Unexpected! Gold Still Locked In Downtrend.

THE GOLDEN WAITING GAME

Aw, you have to just love it. The press and the talking heads and gold merchants are forever plying their story line about GOLD dramatically rising with no limits in sight. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’d love to be able to say that this was what was going on right now, but, that would only be joining the emotional crowd and spouting ‘feel good’ market reports.

GOLD: The Whole Truth

Gold has been declining ever since 2011. That’s about 5 years now.

Yes, there has been some positive movement upwards over the last year, but, this only from the extreme lows made in December last year. Yes, there’s been lots of news about Gold lately as it has rallied to it’s present high area. But, No, this isn’t the good news most suppose.

The reason Gold is back in the news is because GOLD has rallied to a top made a year ago and, from which, it promptly declined to make new lows. We face a similar possibility again. This can be clearly seen on the chart above once we take away the emotional excitement and the bad economic news (which is everywhere it seems).

Everyone wants a rocket ride to the Moon with Gold as the launch vehicle. This will come in it’s time, but, don’t be fooled by the loud voices. These same voices have been wrong now for years. They have no credibility left or shouldn’t. For years, on this website, I’ve told the Truth about the markets over and over again. Not that the predictions were popular, but . . . they were almost always correct especially about the long-term trends and the fake rallies and dips. Those of you who have been following for years now know this to be true.

If GOLD can break above $1300 on the Weekly Close, only then, can we prepare for a real ride to the upside and an end to the 5-year decline we’ve seen. What we’re likely to see instead though is another decline to lower levels. Watch for prices to break steeply lower if we have a Daily Close below $1200. Stronger confirmation will occur if we have a Weekly Close below $1200. – George

Back To Our Price Pivot Point!

TRADING THE US DOLLAR: WATCH-POINT!

This last week provided a little dance-stepping routine above our calculated pivot price point of 94.80 which we wrote about last week.

As we were looking for a Weekly Price Close below 94.80 as further confirmation of weakening and didn’t find ourselves there on Friday last, we stood back and waited for the dance to work out it’s routine.

As expected, price bounced around on the dance floor but found itself coming back to where it began the week before. Price seems well poised to close this Friday below the pivot price of 94.80. If price does close below this price point, expect to see the US DOLLAR begin to drop out of it’s trend-less zone and start a new downtrend that should last weeks if not months. – George

US Dollar Pivot Turn Precisely Predicted

The US DOLLAR: Target Achieved!

Last week’s post on the US Dollar was ‘spot on’ for the turning point of 94.80.

What we accurately predicted was the support price for the present US DOLLAR, became the turn point where the Dollar gathered new strength for another move upwards.

The week’s close shot up away from this critical price point after touching it mid-week briefly. This is another reminder that we need to allow for some momentum within the price trends and not to depend too much on shorter-term price swings. This same support price of 94.80 will hold for this week as it did last week.

This, in case buying starts to falter again. As I’ve discussed in earlier posts, such critical price pivot areas are excellent, low-risk areas to counter-trend trade as long as one employs close STOPS close on the other side of the pivot price point. These are the prime BUY areas for market makers working within the sideways trend for the US DOLLAR at present. – George

Forex Trading: Watching The US Dollar

Forex Trading & The US Dollar: A Price Pivot Point

The majority of forex pairs consist of the US DOLLAR as one of their components.

Even though the US Dollar strengthened considerably two years ago, it’s important to realize that it has basically been in a sideways market for the last year now.

Like all sideways markets, this has favored market makers mostly who, buy the dips and sell the rallies.

By tracking the strength of this market with the 45° support angle (and other course techniques), we’ve been given some signals of weakness that need to be watched most closely.

Should prices close below 94.80 on the Weekly, we will have good confirmation that a downtrend will be underway that will likely last months or even a year plus. – George

How To Deal With A Market Turn Around

How To Deal With A Market Turn Around

Yes, it happens.

Markets can surprise any of us and the best of our logic will, eventually, have to fail us at turn around trend points of importance.

When markets change, we must adapt and quickly to the one and the only reality of the markets: Price.

Brent Crude Oil is the latest piece of ‘humble pie’ to digest.

Although all the signs were in place for the usual rally top, the last important indicator, the breaking of Brent Crude’s price below $37.50 (which we noted in our previous post) never occurred.

The 45° support line held price at bay from a steep decline. Now, this same angle line has pushed the support up to the $39 level with this price now acting as our early indicator for a price collapse if price closes below the $39 level.

Price surged upwards past the last two month’s highs indicating further strengthening and buying.

The fact that price couldn’t drop below the 45° angle showed that selling had dried up and that this price pull-back wasn’t of the same nature as the previous ones. At that point of ‘non-confirmation’, one had to accept what was being said by the Markets about the real trend of the market; prices were going higher.

