Gold and Silver patterns had "Measured Rule" fulfillment..

By Scott Pluschau

Gold futures developed a "Symmetrical Triangle" over a five day period that can be clearly seen on the 30 minute chart.  The breakdown point of the triangle was at approximately the 3/4 mark toward the apex, which is ripe for a sharp reaction in my experience.

The "Measured Rule" target was reached in a fraction of the time it took to form the pattern.

Gold is finding support at the major trendline on the Daily chart.  Sometimes the supply can shut off temporarily when the measured rule target is reached.  There is still potential for the flood gates to open up again below major trendline support.

Silver lost support of a "Coil" on its Daily chart (right hand side below) and the "Measured Rule" of this pattern was fulfilled as well.


Silver is sitting on major trendline support now, which is a downward sloping trendline and this resembles a "Slide".  "Waterfall" like declines have the greatest probability when these types of trendlines break down with volume.  Will the supply shut off after the Coil measured rule was fulfilled?  Time will tell, but I am ready for any reaction beforehand.
