Bullion in Limbo

Although gold and silver were both trading higher, the rallies were not strong enough to carry to the very bullish targets I’d given in that day’s touts. We therefore had a chance to analyze the two vehicles “in limbo,” as it were, and to attempt a March Silver trade in real time. The trade was stopped out, but it provided a useful learning experience nonetheless, since it was initiated not via a “camouflage” signal, but on a breakout buy-stop two ticks above a midpoint Hidden Pivot resistance. We also considered reasons why a strong rally in the E-Mini S&P that morning was sufficient to imply the stock market will remain strong into 2011.
