Gold Poised for Spike to ~2445/GCM; April 12/15th Peak Likely. Silver Concurs.
04-11-24 – Gold & Silver have surged to primary upside targets in line with overriding wave timing targets, particularly in Gold. For the past 6+ weeks, Gold had been projected to surge from ~2040 to at least ~2320/GCM in fulfillment of its mid-February buy signal.
That was/is the minimum upside target for this 1 – 2 month advance. In late-March, Gold showed it would likely exceed that initial target and reach 2333 – 2357/GCM. Gold has reached that combination of targets (and could spike up to its secondary target at 2430 – 2445/GCM) as Silver surged to its own combination of targets at 28.09 – 28.25/SIK (range-trading target, weekly LHR, monthly HHR). (**A longer-term range target, on multiple levels, is at 30.50 – 31.25/SI.)
All of this action, including Gold’s test of its weekly LHR last week, portend a 1 – 2 month peak… That dovetails with longer-term analysis, reiterated in mid-March.
A high on April 12 – 18th would fulfill a ~1-month/~30-degree low (Nov 13 – 18, ’23) – low (Dec 13 – 18, ’23) – low (Jan 13 – 18, ’24) – low (Feb 13 – 18, ’24) – low (March 13 – 18, ’24) – (high; April 13 – 18, ’24) Cycle Progression.
However, price action needs to signal when an intermediate peak is taking hold. Gold has initially fulfilled a ~19-wk low (March ’23) – high (July 17-21 ’23) – high (Nov 27 – Dec 1 ’23) – (high; April 8 – 15 (–19), ’24) Cycle Progression but competing cycles and wave objectives could still spur higher highs in April.
1 – 3 month & 3 – 6 month traders and investors could have entered long positions in Gold & Silver at averages of 2025/GCJ (2045/GCM) & 23.00/SIK and be holding 1/2 of these positions w/avg. open gains of about $34,000/contract & $26,000/contract, respectively. Move risk/exit levels to daily closes below 2335/GCM & 27.50/SIK
The other 1/2 could have been exited last week (at the published levels) – with avg. gains of about $27,000/contract (GC) and $22,000/contract (SI). TRADING INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL RISK!
The XAU & HUI have surged in line with their monthly 21 MACs & 21 MARCs. The action of the past 7 weeks mimicked the weeks between mid-February and mid-April 2023, when the XAU embarked on a ~5 & ~7-week surge.
In both cases, the XAU suffered a final sharp sell-off for ~2 weeks, bounced, then retested that low ~2 weeks later. In 2023, that led to an overall advance of ~35.00/XAU points over a ~5-week period.
2024 was projected to see something similar… but potentially more powerful…
On a broader basis, the February ’24 low projected a higher-magnitude advance to at least 157.00/XAU, where the current rally would match the magnitude of the late-2022/early-2023 rally. That could be seen in the coming months… possibly weeks.
1 – 3 month traders & investors could have entered long positions in related instruments (ETFs, stocks, etc.) when the XAU was at 102.60 – 106.00 in late-February and exited 1/3 of those positions when 134.00/XAU was hit last week. Another 1/3 cold have been exited when 138.00/XAU was hit. Move sell stops to exit the remaining 1/3 if/when a daily close below 130.40/XAU. FUTURES TRADING INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL RISK!
Gold & Silver are fulfilling their mid-February buy signals – projecting acceleration higher into April 12, 2024. A myriad of cycles peak between April 12th & April 19th and should time an initial, 2 – 4 week high…
Gold & Silver Projecting Accelerated Surges into April 2024; Middle East Cycles Collide!
Gold is likely to reach 2430 – 2445/GCM and likely peak near those objectives. (See latest publications for specifics.) A new surge will likely be seen in May/June 2024 with Silver already setting up for a volatile and potentially explosive period.
The action since late-2022 is powerfully validating the onset of a new 40-Year Cycle of Currency War in which Gold & Silver possess unique potential for 2024! Gold is acting as the ‘Canary in the Coal Mine’ and has fulfilled projections to break out to the upside in March 2024!
