The trend is still valid, we have declined 7.6% from the high of 194.35 with room to fall within the support trendline and 61.8% fibonacci at 178.25.
The play is to buy the lower trendline/golden fib(178.25), or the 50% fib (current price range= 181.33) in increments, and not add if that range collapses until next support level of 168.29. beyond 168.29 and this doesnt fit my definition of a bullish trend within a 3 month window, with price drop risk reaching 147.59.
Dip buying reward range contracted from 24% in early june to +15% for buying the lower trendline touch in mid July, and +6.5% for buying the 61.8% fib for August 12th-16th high. Buying the lowest technical boundary with is the safest way to minimize risk in a mature rally where gold double topped within the same range as previous cycle.
On the fundamental end, I expect the Fed to get extremely creative if there is any kind of intense volatility and liquidity shock again this year, potentially resorting to stock ETF purchases. If economy surprises to the upside, I expect the Fed to remain hands-off and maintain the current measures and rates, leaving earnings as the key driver for equity market upside.
