Precious metals running, delivering more client gains, sidestepping the slump in the second half of the day. Precious metals recovered, USD is wobbling badly as talked in Saturday‘s extensive analysis, and ES had overcome two important resistances, so is it out of the woods, or time for a little wobble first?
