  2. welcome!

    please also note my calls are for very short swing trading only.

    anyway, intraday and short term swings are big enough to take profit or loss.

    like today, it is big enough to take us out of market with a huge loss within a few hours if we are in wrong side of the market.

    good luck

  4. it is pretty strange today that while everyone was expecting gold to move higher and 600 barrier was only an inch away, gold fell more than 1% sharply in a few hours.

    this is what you might call it manipulation.

  5. there is a lot of resting stuff around the 600 level and its done a lot in past few sessions.
    only real thing seen for the sell off today is the dip in oil and that not really dont a lot today.
    Good CB buying was evident when we rallied up to 590 despite oil posting lows at 57.24. Those buyers were not about today.

    Recovering well as I type though.
