While two weeks ago the Gold price closed between $1,289 and $1,290.40, only a $1.40 range, the closing range last week was over $20 per ounce. Last week, Gold reached a high of $1,310 and a low of $1,286 per ounce, closing last Friday at $1,290.20 per ounce, down $0.40 for the week. Gold continues to be locked into the $1,280 to $1,320 trading range.
There appears to be a tug-of-war going on between Central Bank Gold buying, when Gold trades under $1,300 per ounce, and short-selling by professional traders when Gold is above $1,310 per ounce. When Gold trades near the lower end of the trading range, central banks are buying physical Gold while the price is being helped by professional traders covering their short-sales at a nice profit. I still believe we will see Gold move back above the $1,300 per ounce resistance level, and stay there, before the end of April.
Today: Gold tested support this morning, reaching a low of $1,281 before major buying appeared. This morning secretary Mnuchin said U.S/China trade talks are in final stages, giving some support to the U.S. Dollar.
Last week, Silver, like Gold, had a highly volatile week with a $0.47 high/low trading range. Silver reached a low of $14.80 and a high of $15.17 per ounce, with high trading volume. It continues to be frustrating to watch Silver stay in the current price range while the Silver to Gold ratio increases to 86.50-to-1. Silver needs to move above the $15.50 per ounce level for a few days before professional commodity traders will stop their bearing strategy of short-selling Silver on rallies and covering near the $14.80 lows.
Today: Silver tested support this morning, reaching a low of $14.80 per ounce before finding major buyers and short-covering.
