In the short run, trend support for gold is suggested at 1650, 1635 and 1600. But that’s small comfort. Both the 13 week cycle projection and the 9-12 month cycle projection point significantly lower. Gold threatens a breakdown from major long term support that would imply even lower prices than current intermediate term cycle projections.

Mining Picks- As a result of the pullback, and my placement of tight trailing stops, all open picks hit their stops and were closed off the tracking list. The result was an average gain of 12.9% on an average holding period of 3½ weeks. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

I had a bias of expecting to see a few short term buys on visual review of the screens. But when I ran the screens, there were just 2 charts with repeat buy signals and 9 with repeat sell signals. This is better than last week when there were 3 buys and 21 sells, but it’s still not fertile picking grounds for buy side trades. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

These two negative weeks followed a preponderance of buy signals for the prior 4 weeks. Therefore, for now, I consider this a normal corrective phase. However, Thursday alone had 2 buys and 3 sells, not a ringing endorsement of a short term bullish outlook. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Upon visual review, the two buys did not look at all bullish, so we’ll be sitting out this week with no picks. We wait. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

There’s not enough evidence for the umpires to overturn last week’s call on the field, but neither was there enough to confirm. Therefore the call stands.

Until it doesn’t. Meanwhile, gold is making progress toward completing a 9-12 month cycle low. There’s still risk of a pullback toward a test of the lows over the next xxxx xxxxx  xxxxx or so. On the other hand clearing xxxx should get things rolling toward xxxx.

Over the past week the mining stock sector generated 23 charts with repeat buy signals and still 18 with repeat sell signals. The mining stocks lagged the sharp turn in the metal. But there has been a preponderance of buy signals for the past 3 weeks, so some reduction in buy signals and increase in sell signals is to be expected. The fact that there’s still a preponderance of buy signals is a positive sign. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Upon visual review, I selected just one chart to add to the list. xxx. I’m not enamored with the idea of buying stocks that are still in downtrends, even if there are hints of reversal. For now, I’m only comfortable with the level of exposure we already have on this list. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Gold’s short term cycles have entered up phases but they haven’t shown anything so far and aren’t likely to. The longer swing cycles have yet to indicate that they’ve bottomed, and they still have lower projections. There’s still risk that they’ll be reached over the next month or two.

Over the past week the mining sector generated 19 charts with a second or third buy signal on Monday, and no multiple sell signals. Sounds good, right? Non-subscribers, click here for access.

This market reminds me of the old Perry Como song. “Catch a falling knife and put it in your pocket. Never let it stab your leg.” Bottom picking for counter trend rallies in bear markets is not my favorite pastime. But given that any bottom could lead to a big rally, I will put one big toe in the water, and steel myself for its amputation. So, from my bottom picking perspective, I’ll go with XXX, tracking it as of the opening price on Tuesday. And, what the hell, XXX has room to pop, with nice positive divergences in the indicators, so I’ll add that as well. Non-subscribers, click here for access.
