The U.S. Dollar broke down from its Rising Bearish Wedge pattern, which raises the probability that the A-B-C wave (2) upward correction is over. Confirmation that wave (3) down has begun would come from a decisive drop below the bottom boundary of the Wedge, below 88. The first downside target would be the point where the Rising Wedge began, around 81.5. That could be an orderly stopping point for the first leg of (3) down, Intermediate degree 1. Eventually, wave (3) should take the Dollar at least into the 60s. That implies a Dollar devaluation event of some sort. Or, a lot less buying from foreign Central Banks, especially now that China is pegging the Yuan to a basket of currencies, not just the U.S. Dollar. Momentum is down as the MACD drops from a level where the prior two tops occurred. The RSI is neutral.
The above chart shows the pattern for Gold. Gold has reached the upper boundary of the Symmetrical Triangle pattern. It would be natural for resistance to hit here, but once Gold breaks above that boundary - and the Symmetrical Triangle pattern suggests it will - Gold is clear to rally into the high 400s. The upper boundary of its long-term trend channel is above 500. Once Minor and Intermediate waves five of primary (1) complete, an A-B-C correction lower is probable. How low that correction takes Gold will depend upon how high it rallies over the next several weeks and months. If it were to correct now, a 38.2 percent retrace would target 375ish.
The next chart shows Silver, which was down this week, however the Elliott Wave count as labeled still suggests an upward thrust is near. As long as Minor degree wave 2 down of the five-wave impulse we expect for wave 5 of (1) up does not drop below the bottom of e, the above count remains valid. There is also a Symmetrical Triangle pattern that is a continuation pattern of the prior trend. A decline decisively below 6.90 would cause this pattern, and the Elliott Wave count, to fall apart.
It is very rare for a Symmetrical Triangle pattern to fail. It is a continuation pattern that suggests the direction of prices before the pattern will be the same as after - in this case up. Should Silver drop decisively below its moving average lines and the bottom boundary of the Triangle pattern, we will turn Bearish, and consider wave (2) down's correction is underway.
We have developed buy/sell signals with remarkable correlation to stock market price movements, including the HUI Amex Gold Bugs Index. Serious Traders, Investors, Advisors and Market Students should find these buy/sell signals invaluable.
To give you a chance to properly evaluate these phenomenal buy/sell signals, we are offering you a Free 30 Day Trial Subscription to www.technicalindicatorindex.com. To receive this trial subscription, simply click on our website link and email us your interest and we will set you up.
What are these unique signals and why do they work? We have two independent indicators for each of three major equity market indices: The large cap DJIA/S&P 500, the NASDAQ 100 (which mirrors the QQQQs), and the HUI Amex Gold Bugs stocks.
The first indicator is a Stochastic that measures price and breadth momentum. When a Fast measure of this Stochastic crosses above a Slow measure of same, we get a momentum "buy" signal. When the Fast crosses decisively below the Slow, we get a "sell" signal.
The second indicator is a confirming Purchasing Power Indicator™. This proprietary indicator measures the "power" behind a stock market move. It considers price, but also other factors that are building blocks of supply and demand. This is an amazing tool that generates "buy" signals when the power behind a move is so strong as to suggest that the probability of a multi-week or significant multiday rally is very high. It generates a "sell" signal when it identifies when the power behind a move is strong enough to result in a multi-week, or significant multi-day sell-off.
Because there are no guarantees in life, one benefit of the PPI signal is that if the market decides to take a bizarre twist against the signals, this indicator is smart enough to pick up the changes quickly before too much damage can be done and reverse course.
There's no guessing with these signals: they are cut and dried indicators, objective. Opinions, judgments, and investor bias is stripped away. Correlation has been nothing short of remarkable.
Here's how we like to apply these signals: When both the Stochastic and Purchasing Power Indicators issue new "buy" signals, we like to take a long position in the expectation of a rally. When both generate new "sell" signals, we like to go short, or step out of the market and wait for "buy" signals to reappear, anticipating a correction lower.
Unique to these indicators, they have done an amazing job identifying prolonged "sideways" moves in the market. The probability of a "sideways" move occurs when one indicator is on a "buy" and the other is on a "sell." We are not aware of any other market analysis service out there that identifies high probability "sideways" moves. This information is critical for options traders as options lose value during lengthy sideways moves. In the options buying world, Bears win, Bulls win, and Sideways lose.
And finally, we are so excited about these unique indicators that we would like to offer you a special discounted annual subscription rate through August 31st, 2005 should you desire to add these signals and our other market analysis services to your trading/investing arsenal of advisory tools.

No, it is a timing stock market, a trader's market, and that looks to be our future. In this stock market environment, to make money, good buy/sell signals are critical.

"Have this attitude in yourselves, which was also in Christ Jesus,
Who, although He existed in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped,
but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bondservant,
and being made in the likeness of men.
And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by
becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
Therefore, also God highly exalted Him,
and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus, every knee should bow,
of those who are in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth,
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father."
Philippians 2:5-11
