SP 500 Sept Futures
It will be interesting to see if they can keep taking this higher. The McClellan Osciallator is at a extreme reading. But volumes remain light, and while heavy selling is absent, prices on the margins can be lifted higher, in a manner similar to a ponzi scheme. But if selling appears again, particularly if it is driven by exogenous events, prices can therefore fall rather quickly, because of the lack of fundamental underpinnings for the price supported by investors with conviction, rather than the cheap tricks of convicted trading companies.
Gold Daily Chart
It's never easy. This will likely not be over until 'roll week' is finished on Thursday. This is a blatant fraud in my opinion, similar to the roll week frauds perpetrated on holders of ETF's. It is done with at least the passive approval of many traders, exchanges, the media, and investment companies, similar to the manner in which they enabled the mortgage backed securities frauds. The attitude is that investors are not human beings but 'dumb money' deserving of no consideration or protection, even if it is one's job to protect them from control frauds. 
Gold Weekly
Important for maintaining perspective. Please notice the periodic severe corrections to trend. In eash case sentiment becomes rather pessimistic, and people tend to say silly, illogical and blatantly incorrect things. When the market turns up again they slink away, waiting for the next opportunity to crawl out of their deep wells of subjectivity. If the trend is decisively broken then we will adjust our trading to accommodate that change.
