Silver and GOLD PRICES both backed down today, gold $6.10 (0.44%) to $1,372.9 and silver 13.5 cents (0.063%) to 2124.9c.

These are not gigantic changes, although the GOLD PRICE rushed into new high for the move with a lower close might possibly become a key reversal if it closes lower tomorrow. Silver did close below its 20 DMA at 2140c, but that's subject to oft whipsawing. Maybe silver and gold prices are merely wringing out the safe-haven enthusiasm. The gold price would have to fall to its 20 DMA at $1,342 to signal anything more than usual fluctuations.

Bigger question is whether the SILVER PRICE is contradicting gold's rally, or merely lagging as it often does. If silver is non-confirming, then gold could find trouble ahead.

I am still buying the price dips, although I'll give this one a day or so to sort itself out. That bull market may be dissembling, trying to shake off the most riders possible.

I won't be sending y'all a commentary on this Friday because I am going to the Upcountry Literary Festival at the University of South Carolina at Union in Union, South Carolina. They have invited me to read from At Home in Dogwood Mudhole, on Saturday, 22 March 2014. My 25 minutes in the sun runs from 9:20 a.m. to 9:45 a.m. Last year Susan and I enjoyed a delightful time there from a wide variety of writers. If you make it, be sure to say hello to us. I won't be saying ne'er a word about silver and gold on stage.

I reckon you buy the rumor and sell the news. Putin's coup in Crimea was might near accomplished with the secession referendum over the weekend. The Crimeans who voted chose to secede from Ukraine and go with Russia. That appears to be a done deal, so perhaps now the entire issue will evaporate, boiling off in steam from hot politicians.

That attitude seems to have sucked the safe-haven money out of the yen today, perhaps out of gold, and blown it back into stocks. I'm not so sure. Contemporary politicians are just as moronic as those of 1914, so plenty capable of starting a devastating war. I can only pray they don't succeed.

Speaking of secession, how come they can do that in Crimea but we can't do that in Tennessee? After all, the US has been the promoter of "national self-determination" since Woodrow Wilson. I reckon that US enthusiasm depends on who's seceding from whom. Once the US seizes a country fair and square, they ain't forward to give it back. Ask the Hawai'ians.

Yen fell most on losing that safe-haven money, down 0.375 to 98.29 cents/Y100. Left behind a nasty exhaustion gap, which likely puts the cap on the Yen for some time.

Like Freddy Kruger, the euro has come back, even if its chainsaw is a mite dull. Technically it's headed for $1.4500, but what's "technical" to a central-bank-manipulated scrofulous fiat currency? Higher the euro climbs, more heat it puts on European manufacturers, mostly German.

US dollar is poised on a precipice, but rose 7 basis points today (0.09%) to 79.51. Should the dollar not reverse, it could suffer a blood-curdling fall from here.

The casino was re-opened and blowin' and goin' on Wall Street today. Dow shot up 181.55 (1.13%) to 14,247.22, a tinch over the 20 Day Moving Average (16,245.88). Dow remains in a downtrend until it crosses above 16,588.25, the December high. MACD flashed a sell signal last week, which flasheth still.

S&P500 leapt 0.965 (17.7) to 1,858.83, also above the 20 DMA (1,855.25). Needs to jump over $1,875 to beat the present downtrend.

After last week's big drops the Dow in Metals rose today on metal's weakness and stock strength. Neither stands in any near peril of reversing trend upward. Dow in Gold ended the day up 2.25% to 11.88 oz (G$245.58). Dow in Silver hit its 200 DMA Friday but bounced up today and even ran above its 20 DMA (759.45 oz). Went home today 2.42% higher at 766.74 oz (S$991.34 silver dollars).

Why do I report these prices in gold dollars and silver dollars? Either because I'm crazy, or because I'm trying to wean y'all off thinking in filthy fiat money and into real money. Also, measuring the Dow in gold gives us one unchanging measure of the Dow since it began in 1885.

Commodities

Gold is at the highs once again, testing 1380-1400 area where we see some important Fibonacci levels that could react as resistance in this week. An updated count now shows a five wave move in wave (c) of C that is in final stages after recent break out of a running triangle in subwave four.

Keep in mind that on a daily time frame we are still looking at a triangle count where price is now testing important 78.6% retracement level of 1435-1180 move. A reversal down from here back to wave four range could suggest a completed rally for metals.

Start Trading Gold Now!

By: DailyForex.com

Gold prices rose 3.15% over the course of the week as safe-haven demand continued to lure more investors back into the market. The XAU/USD pair (Gold vs. the American dollar) traded as high as $1387.84 an ounce after the bulls managed to break through the 1376 resistance which I earlier pointed out as a key to higher levels.

Lately, there has been a constant upward pressure on the precious metal as investors have become more anxious about growing tension between Ukraine and Russia but dollar weakness is another reason gold is firmer now. In the latest economic data, the University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index came in at 79.9, down from the previous month's 81.6 and below expectations for a reading of 81.8.

Friday's data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) revealed that speculative traders on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange increased their net-long positions in gold to 118890 contracts, from 115166 a week earlier. If the situation doesn't stabilize, I think market players will continue to flee from equities and flock to gold. But if the crisis is resolved and fear factor is removed from the market, gold can lose its gleam quickly.

From a technical perspective, trading inside the Ichimoku cloud on the weekly time frame suggests there will tough challenges waiting the bulls. If the XAU/USD resumes its bullish sentiment and leaves the 1384.50 resistance level behind, I will look for 1392/8. Once the pair clears 1400, more resistance will be waiting at 1416. If the bulls run out gas, expect to see some support at 1376. Closing below this support would indicate that the pair is heading back to 1365.

XAUUSD Daily 31714

A heavy slate of key economic indicators will be released next week, including Empire State manufacturing index, industrial production, building permits, consumer price index and existing home sales.

XAUUSD H4 31714
