Gold Cycle Running Out of Steam

I predicted that gold would rally last week up to the $1,155 area, and was also equally unsurprised when it was rejected the first time by that declining (see green trend-line on chart) resistance line. Those are standard or obvious Cycle pivot points, but how it continued lower yesterday to fall well below the 10 day moving average was not a “typical” development if you’re a supporter of the bull case in gold.

Steps from a Deep October Market Selloff

In this particular case, I have maintained for a number of weeks that the markets were in the earlier stages of the Investor Cycle, meaning that the Aug 24th lows would eventually be exceeded. That would involve a pattern where the markets recovered back towards the prior breakdown point near 2,044, and then continue lower. Two days of sharp declines are not confirmation, but that was an ugly end to the week and the odds of that expected pattern playing out, i.e. a continuation lower, have greatly increased.
