Gold Weekly Technical Outlook
ONG Focus - Technical Written by Oil N' Gold
Comex Gold (GC)
Gold's fall from 1249.7 extends further to as low as 1166 last week but lost downside moment as it hit 1170.7 cluster support (61.8% retracement of 1124.3 to 1249.7 at 1172.2). Initial bias is neutral this week and some sideway trading should be seen around 1170.7 first. On the upside, break of 1206.6 minor resistance will suggest that pull back from 1249.7 has completed and flip intraday bias back to the upside for retesting this high. However, note that firm break of 1170.7 will argue that whole rise from 1044.5 is completed and will turn outlook bearish for 1124.3 support next.In the bigger picture, while the fall from 1249.7 is deep, gold is still holding on to 1170.7 cluster support as well as 55 days EMA (now at 1163). Hence there is no change in the bullish view yet and the long term up trend is still in favor to continue after completing the current pull back. Break of 1249.7 will target 100% projection of 931.3 to 1227.5 from 1044.5 at 1340 next. However, note that sustained trading below 55 EMA will opens up a few bearish possibilities. The least bearish case is that fall from 1249.7 is the third leg of the three wave consolidation from 1227.5 and would target a retest on 1044.5 support next. In the long term picture, rise from 681 is treated as resumption of the long term up trend from 1999 low of 253 after interim consolidation from 1033.9 has completed in form of an expanding triangle. Next long term target is 100% projection of 253 to 1033.9 from 681 at 1462 level. We'll hold on to the bullish view as long as 1044.5 key support holds.
Crude Oil Weekly Technical Outlook
Nymex Crude Oil (CL)
Crude oil dived to as low as 64.24 last week but formed a short term bottom there and turned sideway. Further consolidations would be seen initially this week and stronger recovery might be seen to 38.2% retracement of 87.15 to 64.24 at 72.99. However, upside should be limited by 61.8% retracement at 78.39 and bring fall resumption. Below 64.24 will target 60 psychological level next, which is close to 50% retracement of 33.2 to 87.15 at 60.18. In the bigger picture, the break of 68.59/69.50 support zone affirms our view that whole medium term rebound from 33.2 has completed at 87.15 already, just ahead of 50% retracement of 147.27 to 33.2 at 90.24. Further decline should be seen to 50% retracement of 33.2 to 87.15 at 60.18 at least. Also, as rebound from 33.2 is viewed as as a correction to the whole correction that started at 2008 at 147.27, we'd anticipate a break of 33.2 low in the longer term. On the upside, break of resistance at 78 level is needed to be indicate that fall from 87.15 is completed. Otherwise, we'll stay bearish. In the long term picture, current development suggests that rebound from 33.2 is finished at 87.15, inside 76.77/90.24 fibo resistance zone as expected. Our view is that fall fro 87.15 would develop into the third falling leg of the whole correction from 147.27 and hence, we'd anticipate an eventual break of 33.2 low in the long term as such correction extends.
