Elliott Wave View: Potential Target for Gold’s Correction

By

Short Term Elliott Wave view in Gold (XAUUSD) suggests the metal continues the correction lower. The internal of the decline from November 9 peak is unfolding as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure.  Down from November 9 peak, wave ((a)) ended at 1850. Up from there, bounce in wave ((b)) unfolded as a zigzag in lesser degree. Wave (a) ended at 1890.41, wave (b) ended at 1855.30, and wave (c) of ((b)) ended at 1898.92.

The metal has resumed lower in wave ((c)). Internal of wave ((c)) is unfolding as a 5 waves impulsive structure. Down from wave ((b)) high at 1898.92, wave (i) ended at 1863.75 and bounce in wave (ii) ended at 1896.01. Down from there, wave i of (iii) ended at 1851.8, wave ii of (iii) ended at 1879.89, and wave iii of (iii) ended at 1820.40. Expect bounce to fail in 3, 7, or 11 swing against 1898.92 pivot for a few more lows before the metal completes wave ((c)). Potential short term target to the downside is 100% – 123.6% Fibonacci extension of wave ((a))-((b)) which comes at 1757.2 – 1784.3. From this area, expect the metal to resume higher or bounce in 3 waves at least.

StrikePoint Gold ($STKXF $SKP.CA) Correcting March Cycle

By

More coverage on the theme of Precious Metals market series that I am doing right now.  I am looking for Jr. producers that offer lucrative setups and are technically clean from the March cycle low.  StrikePoint has a fairly clean chart, but is in deep penny stock territory.  Rallying from a low of 0.01 cents to a high of 0.21 into the September Peak represents a very nice 2100% gain.  StrikePoint is an exploration company, and thus, represents extreme risk.  But the chart has followed the precious metals sector very closely off the March low, so there is no reason to believe it will be any different on another swing higher in Gold and Silver.

We are going to take a look at chart since the all time low set in March 2020.  This is an OTC ticker, the Canadian Symbol SKP.CA and they are listed on the TSX Venture exchange in Canada.  The Canadian chart will have different pricing, but the structure will be the same.

StrikePoint Elliottwave View:

StrikePoint

Since the March 2020 lows, the count is showing a clear impulsive structure into the September Peak.  Red I is favoured to have set at 0.21 on September 18. It is possible that this correction has completed at the ((W)) low.  However, our current expectation with gold and silver, is that there is still more downside possible.  With this in mind, I am looking for lower prices still on this stock.  There is no extreme area to measure since the connector ((X)) is not yet complete.  the 0.618 retrace for the rally from March low, to September peak, comes in at around 0.08.  So that may the area where a low may occur.  We do not like to trade the middle of a trend, but like to trade extreme areas.

This stock seems to be tracking Silver, more than Gold.  It really started to outperform when Silver broke out above $19.  Presently, the chart is still favouring one more swing lower in a double correction. As this is a penny stock, it is important to use proper risk management.  The technicals on this chart are fairly clean, and I favour the price structure to track silver closely until silver sets a low also.

Gold-to-Silver Ratio Suggests Further Upside in Precious Metals

By

Government and corporations around the world continue to accumulate unsustainable debt. Since it’s unthinkable for developed countries such as the United States to default on the obligation, the only way out of this situation is to continue to debase currencies. This environment is very supportive for Gold and Silver in coming years. Indeed, Gold has broken to new all-time high against all other world currencies including US Dollar. The chart below in Gold suggests a simple 100% extension from all-time low should see Gold reaching $2900 as a conservative target.

Furthermore, Gold-to-Silver ratio also confirms the direction of Gold and Silver remain bullish as the chart below suggests. Gold-to-Silver ratio is the ratio of gold price / silver price.

Gold-to-Silver Ratio Weekly Chart

Gold-to-Silver Ratio weekly Chart

The chart above shows an overlay of Gold-to-Silver ratio chart (top chart) with Gold (middle) and Silver (bottom). We can observe an inverse correlation between the ratio and the price of the underlying metals. The dotted vertical line above shows important swing high and low in the instrument. In between the vertical lines, we can see when the ratio formed significant peak, the price of gold and silver formed significant low and vice versa.

We can also see the ratio has reached perfect 100% – 123.6 extension blue box from March 1980 in 3 swing. From the blue box, the ratio reversed down violently. The current decline has broken below 2011 rising trend line suggesting the uptrend has ended. Expect the ratio to continue lower in coming years with possible next target at around 40 which is the lower end of the multi decade channel. Due to the inverse correlation, we can expect the price of Gold and Silver to continue higher in coming years.

Gold-to-Silver Ratio 4 Hour Elliott Wave Chart

4 hour chart of Gold-to-Silver ratio above shows a 5 waves impulsive structure from March 18, 2020 high. Short term, another leg higher still can’t be ruled out to end wave b before the ratio turns lower again. If the ratio is still doing another leg higher as expected, then we can’t rule out further correction in Gold and Silver due to the inverse correlation. Afterwards, when the ratio starts turning lower again, the price of Gold and Silver can start to extend higher.

GDXJ (Gold Miners Junior) Correction Maybe Completed

By

Gold and related Index such as Gold Miners Junior (GDXJ) maybe ready to make the next move higher. The next important catalyst in the market is the US election and the second Coronavirus relief package. Nancy Pelosi and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin continue to have discussion about the size and language of the stimulus bill. As the election is getting closer however, there’s skepticism whether Congress can approve the package before the election. Furthermore, Republican senators have indicated they won’t approve the bill even if the White House and Democrat can agree on the bill.

