Read More...Today we are continuing our focus on gold and the S&P 500 and looking at spread betting strategies that can be applied to these markets.
In our last post 2 days ago on gold we wrote that the market was continuing to reject the lows and that if the market was going to move lower in the short term that the breach of support at $1185 should have had more follow through to the downside than it did. We noted that the lower shadows on the candle patterns seen on Monday and Tuesday were indicative of the lows being rejected due to buyers coming in and that the piercing pattern on Tuesday was pointing to higher prices.

Read More...Continuing our focus on the S&P 500 and different spread trading strategies that can be used on this market, today we are looking at the resistance from moving averages.

Read More...Recently we have been discussing various spread trading strategies for stocks and commodities and the 2 markets that we have been focusing on are gold and the S&P 500.
Let’s begin today with gold. In our last post on gold we wrote that we were looking for a move back up above short term resistance at $1215. We had written that there had been a bull harami pattern on the weekly charts and that this pointed to higher prices in the short term and a test of $1215 resistance early in the week. We got that test yesterday and the market moved up to $1218.8 (August contract) at one stage in the day but was unable to close above $1215.

The week ahead is likely to give us a better idea of short term action for the stock markets than we got from last week in spite of the impressive rally.
