Gold Daily and Silver Weekly Charts



"When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before."

Jacob Riis

Gold had another up day with stocks, as it was 'risk on' with renewed hopes for fresh infusions of liquidity as we saw from the Bank of England.

I tended to view this action as more 'technical' than fundamental.

I don't like the headline correlation between stocks and the metals like gold and silver which would normally function as a safe haven in a time of increased risk.

Notice the new lines of broad support and resistance levels on the gold chart. We have not yet broken to the upside, so caution is advised.
