| Can Gold And Silver Break Above Major Resistance? Posted: 24 Sep 2010 08:35 AM PDT It’s been my expectation that gold would manage to rally at least to $1300 before dropping into the now due daily cycle low. We are now ready to test that theory as gold has tagged $1300 this morning. The rest of the sector is also mashed right up against all time or bull market highs. I have my doubts that we will see all these resistance levels broken on the first try. We are also deep into the timing band for a daily cycle correction. This would be the most logical … [visit site to read more]

| Aircraft Crash Durable Goods Orders Posted: 24 Sep 2010 08:10 AM PDT New Orders for Durable Goods fell 1.3% in July. That was slightly better than the consensus expectations for a decline of 1.4%. The news is better than the headline number suggests. All of the weakness came from the extremely volatile transportation equipment side, and more specifically, from the non-defense aircraft component. That is mostly orders for big 777's and 747's from Boeing (NYSE:BA), which are very expensive items. It also includes orders for business jets from firms like Textron … [visit site to read more]

| Technical Outlook: Bank Of America, JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs Posted: 24 Sep 2010 08:09 AM PDT With financials lagging behind and dragging the overall markets lower, I figured it makes sense to have a look at the main financial stocks to try and get an idea of where they were headed. I have a hard time believing that the markets can go much higher without the financial stocks. I have commented on the charts itself. All the charts are pointing in just one direction. See for yourself. Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) JPMorgan (NYSE:JPM) Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) Goldman Sachs … [visit site to read more]

| Euro To Rise By A Whopping 1,250 Pips Against The US Dollar? Posted: 24 Sep 2010 08:03 AM PDT Hiyo FX peeps! Did I get your attention? Yes. I believe that its very likely that the EURUSD pair could gain by about 1,250 pips. Now that's a lot! As you can see from its daily chart, the fiber has recently broken out from a very nice cup and handle formation. At present, the pair is trading just above the neckline of the pattern. With the stochastics in the overbought territory, it could exchange in a range-bound fashion for awhile before moving north. Now, a move past the … [visit site to read more]

| Inverted Head-and-Shoulder Potential On NASDAQ Composite Posted: 24 Sep 2010 07:36 AM PDT Alert: For those who have been sleeping for the past several months, something exciting is also happening with the NASDAQ Composite Index and stocks in that market (mostly tech). Some will say “give him a horizontal trendline and everything will look like an inverted H+S to him”. In other words, I might be criticized for stretching the case but another 6% move will bring that index up to the “neckline” making for the tantalizing prospect of a breakthrough and, after some “buyers remorse” … [visit site to read more]
