53 and since I own some physical gold too, I started debating my exit strategy from that. I'll go long … Continue reading
Commodity Index – At Least The WMA Remains Bullish For Now

Gold At $1000? Or $2000?
Although I’m still on vacation, I had to pop in and check on what the markets are doing. Stepping away from the markets is a great way to change your perspective and hopefully see any traps I might be stumbling … Continue reading
Genetically Speaking, Watch Gold!
Late last week I was working on a Genetic Algorithmic model and analyzed the current state of the market with it. I wasn’t surprised at all when I found that Gold, not necessarily oil, is the major driving force of … Continue reading
Timing Model Indicator Is Dropping!
This is good news, my Timing Model volatility indicator is actually dropping. It peaked at 2.9 on 3/17 and has steadily dropped to 1.79 as of yesterday’s close. This confirms my cautious belief that the market has bottomed but we’re … Continue reading
