NFTRHgives few easy answers.  That is because its writer has no easy answers, although there are consistent road maps we have used for years now that have never failed to help preserve capital when necessary – which is often – and make outstanding capital gains, when appropriate.These road maps take the form of outliers (to … Continue reading

NFTRH175 took an extensive look at the HUI, ranging from a 15 minute (in-day, in-week) short-term management chart to a daily chart, a weekly chart and finally on out to the biggest – and most compelling of pictures – a this monthly chart. The nearer time frames generally look okay, with some caveats; notably including … Continue reading

This is a snippet from NFTRH172 focusing on the writer’s methods of viewing markets from a visual and psychological perspective.  I just want readers to continually think about herds and about what it takes to be able to get contrary these herds at the appropriate times.  NFTRH172 then proceeds on to actual intensive analysis … Continue reading

Regardless of what happens in the short-term (i.e. interim market correction of routine or severe degree upon completion of this sentiment-induced broad market rally), the analysis being brought forward in NFTRH over the last few weeks is painting a picture of a 2012 that could by year end, feature heightened inflation concerns as opposed to … Continue reading

Held captive by the low volume holiday week, gold sector investors look as if they will get dunked again upon the US market open today.  There are a few different potential scenarios in play with regard to the gold stocks, but gold itself has been pretty clear since the momentum-fueled ‘channel buster up’ last summer. … Continue reading

Italy has wrestled Greece out of the top spot in the Euro Trash Sweepstakes and I wonder if the gold-silver ratio will finally turn up from its consolidation.  If so, liquidity is going to go bye bye.  But aside from the ifs – as in ‘I wonder if the US Fed is going to … Continue reading

Gold’s nominal price worked off the euro hysteria excess for the most part, and its real price (vs. broad commodities) is still healthy and back up against resistance.  A rising real price of gold is of course generally indicative of economic deceleration and bad market stuff.  More and more the indicators are pointing to … Continue reading

Canadian Venture (CDNX)… Bottom? http://www.canadianinsider.com/index.php There is a lot to like about the chart below for a bottom feeder.  A 62% Fib of the entire bull market out of 2008’s destruction, with long term support at that Fib, along with the most over sold RSI since 2008. For the gold explorers and junior miners in … Continue reading

The public now hates the fact that it bought into this gold scam.  “Damn, if only I could have held out and not gotten so emotional, I would have remained calm and let our dear leaders find a solution instead of buying into this bubble” says the public. Real gold players know that the … Continue reading

Global markets are in the midst of a predictable relief rally to the technical bear market that recently became actualized off of various topping patterns that were in force for most of 2011.  It is important to note that this is coming off of a similarly predictable whiff of a deflation scare, as US and … Continue reading

On Friday, the conspiracy pieces were flying (some to my inbox) as indignation surged while gold tanked. One was forwarded by fund manager, NFTRH subscriber and all around sharp guy LL, to which I responded (pardon the crude descriptor for ‘momo’s’): “L, let me ask you this. Why then did my charts tell me … Continue reading

I expected a lot of things today… Gold getting smashed, among them.  But I did not expect to have a green portfolio with 2 hours left ’til the close.  The HUI-gold (GLD) ratio has done some good work as gold continues a very necessary and I bet, ultimately very healthy, correction. http://www.biiwii.blogspot.com http://www.biiwii.com
