OPTIONS PLAY: Comex Gold Pulls Back

 As the U.S. Dollar Index bounces up COMEX GOLD FUTURES are pulling back near support.

MY ANALYSIS

Fundamentally, as “Currency Wars” get under way between the U.S. and China I believe that with diminshing confidence in Fiat Currencies more and more investors and traders will be attracted to COMEX GOLD FUTURES.

Technically, COMEX GOLD FUTURES have pulled back just below the 20 day Moving Average. I see the trend still up as the 20 day MA is still pointing higher.  See daily chart below. Additional charts, studies, and commentary can be found at: http://markethead.com/2.0/free_trial.asp?rid=McKinney

All known news and events have already been factored into the price of the underlying commodities discussed. The limited risk characteristic of options refers to long options only; and refers to the amount of the loss, which is defined as premium paid on the option(s) plus commissions.
