A New Cycle Approaches – Gold

Gold is down another $25 this morning, while Silver is taking the heaviest losses of the Cycle.  As Silver led the Cycle and has for the most part avoided any significant decline, this must now be the final decline into the 2nd DCL.  Traders should focus on the opportunity at hand and ignore the severity of the decline. The Financial Tap members know that this remains a normal and expected decline; they’ve been following the last few Cycles play out to expectations.  In the past weekend premium member report I wrote:

“Until the current Daily Cycle completes, the immediate trend remains to the downside.  We are 3-5 sessions from a low in the current 2nd Daily Cycle. This event is within our framework of expectations; Daily Cycles have ended every 24-28 days for many decades. When the next Daily Cycle (the 3rd) gets underway, I believe that the bear case for Gold will diminish considerably, and we’ll see a rush into the metals that will drive price significantly higher. “

Don’t Fight the Trend

When it comes to the Daily Cycle, especially 1st Daily Cycles from a series of up trending Investor Cycles, there is only so much downside one should expect.  That’s essentially what we have in the equity markets, a long history (4 years) of 1st Daily Cycles finding the necessary bid to power out of Cycle Lows. 

In this particular case, there is now little doubt that a new Cycle is underway.  The Cycle extended out to 46 trading days and was technically a much deeper correction than one would expect.  The oscillators have turned higher, the MACD should cross within 3-5 sessions, and the S&P is back above its 10dma.  A little more strength and the trend-line will be broken too.
