rel=\"noopener\"><u>TheTechnicalTraders.com<\/u><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Over the past 20+ years of research and trading in the markets, our team of traders and researchers know one thing is certain, when fear hits the global markets, precious metals react by rocketing higher.\u00a0 We\u2019ve seen this happen over and over again \u2013 even when non-US geopolitical concerns spark some true fear in the markets.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve followed our research this week, we\u2019ve been warning about how we believe this move is purely price and technical based and not really a fear-based global price collapse.\u00a0 In other words, our technical systems, price modeling systems, and other advanced price analysis tools are suggesting this move is nearing an end and was likely a function of price rotation and less a function of true fear in the global markets.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, there were a couple of key factors the precipitated this price move; the Fed, Earnings, Housing Data, Trade, and Geopolitical concerns and the US Elections.\u00a0 Yet the biggest concern for traders was the \u201cdeja vu\u201d feeling that Housing could present another massive crash near an election.\u00a0 We\u2019ve been through that and we know how ugly that can be if it were to unfold again.<\/p>\n<p>Our researchers, at <strong><u><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1zUUpun\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.TheTechnicalTraders.com<\/a><\/u><\/strong>, spent quite a bit of time going over the data and we continue to believe this downside price rotation in the global stock markets was nothing more than a technical price correction WITHOUT any real capitulation from other commodities.\u00a0 If the recent downside price collapse sowed any real fear into investors, then precious metals should have skyrocketed higher over the past 3+ weeks.<\/p>\n<p>This Weekly Gold chart shows how prices advanced moderately over the past few weeks and failed to originate any real broad upside move as equity prices collapsed.\u00a0 Weeks ago, we predicted Gold would climb to near $1235, the CYAN line on this chart, before weakening to near $1200 again near the US mid-term elections.\u00a0 After the elections, we believe that Gold will begin another price advance toward a price target near $1310 headed into 2019.<\/p><div id=\"inves-713106633\" class=\"inves-in-content

projections are based on our Fibonacci price modeling system and suggest that Gold may ultimately have an upside potential near $1435 or $1565 eventually.\u00a0 These upside targets, if reached, would be the result of REAL FEAR entering the global markets associated with a much greater contagion\/capitulation event taking place. \u00a0This may be something that happens in the future, as some point, but we don\u2019t believe this is taking place now.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26701\"

of Silver actually fell slightly over the past few weeks and stayed near $14.75.\u00a0 A recent double bottom formation in Silver near $13.95 is a very strong indication that Silver is establishing a long-term base near the $14.00 level.\u00a0 You can see from our draws arrows that we believe Silver will continue to contract headed into the US mid-term elections, then begin a moderate advance higher.<\/p>\n<p>We are actively searching for new trades within the precious metals sector that present clear opportunities for our members\/subscribers as we believe this upside move in the metals will be one of the best trades in 2019.\u00a0 Although, right now, these trades are \u201csetup trade\u201d in the sense that we don\u2019t expect any true fear to change price at the moment.\u00a0 We do expect investors to continue to look towards the precious metals markets as a form of protection from global events in the future and we believe that when the dam breaks and fear really does enter the markets, traders need to already be positioned within the precious metals sector \u2013 not chasing after the move.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetechnicaltraders.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/gc2.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\"

width=\"700\" height=\"440\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Overall, our question still remains valid \u2013 where\u2019s the capitulation in the precious metals?\u00a0 If this downside price movement within the global markets was \u201cthe top\u201d, we have yet to see any real capitulation in precious metals, which we believe would be the first place to reflect this true fear.\u00a0 Without this capitulation, our researchers continue to believe this is a technical \u201creversion\u201d move where price is moving lower to re-establish support for another upside price advance.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, we do expect moderate price advances in the precious metals sector over the next 4~6+ months.\u00a0 We believe this sector will continue to attract investors as a means of protection against a sudden and more structural price collapse event in the future.\u00a0 Right now, though, we just don\u2019t see the capitulation that would need to be in place if the downside equities move instilled any real fear in traders.\u00a0 It\u2019s just not there \u2013 yet.\u00a0 Therefore, this recent downside swing appears to be a capital shift or reversion event where price will quickly attempt to find support, based (headed into the US mid-term elections \u2013 as we\u2019ve been suggesting) and begin to move higher after November 12<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>Please visit <strong><u><a
