2-week trial of GCRU $45 -- yes, sign me up!

Welcome to GCRU #133 on Oct 20, 2004. It was a perfect time for a skip-week. Gold used the fortnight to pop up its usual formula-$5 (420 to 425), then corrected to 415 closing basis (intraday 410), then, having found its footing, resumed the uptrend. Gold appears to be "preparing" for a move to its 435 April high.

Gold shares were marginally stronger than bullion. Last week's correction was triggered by a 10% fall in copper (& also by China worriers) which brought uncertainty into the commodity mkt in general. It was the 33,000th remin
der () that profits are meant to be taken on board when available. Some stks had bearish overbought upwedges (NRD, AAUK, TEK, NG) which needed cooling off. But never fear, the falling US$ is here. It broke recent lows, to touch an 8mo low, after conclusively breaking down from the June-Sept symmetrical triangle. Hard to see how gold shares could suffer any major shorterm weakness with the US$ in such a persistent downtrend. The euro is also flirting with high ground. Other currencies are likewise gradually looking better vs US$. Many prior high flyer golds are cooling off, a la Glamis, Meridian & Teck, but their action so far looks like healthy consolidation rather than approaching weakness. Novagold is still overextended & subject to pullback action of a sort (click). Newmont is maintaining a steadfast uptrend with scope for downside consolidation before nearing its May uptrend. (click). Good to see blue-chip momentum holding. Ditto Agnico.

Most energy shares have held well, but take profits now&then & maintain fairly close stops. The energy index chart shows a healthy rise & is now confronting resistance from the top boundary of its uptrend channel, so consolidation/pullback is not unlikely. Repeat this mantra each morning: "I am not in markets to make profits. (pause) I am in mkts to take profits." Paper profits are will o' the wisp. Banked profits are real -- & good for the morale.
Tip: watch for 1-day reversals in both stks & indexes. They are often amazingly helpful for predicting or starting reversals, usually shorterm but not always. No tool always works but when a 1-day reversal is backed with another, it's usually powerful.

GCRU has members in 42 countries. But then, gold is the most international of investments! I appreciate you spreading the word. Strategy today: if U are under-invested, place some buy orders just under the mkt in shares we comment favourably on. And in some cases at breakout prices. The mkt smells like it's preparing to move moderately higher, probably in its usual $5 steps, so position yourself accordingly. And let the mkt pay U for your time via the profits U grab.

Good luck from your currently Swiss-visiting alchemist gold guru,

Uncle Harry

PS: Gold is opening little changed in Asia & Europe today. Which is good as that means Tuesday's gains are holding. The yen broke out upside Tues vs US$. Oz$ in minisymmetrical triangle with target of 74 vs US$.US$ made new low at the Tues close. NY gold futures have made a mini-symmetrical triangle over last few days with a happy target of 436-437, the old high, a great place to take profits as it will be a resistance level. If oil breaks 52, could dip to 47.50. Main oil trend will be up for years, but along the way are many big bumps in the road. Possible H&S top in S&P. Sell at 1129. Gold outlook increasingly positive. Bye. Uncle
