OPTIONS PLAY: Comex Gold Makes New Record High After A Busy Week
After Soft U.S. Economic Data And A BP Hearing On Capital Hill This Past Week Comex Gold Futures Rallied To A New Record High.
MY ANALYSIS
Fundamentally, COMEX GOLD FUTURES rallied to a new all-time record high on flight to quality buying as the U.S. saw soft Housing, Job, and Manufacturing Data. COMEX GOLD FUTURES also spiked as BP CEO, Tony Hayward got grilled on Capital Hill.
Technically, I see COMEX GOLD FUTURES in a SUPER TREND higher which I define as a market that holds above the 9 period Moving Average.
