Welcome to GCRU #128 on Sept 8. Nothing
very bad is happening but also nothing very good, a stagnant
pool. It's the fault of the US$ of course, threatening to break
up from a symmetrical triangle dating from mid-July. A rise to
90.50 (basis Dec futures) in $-Index & above would
be black cloud for gold. A fall to 87.70 would be bright yellow
cloud for gold. So watch those numbers daily.
Under these circumstances I can't advise buying dips this time
as a $-rise would send many golds to the bottom of their
trading ranges & we'd need to see if they hold. Safest strategy
is to buy on 1 day closes over nearby peaks - which would happen
if the $ drops.
Meantime, the world is holding its breath. The euro typifies
the action, also poised in a symmetrical triangle, but also burdened
by a H&S top pattern which is scary -- & troublesome
for gold if it breaks under the 120 neckline. Gold is still in
the trading range we outlined long ago, aprox 380-425. But individual
gold stks are still doing their own thing, as happens in all
trading ranges. Note the bullish wedges & flags to spot the
movers.
While we wait for gold to break & the $ to drop, we have
the energy stocks to keep our cash registers ringing bells. Thank
goodness, we diversified. And they are outperforming crude oil.
Yesterday, with oil down sharply, most energy stks were mixed,
& half rose! See below for new recommendations.
GCRU BREAKING NEWS: Buy & Hold clearly
doesn't pay off. Yet daily trading or even daily monitoring is
not easy for everyone. So, how about invest-&-exit via trends?
Yes - for the non-daily trader (short or medium term) - I've
coined a word for this approach of Investing with Trends: Trendvestors
(T/Vs). It's the middle ground between buy/hold & daily/trades.
So, GCRU is going to offer 1-2 pages of each issue of
GCRU for the Trendvestors. The recom on this/these pages
will be a blessing for those who simply can't find
the time to trade or even monitor every day. For some, a weekly
monitoring via GCRU may be enough. T/Vs can't make as
much profit as daily traders, but far more than the buy&hold
crowd. And it may be the only answer for those with busy schedules
or learner-drivers. Some will probably play both sides
of the street, some daily-acting, some trend-acting. And both
groups benefit from looking at the GCRU charts, especially
the US$ (a compass) plus bullion, the A/D & SGI. We'll launch
this new Trendvesting either next wk or the following
week, after we test it & get the bugs out. The new T/V section
will be greatly simplified, extremely easy to follow, yet still
offer learner-drivers the opportunity to compare those guidelines
with those to traders & study the individual gold charts.
It's win-win-win for U. More work-work-work for us, but the need
seems apparent.
In addition to the energy stks I've recom here for many wks,
all of which are acting well, I found some new ones. Have a look
at these: Denbury Res. (DNR); Westmoreland Coal
(WLB); True Energy (TUI-T); Petrel Res.(LSE) (London);
Centurion Energy (LSE); Transocean Inc (RIG) &
Noble Corp (NE). Gamblers buy toehold longs at mkt; others
buy on pullbacks to support. I haven't space & time to fine-tune
the exact entry&stop prices but IMO they are medium term
buys with small downside risk. U can find the charts on Bigcharts.com
& determine your own entry & stop prices. The point is:
energy & gold are the only clear bull mkts today. U should
have feet in both pools. If the $ breaks upside, gold will drop
but energy stks will rise faster than present pace, IMO. So,
diversification should pay now, as it always has.
Anglo American (Nasdaq: AAUK) daily chart; US$:
Buy recom: GCRU's bot at 22.25; stop:
20.75. If out, wait for strength after dip that holds
on/above 21.40-22.00 support. Or, buy bit on 1-dc over 23.30;
stop: 21.40. Profit/sell targets: 24.95 &/or 26.00.
Basis weekly chart: neutral. Comment: sym triangle

Iamgold Int'l African (Toronto: IMG;
Amex: IAG) daily chart (L/O/C); CAD$:
Trade recom: GCRU's bot bit at 9.15. If

8.60 support. Or, buy 1-dc over 10.00; stop: 8.50. Profit/sell
targets: 9.85 (if buy low) 10.45 &/or 11.95. Basis
weekly chart: neutral/bullish. Comment: Spinner neutral.
Poss reverse H&S base likely to offer low risk buy on pullback.
Good R/S.
Whew, lots of input, eh? God speed.