It’s however certain that the second stimulus package will come. The question is not whether it will come. Instead, the question is when will it come and how big. There is a belief among market participants that if Joe Biden can win the White House and Democrats can take over the Senate, Democrat can introduce a much larger stimulus package. As of now, the White House proposed $1.8 trillion package while Democrat proposed $2.2 trillion.

When the second stimulus package comes, it’s likely to create further support for the stock market. In addition, US Dollar should resume lower as the monetary and fiscal stimulus continue to debase the currency. One beneficiary for currency debasement is Gold and by extension Gold Miners. We wrote an article about Gold Miners Junior ($GDXJ) back in July 21 calling for further upside as it broke a 7 year basing pattern. Here’s the link to the article: Gold Miners Junior (GDXJ) breaks 7 year base

Since then, it has retraced the breakout base as chart below shows:

GDXJ (Gold Miners Junior) Monthly Elliott Wave Chart

GDXJ Monthly Elliott Wave chart

After the initial breakout above $52.5 in July, the Index has retraced the resistance-turned-support at the same level. There’s a possibility that the Index can resume higher again now. US election and further prospect of stimulus may become the catalyst for the move higher.

GDXJ (Gold Miners Junior) Daily Elliott Wave Chart

Gold Miners Junior ($GDXJ) Daily chart above shows it did a double three (W)-(X)-(Y) correction in the past 3 months to end wave ((2)). It has since turned higher but still needs to break above wave ((1)) at $65.95 to avoid a double correction. The Index now has a chance to resume higher and the next leg higher will get confirmation once it breaks above $65.95.

Elliott Wave View: Gold Correction Lower Taking Place

By

Elliott wave view in Gold ticker symbol: $XAUUSD suggests that the correction lower approximately towards $1801- $1669 area or a deep test of the 24 September 2020 low should be taking place. Right now, the bounce from the 9/24/2020 low has ended wave 2 in Gold. The internals of that bounce unfolded as Elliott wave zigzag structure where wave ((a)) ended at $1917.10 high. Down from there, wave ((b)) pullback unfolded as a lesser degree flat structure where wave (a) ended at $1886.20 low.

Wave (b) bounce ended at $1921.14 high and wave (c) completed at $1872.75 low thus completed wave ((b)) pullback. Up from there, the metal started wave ((c)) in an impulse sequence where wave (i) ended at $1898 high. Wave (ii) ended at $1878.70 low, wave (iii) ended at $1929.26 high, wave (iv) ended at $1918.40, and wave (v) ended at $1933.25 high, thus completed wave 2 correction. Below from there, the metal is showing 5 waves impulse sequence decline favoring a bounce to fail for another leg of weakness at least. Near-term, as far as the bounces fail below $1933.25 high expect metal to extend lower.

AUG (Gold/Silver Ratio) Showing A Five Waves From 03.18.2020

By

AUG( Gold/Silver Ratio), Showing A Five Waves From 03.18.2020.

The Ratio between Gold/Silver ( AUG) is a very good indicator of where the market is heading and especially the $USDX trade. The Ratio reached the extreme blue box area early this year when it trades into the 126.23 peaks. We at Elliottwave-forecast always relate the Market and understand how each instrument affects the other. When the Ratio reached the blue box area because we knew that the market was closed for a turn against the $USDX. And it will then affect the value of Silver in a quite simple equation i.e higher Silver means lower $USDX. Similarly lower Silver means higher $USDX. We will explain the forecast below.

Gold To Silver Ratio ( AUG) Monthly  Chart

AUG( Gold/Silver Ratio), Showing A Five Waves From 03.18.2020.

The following chart represented the advance in the Ratio since the old-time lows, and show how the Blue Box area was reached.  Meaning a change in dynamics and how we see the relationship between Gold and Silver. The Ratio trading higher means that Gold holds the value more than Silver. But most important means the $USDX is supported. We understand many will not be able to see the relationship between Gold trading higher and $USDX trading either sideways to higher or sideways to lower. The Ratio is like commodities crosses it is a balance between three instruments and always one needs to be sideways.

In this case, Gold, Silver, and USDX, we believe Gold will lag Silver into the news cycle and the $USDX will be the one losing ground. While Gold was leading Silver since 2016. It has been trading higher while Silver trade sideways and even took 2016 low. While $USDX makes a new high in the same period. The blue box reaching means the dynamics change and consequently knowing that will allow traders to get the best out of the Market. Early this year, we presented an article that explains exactly what the Market has been doing.

The article explains that Silver was about to turn higher and the $USDX will turn lower. As right now, we know the Ratio reached the Blue Box and turned lower. We already saw $XAGUSD (Silver) rally and $XAUUSD(Gold) taking the 2011 peak, which was expected. Now, something else has happened, the Ratio is showing a clear five waves decline off the peak at the Blue Box. The idea is explained in the following chart:

Gold To Silver Ratio ( AUG) Daily Chart

AUG( Gold/Silver Ratio), Showing A Five Waves From 03.18.2020.

The Idea presents the path into three waves bounce and then should see more downside. It will present a unique opportunity for those that understand how the Market works. As we always said, the Market is a series of three instruments, and the five waves lower in the ratio are telling us who will be the winner and who will be losing. The Five waves are telling us where to place our investment and why the $USDX will be the one losing. But also will be telling us that Silver will rally a lot and will be a long term opportunity.
