Buy signals for Gold and Silver

XAU/USD

• Gold initially held strong resistance at 2594/98 & dipped to 2580.

• In the afternoon we broke higher & I wrote:

• This is a buy signal for Gold too as we beat 2603.
  Support at 2602/2598 now (although we are unlikely to see this level at this stage) & longs need stops below 2593.
  ​​​​​​​Targets: 2521, 2531.

• We have hit the first target as we look for 2531 & even 2643 is possible.

• Above here we could reach the 2652/56 area.

XAG/USD

• Silver held minor resistance at 3080/3085 all morning but the break above 3090 in the afternoon was our buy signal as we completed the inverse head & shoulders pattern

• Targets: 3120, 3160/65.

• It looks like we could even reach 3190 eventually.

• Support at 3100/3080 & longs need stops below 3070.

WTI Crude December future

Last session low & high for the December contract: 6661 - 6939.

• WTI Crude collapsed from resistance at 6880/6920 to both targets of 6850/6830 & the late October low at 6690/70 on Friday

• On Monday we shot higher to recover all the steep losses as WTI Crude remains locked in a sideways range.

• Note the bullish engulfing candle, although I do not trust the buy signal in the face of the lack of direction for this market & the longer term sideways consolidation.

• We beat minor resistance at 6775/6795 to hit the next target & strong resistance at 6880/6920.

• A break above 6950 today can target 6990, perhaps as far as 7040/70.

• If prices collapse yet again from the low $69 area look for 6870, perhaps as far as 6830/10.

• Further losses retest 6690/6660.

• If we continue lower, look for a retest of the 2024 low, set in September at 6545/25.
