America a Question

Tactical Overview
I don't talk
a lot. I just buy and sell. I do want to weigh in on the question
of whether this is 2008 all over again. That's a question that
seems to be on most people's minds. The public sold a lot of
stock in August, and the gold community is very nervous about
what might happen in October with gold stocks.
I don't have any concerns that this is 2008 all over again, and
I think any gold market crash is coming later on in 2012, rather
than now in October. There seem to be two clear schools of thought.
One school believes it is 2008 all over again, and the other
believes the lows are in for gold, and we are about to go much
higher. I don't really agree with either view.
My concern is always for what is facing me today. Sometimes the
price of a market will fall below the range I forecast, but that
doesn't happen too often, and it only opens up a new and better
range of play. I am not that sure that the lows for gold are
in, but I doubt there is much downside if they fail.
My family background is from India. It's not really in our nature
to buy gold when it rises, and that's something that is hard
for the Western investor to understand. Most Western investors
have to learn to buy gold when it falls against the dollar, whereas
the Indian mentality is to instinctively buy it then. The recent
price decline attracted more attention than is really necessary.
The price of gold fell and opened up a buying opportunity.
If you didn't buy gold at $1700 or lower, you should not find
yourself buying it at the price of $1900 or higher, or you will
get yourself in big trouble. Look closely at the blue buy ranges
I highlight on the following charts, and the red ones. Focus
on those colors, rather than on theories about whether it is
2008 again or gold is about to go much higher.
The question that India has for America at this time in the gold
market is, "what did you do in this correction?"

For 321Gold readers: Email me at testdrive@goldsproutprofits.com and I'll send you my micro gold
futures report and Bollinger bands report for gold and silver
futures. The standard COMEX gold futures contract is 100 ounces.
The mini contract is about 32 ounces. That is still fairly big
if you want to be able to hold a number of contracts, in most
cases. The recently-introduced micro contract is just 10 ounces,
and could be a game changer for the retail investor.
