I will say that we want to make sure the 1650-1680\u2019s areas are defended by Gold on any pullbacks in order for this forecast to remain valid.\u00a0 During this 5<sup>th<\/sup> wave up, eventually we should see the $2380 ranges in Gold, but it will not take place overnight.\u00a0 In the next few months I am looking for Gold to attack the $1900 range, possibly even by year end, and then in 2012 attacking the $2000 plus ranges.<\/p>\n<p>With all of the Macro events in Europe changing on an almost daily basis, the whipsaws in both the precious metals and equities markets are difficult to forecast and trade for most investors. However, Gold has been moving in defined Fibonacci and wave patterns for ten years now, and has about three years left in a 13 year bull cycle if I\u2019m right.<\/p>\n<p>Below is the updated weekly chart of Gold.\u00a0 You can see prior low\u2019s as they related to oversold indicators, and where we just came off the 1531 lows and its Fibonacci pivot along with the oversold indicators below.<\/p>\n<p>Look for Gold to attack 1775 first, then 1800, 1840, then 1900 in the coming 6-10 weeks or so.<\/p>\n<div>\n<dl id=\"attachment_409\">\n<dt><a href=\"http:\/\/www.themarkettrendforecast.com\/forecasts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/GoldForecast.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Gold Forecast\" src=\"http:\/\/www.themarkettrendforecast.com\/forecasts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/GoldForecast.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Forecast\" width=\"590\" height=\"456\" \/><\/a><\/dt>\n<dd>Gold Forecast<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>You can get 3-5 updates a week on Gold, SP500, and Silver by visiting<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thetechnicaltraders.com\/237-8.html\" target=\"_blank\">www.MarketTrendForecast.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s been several weeks since I\u2019ve written about Gold and we have had a wild ride since the 1910-1920 highs in August.
