It's all about the top 5-7 stocks! Armstrong's Blue Chip forecast?!

 

[Lancers32]

Savage.

 

[Lancers32]

Some gold affirmation... I'm OK, you're OK... well actually I'm OK and you're fucked...

When you're broke but the market structure isn't. Yet.

 

[Lancers32]

CRB Stewart Thompson. Bitcoin support levels. Seems as if everyone is waiting to buy 52-53K a lower level would hurt. Two charts.

Despite gold negating its breakout, it seems that overall investor sentiment is that the sector is still bullish. Mining shares are still making higher highs and higher lows, and are also staying above their 50DMA, both important to still be considered in a bullish position. RSI still above 40 as well.
So, things aren't looking pretty, but it's not a deathblow to the sector yet.

It's like a corpse farting, and everybody thinking it's still alive...

Thinly traded for the most part and a short week. I wouldn't make too much out of anything. I see Grandich posted that he bought a $hitload of AZMCF so I wouldn't take the volume as a clue it will break out.

 

[Zed]

Gold... well that flipped quickly.

 

[Zed]

It's like a corpse farting, and everybody thinking it's still alive...

It's been dead for years... I don't think it can get that much deader...

 

[Zed]

Yeah... I think the options forecast project is a fail... after a good start it's been a big miss all round and I can't see a way of fixing it.

 

[Zed]

AUD Gold looking OK... could be a breakout month.

The SEC Crackdown on DeFi is Imminent

The SEC cracks its knuckles and sets about the task of punching people in the face.

This is just a wild ass guess, but maybe the preponderance of shorts are commercial/banker while the majority of specs are long. If so, and the numbers are coming in low, maybe your project is a proxy estimate of how hard the metals are being held back? 2c...

AXU probably has the sexiest chart of all the miners...
Beautiful textbook head-and-shoulders bottom. Back to $3 soon?

Great perspective. Sometimes I get narrow minded and forget there's more than just the US dollar. Looks much better in the Aussie dollar.

I've been watching Rick Rule interviews for many years now, even the early interviews from the mid-2000's. I have never seen Rick so strongly opinionated and energetic about buying something as he is silver miners right now.

Often AUD Gold is a good indication of the true state of the market.

 

[jelly]

US dollar has it's rocket boosters on.
Anyone know why it's going ballistic? People jumping into cash?
Regardless, like Zed hinted at, likely why the gold chart in USD looks worse than reality.

Yep.

That's why 'charting' is a fools errand IMO.

If it helps you that's great, but for me... I'm sitting on the sidelines.

Not only is it a farting corpse, it's like vultures picking over the bones while trying to figure out when the body will rise from the dead.

And yet it’s tickling everybody’s fancy at the moment. A rush into a dead dollar would be Quite the catalyst for a bubble pop.

AG has so far avoided closing below my stop loss. Surprisingly.

Yep, mega caps. I must have missed Armstrong's blue chip forecast? Also some of the hyped pandemic trades are unwinding. Stocks like Peloton, Zoom, Teladoc, etc.

Sitting just above max pain.

My problem with cryptos.

A plot of digital land was just sold in the metaverse for $2.43 million — more than most homes in NYC and San Francisco cost

Metaverse Group, a subsidiary of Tokens.com, completed the purchase for a patch of digital land for 618,000 mana, or about $2.43 million at the time.

In a soon to be published article on Sprott David Brady warns of the risk of a Holiday raid by the banks in the metals and miners. Called the bottom the other day.

When has it not?

 

[Jodster]

When has it not?

So true. I mean why would we even be on a site called “Goldismoney2”?
There’s a lot of witty, intelligent or unconventional people who call this place home.
The fact we can have bulls and bears, sharing their experiences, their wins and losses is pretty impressive on it’s own.
The added insight is just a bonus.

Gold up, stocks down pretty big pre market on news of the new variant out of South Africa.

 

[Lancers32]

BTC under 54K presently. Fear Greed on the bearish side of neutral.

 

[Lancers32]

Market down big Dow down 800? Well yeah if the Dow was sitting in 4 figures not 5. This will not be the last variant anyone not made with a carrot saw all of this coming. Now the fun begins.

 

[Lancers32]

 

[Lancers32]

Risk off Gold up Silver down. The guy with the beard was right.

 

[BigJim#1-8]

Dow -914 as of this post. Red Friday.

 

[Jodster]

Getting my head smashed in on the commodities market. WTF is going on?

I know Black Friday had huge discounts, but I didn’t realize I was the seller...

US Major markets close at 1pm today.
