my first GOLD trade

Discussion in 'Commodity Futures' started by marketsurfer, Jan 27, 2004.

  1. gold appears to be setting up for a continued downwave. i will be shorting the gold futures when the line @ 4024 is broken.

    this is my first metal trade. see attached chart action for details.

    best,

    marketsurfer,

    Is this a daytrade or position hold?
    Is your objective on the downside 390?

    Looks Good!

    nkhoi,


    Nice Chart.

    Is there usually such a nice correlation between the stocks and futures. The XAU definitely gave a much earlier and cleaner signal to trade then did the futures

    Lower risk entry at 425-430 risking to the the high 432?

    Thanks for that bit of info.


    Best Regards,

  10. Those wanting to short gold might want to wait until 415 stops are taken out (based on Apr contract) before deciding.
