‘Tis a two-day Tuesday-settlement session for the BEGOS Markets; given the StateSide holiday, trading halts begin today from 17:00 GMT (with resumption as usual at 22:00 GMT). At present, Oil is above the session’s Neutral Zone, whilst below same is Gold; volatility is expectedly light. The Gold Update suggests should price put in a third consecutive down week that the weekly parabolic Long trend may soon be approaching an end, (although for this week, a flip to Short were 4074 to trade is well out of expected range); currently 4441, Gold’s most volume-dominant overhead resistor is 4482; too in real-time, price is +60 points above its smooth valuation line (see Market Values); and by Market Trends, we may see Gold’s 21-day linreg rotate to negative by week’s end. ‘Tis “inflation week” for the Econ Baro, the August PPI due Thursday and the CPI come Friday.
