Gold and Silver Daily Chart
Gold
Silver
As T. E. Lawrence said after the massacre at Tafas in 1918, 'No Prisoners.'
This is what happens when the stranglehold of manipulation is relaxed on a market with tight supply and steady demand.
Target is 21.80, but watch out for pullbacks especially if there is a large selloff in stocks as we suspect there will be in the latter part of September. A pullback to 19.50 to retest that big resistance would not invalidate the chart formation.

Gold, Silver, Miners, and Big Daddy
Gold Daily
Gold is on the verge of breaking out of the handle of the cup and handle formation. A pullback and consolidation of the recent gains would not be unusual. However it will be most interesting if US stocks correct, and there is a flight to safety in gold. Let's see what happens.
Mining Sector (HUI)
The miners have not yet confirmed the break out in silver. This may be because of the thinness and uncertainty accompanying the rally in US equities, despite the impressive levels reached thus far.
Silver Weekly
Silver is a juggernaut having broken out of its big wedge, targeting 22. If the stock market corrects we should see a pullback in silver, but it may be short lived.
I cannot help but notice that the commodities in general have been rallying since the big banks started closing their proprietary trading desks.
US Ten and Thirty Year Treasuries
Since we said they looked toppy, the bonds have been in a swoon.
This will reverse if the stock market rally abates. Even with the low volumes they are shoving a lot of portfolio allocation around the plate, looking to hand off the hot potato in stocks to mom and pop, at the top.