Although, we could still be making a top, price must close below $39 now to confirm that the switch in trend to the downside is significant & real. – George

Crude Oil Topping Again?

Crude Oil Top?

We’re at another of those rally top areas where the bullish news for Oil starts coming back into view again.

However, this appears to be largely a distraction and counter-move by the media to disguise inside SELLING and positioning for the next leg down in Crude Oil Prices.

The red-circled area on the chart shows the topping price area where we are at present.

But, short-term price movements have already given a weakening signal that are the prelude to another price slide downwards.

$37.50 should be the first objective, A break in price below this price level will indicate a strong slide in price to come, coming down with $34.50 next.

$23 Crude Oil can be reached should these other levels fail to hold going forward. – George

Updating Our ‘Outrageous’ Stock Market Forecast

(Another of) Our ‘Outrageous’ Stock Market Forecasts Comes True

Back on February 22nd, I wrote this Post:

Stock Market Trends: The Path Least Expected

Can a Stock Market Bull be found anywhere these days?

It’s  taken a while and some pretty scary headlines to do it, but, the eternal bulls of the previous decade have finally been silenced only to pick up the eternal damnation song of the Bear Market crowd. A little prematurely, I might add.

At times like these, as I’ve written before, one needs to stand back and assess the ‘mindset of the many’.

If you do take the time to really look at the markets and use historical perspective (instead of newsmedia-driven emotions and justifications) to make your decisions, you’ll find that you’ll be standing pretty much alone in your conclusions.

When looking at the Daily evidence, we’ll see that the trend is, unbelievably, upwards.

The chart clearly shows this to be true, regardless of the ‘feelings’ in the air to the contrary.

THE UPDATE:

Pretty ‘outrageous’ stuff for that time period, eh? Well, not from today’s point of view!

Let’s look at where we are relative to the 16,500 level when that post was published.

The naysayers and doomsayers kept up their relentless Bearish prognostications while the Market continued it’s rising pattern unaffected by all the words and newsprint.

Presently, the Market has advanced over 500 points higher since I wrote that post.

I hope your confirming analysis (using our proprietary techniques) allowed you to follow it’s movement and make a profit from the exercise.

Remembering, once again, that we’re heading into the Seasonal period for a top in the market, you’ll need those same techniques to catch the top turn when and if it comes in the next month.

My suggestion? Watch for some great, good news period when the Bearish pundits start to relax their outlook and dare to entertain a ‘Bull’ Market scenario.

Perhaps some political event that has positive repercussions. Watch the methods (Stairway, Excalibur or the methods from the Master Course) closely for a turn indicator to run counter to the surface ‘feelings’ of the public.

There’s just no way that the mass public will be allowed to benefit from being on the right side of this major market trend.  This isn’t meant to be a judgment call as to character, but, one about the suggestibility of the public to manufactured ‘news’. – George

A Well-Kept Secret

THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND

THE ‘STAIRWAY’ TRADING METHOD . . .

. . . “Because A Step in the Right Direction Beats a Mile in the Wrong One.” – G. R. Harrison

Introduction

The Stairway Trading Method is a unique method of analyzing the markets. Actually, it’s not so much a trading tool as a mind shift in Consciousness, Perspective and Awareness. It changes the way you’ll view markets and change the way you’ll react to them in the future.

If you’ve been searching for months or years to find a better, and more Human way of approaching the Markets; I Believe You’ll Find That This Is It!

Mankind’s technical advances, as reflected in the trading world, have become more and more removed from the Human Trader. It’s the Human Being that adds value to any equation.

This seems to have been forgotten as more and more complex algorithms have been applied to trading solutions.

We need to remind ourselves that market charts are the same today as they were a hundred years ago.

The same market formations are at work today as then, when Master Traders like William D. Gann and Jesse Livermore made fortunes for themselves without the aid of a computer or calculator.

The goal of Humanity should be to discover the Rules of the Universe and masterfully apply those rules with the goal of living in harmony with them. Does anyone feel that way by letting a software ‘bot’ trade for us? Do computer trading indicators make you feel more Human?

Not me, and, I suspect, not you either!

I went back to our Human roots and the way that we’re built to find the answers needed without sacrificing my humanity in the process. ‘The Stairway Trading Method’ is the result of this conscious quest to achieve TWO PRIMARY GOALS:

• READ MARKET TRENDS AND ADJUST TO THEM AUTOMATICALLY and
• ACCURATELY IMPLEMENT LOSS CONTROLS (money management) at the same time.

These two goals were achieved through the Stairway Trading Method.

I now present this amazing, Human-friendly trading assistant to those who wish to embrace an older, friendlier and more accurate approach to trading the markets.

