Gold Daily Chart and a Look at Silver.


As we watch the Nasdaq 100 to confirm any moves in the SP 500 for stocks, so we watch silver to confirm any moves in gold for the metals.

Gold pulled back to the top of the handle today.



Silver has been moving sideways, and it appears to be coiling for a move.

It *could be* a large H&S top, and it could just be a back and fill consolidation prior to a leg higher. The funny thing about these formations is that one does not really know which way they are going until they show their hand. The value of the formation is to know when they are moving, and how far they are likely to go.

Notice that this H&S looking formation on the right is part and parcel of a larger inverse H&S that had a breakout that failed, for now, as a result of a concentrated shorting action by a few bullion banks. The neckline is still there, and the primary bull trend is still alive. Therein lies the tension on the tape.
