Gold Futures

Gold futures in the April contract settled last Friday in New York at 1,239 an ounce while currently trading at 1,258 up about $19 for the trading week with the highest prices that we have seen since November 11th as the bullish momentum continues. At present, I am not involved in gold, but I do believe prices are going higher as I'm already involved in silver, copper, and platinum as I don't want to be too top-heavy because they all follow one another. Gold prices are trading above their 20 and 100-day moving average telling you the short-term trend is higher as I do believe prices will retest the $1,300 level which is where gold was trading at the U.S election. If you are long a futures contract, I would place your stop loss under the 10-day low which stands at $1,217 as prices broke out in Thursday's trade as there is a lot of demand for gold & the precious metals so continue to play this to the upside in my opinion.

Gold Futures

Gold futures in the April contract settled last Friday in New York at 1,235 an ounce while currently trading at 1,244 right near a 3 month high as I'm currently sitting on the sidelines as I'm involved in all the other precious metals as you don't want to be too overloaded on one side as that can be dangerous if things fall apart. I am certainly not recommending any type of short position as I do think prices are headed higher & if you do have a futures position on I would place my stop under the 10-day low standing at 1,217 which is about $30 away or $3,000 risk per contract plus slippage & commission. Gold prices are trading above their 20, and 100-day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is higher as the next major level of resistance was hit on February 8th at 1,246, and if that is broken, I think prices will head back up to the 1,300 level where prices were trading right when Trump was elected.

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the March contract settled last Friday at 53.83 a barrel while currently trading at 53.70 basically unchanged as I'm looking for a breakout above 54.34 for a bullish position to the upside as prices have gone nowhere over the last 2 months. Oil in Wednesday's trade hit a 9 week low creating a false breakout to the downside before rallying & finished higher on the trading session as prices have now traded up for the last 3 consecutive days so keep a close eye on this market as I still think higher prices are ahead. OPEC continues to hint that they might cut production in 2017 as they would like to see prices between $65/$75 a barrel and I think they will use their power to enhance prices as we are still trading above the 20 & 100-day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is higher. The chart structure will start to improve later next week as a breakout is looming in my opinion as we are just not going to trade sideways forever as the commodity markets still look bullish in my opinion.

Gold Futures

Gold futures in the April contract settled last Friday in New York at 1,191 an ounce while currently trading at 1,213 up over $20 for the trading week right near a 10 week high as I've been sitting on the sidelines in this commodity recommending bullish positions in silver and copper. Gold prices are still trading above their 20-day but below their 100-day moving average as the trend is mixed to higher in my opinion as the U.S dollar is still hovering right around the 100 level as I'm also recommending a short position in that currency at present. The monthly unemployment number was released this morning adding about 227,000 new jobs having very little impact on gold prices in today's trade. The next major level of resistance is yesterday's high around 1,227 and if that is broken, I think we could go back to around the 1,300 level right where we were before the Trump election as there is still room to run to the upside.

Mexican Peso Futures

The Mexican Peso in the March contract settled last Friday at 4594 while currently trading at 4730 hitting a 3 week high and if you have been following my previous blogs I've talked about this recently as prices hit all-time lows just a couple of weeks back against the U.S dollar as I think prices are just getting way overdone to the downside which is all based on the Trump administration being negative towards Mexico. The Peso is now trading above its 20-day moving average for the first time in months, but still below their 100-day as the short-term trend is mixed as I will wait for the 4 week high before entering into a bullish position as the chart structure will start to improve on a daily basis, therefore, lowering the monetary risk. I've been keeping a close eye on the U.S dollar for a short position, but it remains resilient still trading at about 100.50 as higher interest rates in the United States continue to support the U.S dollar. The next major level of resistance in the Peso is 4800, and if that is broken, you have to think that the multi-year bearish trend has finished.
TREND: MIXED
CHART STRUCTURE: SOLID
