FOREXCOM:XAUUSD   Gold Spot / U.S. Dollar
I will be a bit late to the party with this long idea but as I see we have too much gold short idea in Tradingview right now.
Will all these retail trades make money on the short side ?
I doubt.

If you short gold you have to be ready for a 100$ upward move in the following few days. The stock market is slowly topping out and liquidity - at least some of it - will move into the precious metal complex.
Silver will be a winner in this but I don't think gold will fall or stay in a range in the next 2 weeks. I see a big chance it's going to test the 2011 summer high.


Plan accordingly.
Comment:
Gold is underperforming silver just as I expected. The reason is the XAUXAG ratio:
It’s doung its job just any other asset.
Comment:
Gold just tagged the bottom of the bull flag rectangle as RSI got oversold and printed a nice rally today. We are going to break out of the rectangle and run to 1900.
Comment:
XAUXAG ratio lost the 200SMA . After a successful backtest today it’s heading lower. I still think silver will be stronger than gold at the end of this intermediate rally.
Comment:
XAUXAG drops again today.
Comment:
Gold is trying to break out.
Comment:
Breakout completed. Target 1900.
Comment:
Actually I see nothing between 1823 and 1900... so this might be a fast 2-3 days move
Comment:
We are getting close to the target price.
Comment:
I think we are going to test the all time highs this afternoon .
Comment:
Eveb if we break out I’m going to sell into the panic buying and stop run as this intermediate cycle is close to the top.
Comment:
Almost there.
Trade closed: target reached:
Comment:
New all time highs.
Comment:
We might have topped a bit ahead of 2000$.
Comment:
When all the goldbugs started to chase the price , everybody who didn’t buy at 1800 boght in the hope of breaking 2000 for an immediate run to 3000$ in the heat of the night smartmoney dumped their gold to these poor people.
