Noonan On “What the Charts Are Saying About Gold & Silver Today”

…Earlier this year we said that 2014 could well be a repeat of 2013 in terms of unrealized171686-gold-silver-bars expectations for much higher gold & silver price levels and over the ensuing months have continued to advise everyone to stay out of the long side of the paper futures market for as long as the trend continued down. That came from an obvious read of the charts. This article looks at what the gold and silver charts are saying today.

The above introductory comments are edited excerpts from an article* by Michael Noonan (edgetraderplus.com) entitled Gold And Silver – Charts Show Power Of Elite’s Central Bankers.

Noonan goes on to say in further edited excerpts:

Silver: Weekly Chart

…15.04 was last week’s low, forming a potential double bottom but, as seen in the chart below, there is no indication that any kind of bottom is the process of being formed.  The recent break of support has squelched those efforts, for now.

SI W 8 Nov 14

It is not important that 15.04 hold as an absolute low.  What is more important is how market activity develops for whatever the eventual low price becomes, whether it is last week’s price, 14.65, or any
other number, 14.50, 14.32, etc.  (Maybe even lower?)

There will be evidence, through price and volume, that a bottom is in place.  It may take several weeks to confirm so it will not pay to try to be “first in.”  Let the market prove its intent, and then one can be in a more informed and comfortable position to make better decisions from the long side, should one want to trade paper futures (if there is even a viable futures market in which to trade, and there may not be).

Continue to monitor the way in which price responds or reacts to these lower levels.  If there is no strong rally higher, on increased volume and upper range closes, then it will indicate that the bottoming process will take much more time.  Be patient and allow your thinking to let the market develop as it will, for the controlling forces remain in place.

Silver – Daily Chart

The daily chart below shows another layer of bearish spacing as silver continues to weaken relative to gold.  At some point, either once a low has been established or once a trend higher begins, silver is likely to outperform gold over the next several years.

SI D 8 Nov 14

When silver was in the low 20 area, we said prices were likely at generational lows.  While now lower, the sentiment remains equally true.  This artificial manipulation may go on beyond what most expect or want, but it will come to an end, and then even $50 silver will look like a great buy.  Keep a level head in the face of recognized artificial adversity.

SI D 8 Nov 14

Gold: Weekly Chart

A comparison of the difference in how gold is developing around its barely broken support with
that of silver, as seen in the chart below, provides an idea of what to look for when one market more successfully holds an area versus one that fails to hold in similar circumstances.  All that can be said of gold, while stronger than silver, is that the trend remains down, and that is the most important
piece of information to know, for now.

GC W 8 Nov 14

Gold: Daily Chart

The chart below shows more of the same, observing how price responds to this critical support area. If there is more deterioration to come, how strongly does it impact price to the down side?

GC D 8 Nov 14

Conclusion

There are so many ways in which market activity can develop that it does not pay to try and outguess how price reacts.  Let it react, and then you are in a better position to react to what is known without having to guess.  Keep it simple.

What has been missing during this 3+ year decline in PMs has been what we have pointed to on several occasions, a form of ending action that sends a message that a change in trend is in progress. Last Thursday and Friday’s sharply higher volume and wide ranges lower is the kind of activity that leads to the end of a trend. There is not enough to say it has happened, to be sure, but the end game is starting to step up and be closer to a resolve of ending of the down trend. [Let me explain further.] Read More »

Things just took a turn for the worst, and there is no turnaround in sight. Unless and until demand enters the picture, price will continue lower until it finds demand sufficient to effect a change.

Time is running out for all the 2014 enthusiasts that are calling for higher prices in gold and silver by year-end.

6. Noonan: Nothing Much New In Gold & Silver Charts – Take a Look

The market has not changed materially over the past many weeks/months and, as long as the market has not changed, expectations that the price of gold and silver should not change, either.

Present market conditions are the reality of what is, without getting into the mental gymnastics about the degree of reality reflected in the charts. Market activity trumps everything, and one works with that reality or risks substantial loss by favoring opinion/hopes/expectations. Below is what the charts are saying today. Read More »

18. Noonan: “Gold Ain’t Going Higher – At Least For the Short Term” – and Here’s Why

Does the fast-fading world reserve currency [the USD] look like it is collapsing? A look at the performance of the U.S. Dollar Index does not suggest that it is, weak as it is. If the fiat dollar is not in danger of imminent “collapse,” or even breaking down, then gold does not have this event as an impetus for rallying higher. [Frankly speaking,] until that changes, gold ain’t going higher, at least in the short term. Read More »

19. Noonan: Here’s Why Silver Is So Low & What To Do About It

The demand for silver has grown exponentially in the past few years (record sales for American Eagle coins, record buying in India), but supply, on the other hand, keeps diminishing…Whenever there is a situation where demand rises sharply, while supply commensurately declines, it is a recipe for higher prices, and usually, much higher prices. This is true, unless one is talking about the silver market…[which] is at its lowest levels in the past three years. With talk of silver going anywhere from $150 to $500 higher, it currently struggles to hold $20. Why is this so? Read More »

29. Noonan: The Most Factual Information On Gold & Silver Is Right HERE

In an election, it does not matter if voter turnout is high or low, the outcome is determined by the actual votes cast. The same holds true for the markets. Only those who make an actual buy or sell decision determine the outcome of the market trend. The market “voters” turn up in charts, recorded in the price range, close, and volume. Collectively, a “story” unfolds, and it usually is an accurate one as it does not include any opinions. Opinions do not matter. Articles written about fundamentals, pundit declarations, etc., all fall under the category of opinions. The market is the best source for information, and that is a fact. Read More »

30. Noonan: “Where’s the Beef?” We See None in the Charts for Gold & Silver

…Fiats have an unbroken track record of failing throughout all of history. Gold also has an unbroken track record of being a store of value for over 5,000 years. Yes, there have been hiccups along the way, and we are in one now. It is what it is, but what it is is also an incredible buying opportunity at “fire sale” prices….[That being said,] a look at the charts of the paper-tracked PM market [beg the question] … “Where’s the beef?” Where is the substance of anything? We see none in the charts. Take a look. Words: 610; Charts :4 Read More »

31. Noonan’s Unique Approach to Technical Analysis Says This About the Silver Market

Technical analysis is a measure different from fundamental analysis…and we qualifying our approach with a specialized subset of technical analysis. How so? We read price and volume behavior, over time, in the form of developing market activity. It is what one sees on a chart, price ranges, close locations, volume, time factor[s], but no more. Below are charts that suggest that the weakness in silver may be coming to an end, sooner now rather than later, but that for now, it is what it is – and what is, is reality. Read More »

The best way is to decide for yourself…so let us go to the most reliable source, the market, and see what the prices of gold and silver have to say about what everyone else has been saying about them.

  1. I believe that when PM’s truly reverse their current trend, we will witness not only a rapid “recovery” but their values will continue to increase due to the “sorting out” of all the paper trading that has been going on.

    2015 looks to be a great year for PM’s…
