Gold Signals a Top

Topping and bottoming out are processes that use to degenerate in enervating and severely persisting grave battles – the bulls fight hard against the bears. Both sides need to employ heavy material to hold and re-conquer their respecting positions. Minimal gains of ground i.e. defending supports and taking or re-conquering resistance lines use to claim a lot of money and energy on both sides.

Some time may pass until the respective forces in the bull and the bear camps wane inclining the scale to the winner, i.e. to the new trend. Still there is no unambiguous winner to be seen in the battle for the possible or likely next intermediate gold high, but the pendulum is bending to the contrary now.

Gold could have topped on Thursday and could start to roll over now:

Can we say: that was it? I think we can. The bulls seem to have shot their bolts – for the moment…

Let’s consider the most important and strongest bear bastion in the monthly gold chart above – the blue elliptical arc resistance which represents combined monthly and yearly resistance. We relate the strongest monthly upswing according price and time beginning at # 1 // December 2015 Bear Market Low with the major highs produced since then recognizing that the resistance of the elliptical Blue Arc above EXACTLY nails the:

Final high of entire 2016. At dark-red 1, or end of initial up impulse out of 2015 Bear Market low precisely after a 8 Fib number months lasting impulse.

The immediately afterwards produced small lower monthly high at dark-red 2 that triggered a 5 months Fib number correction.

Final high of 2017. See dark-red 3. 2017 Top has arrived at candle No. 22 of impulse out of # 1 // Dec 2015 Bear Market Low. 22 - 1 is important 21 Fib number.

One of the most important month highs of 2018. Marked by the dark-red 4 (& dark-red arrow). For entire 2018 we count 4 negative tests of elliptical Blue Arc resistance at the most important month highs of that year.

Conclusion: This bent Blue Arc above equals to the most strongest existing resistance for gold. It is confirmed resistance on:

A) Monthly closing base, B) resistance on year high base, C) resistance on month high base. And last but not least the D) current most strongest resistance of the running DECADE. It is nicely confirmed and sharp defined E) +2.5-years lasting MAJOR resistance for gold.

Through these 4 touching points, the stretch of the Blue Arc can be automatically updated for the future. Pretty sensible, I mean, because it`s inter alia defined by 2 final tops on yearly base, and above all mathematically correct in terms of time and price.

And you will have already recognized it, if you are attentive:

Highlighted by the dark-red 5 current 2019 High once again tested MAJOR resistance at 1331.10$.

Also - young - February candle seems to respond to the elliptical Blue Arc rail, showing a small lower month high compared to January 2019 High exactly at slightly declining MAJOR resistance from below at dark-red 6.

Gold is at it`s MAJOR resistance magnet that can be expressed by elliptical Blue Arc above, additionally at the well-know and well-recognized 1322$-1320$ yearly GUNNER24 Resistance Horizontal. Furthermore, it is quite overbought.

==> Thats why we have to prepare for a gold correction cycle over the next 6 to 12 weeks that in extreme cases needs another test of above named "Important Angle Bull Support" which runs at around 1222$ for March to April candle, there and then forming heavy support magnet together with well-known and well-recognized yearly GUNNER24 Support Horizontal.

The probability that the gold in the expected 6 to 12 week correction cycle will again test back the 1222$ before the next big upside leg starts which then - USUALLY...! - should push through MAJOR elliptical Blue Arc resistance in course of summer 2018 we have to set to about 20%-25%!

Also interesting is this now arisen probability:

We recognize an about 30% probability that gold just now, either at January, or February 2019 highs, and usually very close to the above measured elliptical Blue Arc resistance prints it`s FINAL HIGH for the entire 2019.

However, should succeed with the February to the March closing a liberation. And should gold be able to deliver just 1 monthly close above the elliptical Blue Arc resistance AND 1333$ the at 2018 Low started monthly uptrend becomes a breakout move which then should test the 1st double arc near 1422$-1455$ within just 6 month candles.

But as I written above, we should rather prepare for the scenario with the highest probability now and that is a correction lasting at least 6 weeks.

Exactly 2 weeks ago, I recently forecasted this gold trend. Then trading at 1281$ it became obvious that the gold uptrend necessarily has to test and work off its 1322$-1320$ yearly upwards magnet within a short time. Or also, as it already was expressed on January 20, the final and successful work off of the 3rd double arc uptarget within currently only valid weekly up setup, that is a 3 Candle up starting at # 1 // 2018 Low.
