OPTIONS PLAY: COMEX GOLD  Eyes $1400/Ounce Again?

Is $1500/ounce COMEX GOLD a real possibilty by the end of this year?

MY ANALYSIS

Fundamentally,  The currency wars between  China, Europe, and the U.S. could be the driving force in my opinion that sends COMEX GOLD to $1500/ounce by the end of the year or very early in the 1st quarter of 2011. Because of this, I believe that calls or call spreads should be considered on any pull backs in this market.

Technically, COMEX GOLD FUTURES are still in a long-term SUPER TREND higher indicated to me by the market holding and trading above both the 9 week MOVING AVERAGE and the 20 week MOVING AVERAGE, as the MA’s point higher. See  weekly chart below. Additional charts, studies, and commentary can be found at:  http://markethead.com/2.0/free_trial.asp?rid=McKinney
