<x-rich>Realtraders,
Sorry, but I forgot to attach the chart the first time.
Realtraders,
With the recent discussion on gold, I thought I would give a
symmetrical interpretation of this market. Attached is a daily chart of
the XAU since Feb. '96. Simply, take a look at the <bold>rallies
</bold>this index was able to generate during this prolonged downtrend
starting with the November '96 rally. This rally measures 16.07 points
+/- 3.2 pts (20% rule), we will call this Wave 1-2. Wave 3-4 (Feb '97)
measures 16.97 points and symmetrically MATCHES the original Wave 1-2.
The next Wave 4-5 (May '97) measures 17.87 points and still matches the
original wave. Now for the current time frame. The Wave 6 bottom
occurred on July 7th at 85.79. If we know that past rallies equaled
approximately 16 points, we should expect a potential rally from 85.79 +
16.07 = 101.86, +/- 3.2 points. Thus I would expect a rally into this
zone before we may again see some selling into this market.
On the positive side, you will see that we have an EXTENDED wave
structure and as such failure is POSSIBLE. In this case, a failure would
allow this index to continue to rally higher than the 16.07+3.2 or 19.27
pt projected gain. However, I do not see rallies higher than 110-120 on
the XAU at this time.
Hope this helps,
John Boggio