If we step away from the anxiety of the markets and give our ego a rest, we can be content with simply being a part of the market trend instead of fighting it with our ideas of how the market ‘should’ behave.

Stairway identifies the real trend in play.

That enables you to be on the right side of events that will be unfolding instead of being caught off guard and put in a ‘reactive’ mode to market price moves.

Stairway adjusts your stop loss points according to market activity itself.

This means that, at times, when the market’s momentum shifts away from it’s main trend temporarily, you’ll be kept from advancing your stop prematurely.

Almost all other traders and investors will never even detect this subtle, but, important change.

The Stairway Trading Method will detect those changes, and, automatically allow you to adjust or not adjust your stops accordingly.

Easily, quietly and in a manner that matches the reality of the market conditions as they ARE, not as they were (as is the manner of market indicators).

This almost ‘magical’ action will prevent many ‘false stop losses’ from taking place along with the discouragement that would accompany them.

What Does That Leave Then?

Stairway Trading Method Stops, Reverses, and Trend shifts

To Review; It leaves you:

• Entering trades on the Correct side of the Trend and
• Following that Trend at the correct price distance with a market-calculated and adjusted Stop Loss.

CHANGE YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS, NOT JUST YOUR METHODS.

ALTER HOW YOU SEE THINGS AND CHANGE YOUR AWARENESS.

ALTERED AWARENESS EQUALS PROFIT OPPORTUNITY.

These two objectives with THE DISCIPLINE TO FOLLOW THEM will open up new vistas in trading and trading results.

TRADE CONSCIOUSLY – – – TRADE SUCCESSFULLY!

GBP/JPY Reset to Last Week’s Highs?

DEJA VU: GBP/JPY Has Reset Prices to Last Week’s Highs

We again revisit where we were last week with the GBP/JPY.

After successfully calling the break two Sundays back, prices dropped down by a good amount and quickly entered into a buying zone below 157.00.

From there the market has pumped back upwards right to where it came from the week before.

This is now a SELLING Price Zone because of both Time and Price.

I’d expect to see a break downwards in price either Sunday or Monday.

Track the short-term price movements with the technical tools we’ve provided in the courses (Excalibur, Stairway, the newly re-released ‘Exponential Trading Method’, ‘Time Spanner’, ‘Intra-day Forex Trading Secrets’ or one of the other premium techniques).

SPOT ON: GBP/JPY Predicted Drop

The price top which was expected on Friday did occur and the drop in prices predicted took play right out of the gate with Sunday’s trading session.

Sunday’s slide of over 100 pips (as of this posting) certainly qualified as a good short-term & high profit-potential move.

Here are the charts for the Gold & GBP/JPY trades posted just before this one.

This time, I’ve shown the important BUY and SELL price zones that are being targeted for these two markets on the short-term.

You’ll find the SELL Zone areas shown with a green horizontal bar.

The BUY Zone price areas are shown with a red horizontal bar.

The GBP/JPY is at the top end of a short rally and in the SELL green zone.

As for GOLD, it has recently pulled back in price and has touched it’s red BUY Zone bar indicating that it has a high likelihood of rebounding back upwards.

In both cases, we have looked at the longer-term trend to confirm trend.

Only after knowing this do we narrow our focus on the short-term trend and SELL against rallies for the down trending GBP/JPY and BUY the pullback in Gold prices as the larger trend for this market is UP.

GOLD: Preparing for the Next Upswing

 

GOLD TRADERS:

GOLD: Preparing for the Next Upswing

Click Chart to Enlarge

Gold has now given indications of strength for the Longer-Term Trend and, should continue it’s upwards movement in the coming week ahead.

It’s been a long, agonizing wait for the Gold Bulls, but, it appears that their time has come at last.

Don’t be confused by the sideways price movements of the last several weeks.

This can be thought of as a rest period for this market before launching upwards into new price territory.

This is normal behavior for commodities that are about to make significant price movements; the coiling of a spring is one analogy that we could use here to describe a highly probable event to come.

The last few days have positioned this market into a BUY Zone with today’s or Sunday’s prices probably being the lows from which higher prices will spring.

The GOLD Market can now justify buying on pullbacks.

This is not a fundamentals driven market as we’ve seen for some years now, so, we must work with the technical tools we have to best align our probabilities for success and to minimize our risks.

Price has weakened somewhat; enough to catch it’s breath, and, barring some new influx of selling (in a world desperate to buy Gold), prices should reassert themselves to the upside in the week ahead.

The price area from $1208-$1220 is a solid, lower-risk purchase area in anticipation for higher prices ahead.If prices drop below the $1208 area, then, a massive shift in trend to the downside will be implied. This is less likely now than before, however.

Readers should be aware that we called GOLD as going higher back in our January 28th article when it was still around $1100. Our analysis techniques detected the shift upwards much earlier though. Watch closely. – George
