Chris, I read that story before I posted -g-

There is a chart analog for a drop back to the base of the breakout of the July Highs.

Gold is another speculators field and the XAU broke out of it's h&S inverted base in early September. There was a blitz of bullish media and sentiment on the XAU. The put/call ratio at the top was extremely lopsided, several of the stocks I follow had absolutely NO NO NO put buying and lots of calls.

The index dropped 41% of it's move from the August 31 lows in 3 trading sessions, right into the base of it's breakout pattern @71.

Since we have had over a double in the INX2 since the breakout, we could easily make the 40% target of this contest.
