Gold Bullion and Stocks Potential Intermediate Term Price Targets

Commodities / Gold and Silver 2012 Oct 03, 2012 - 01:15 AM GMT

By: Jordan_Roy_Byrne

Commodities

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe precious metals complex rebounded strongly in August and September, which is typical when the larger trend is bullish. We believe the larger trend turned bullish with the bottom in May. However, weeks ago we noted targets of $1800 for Gold and 57 for GDX as resistance points. The market has begun a corrective period which should last deep into October. Nevertheless, such a correction would provide an excellent entry point before the market makes its next move higher. Today we examine potential medium term and intermediate term targets for Gold and the gold stocks.


Starting with Gold, we find it correcting and consolidating after reaching resistance at $1800, which was an obvious short-term target. Upon a break past $1800, the initial target would be $1900. Since $1800 is stronger resistance than $1900 we can apply its distance from the bottom ($1550) and that projects to another target of $2050.  Upon a breakout past $1900, the market could be setting up for a potential cup and handle pattern which projects to a minimum of $2250.

Gold

Next we analyze Gold in terms of its trend channels. Note that trendline A defined resistance from 1999 to 2010 and has defined support in 2011 to 2012. The next trendline resistance comes into play at $2350 in Q3 2013 and $2550 in Q4 2013.

Gold

Moving to the shares, we note that GDX faces its next major resistance at $65. A potential cup and handle pattern projects to the $90-$93 zone.

GDX

The GDX vs. Gold ratio shows 0.40 to 0.45 as a potential future target zone. Figures of $2250 for Gold and 90 for GDX equate to a ratio of 0.40.

GDX:GOLD

The precious metals complex is correcting in the near-term and we expect that to continue for the next several weeks. Following the correction we see immediate upside targets of $1900 for Gold and 63-65 for GDX. Essentially, the next breakout should result in a retest of the former highs. Moving beyond the medium term, we see a target zone for Gold of $2300 to $2500 and GDX to 90-93. The timetable for such is in the next 15 months. In the meantime, the sector is correcting and we expect that to continue for the majority of October. Thus, be advised that the coming weeks will be an opportunity to accumulate your favorite positions at lower prices.
