As you know, I don't follow anything fundamental, just charts... If you look at the XAU chart in the past 2 years, you will observe a pattern with measurements of 42.50 by 62.50....That means once we make the move at 62.50, we have 20 pts to the upside...Of course if 55 XAU is taken out to the downside, I will be out of gold, for a trendline will be broken as well as the pattern that I see... One of my best gold indicators is the CCI 5 period....I look for what I call a double down pattern..In the past 2 years every time the CCI 5 period goes below the -100 line, then moves up, and within 2 weeks goes back below the -100 line, you have a buy signal, and a good sized rally follows...Basically you buy heavy on the second double down..Same principle works on upside for shorting, but you are looking for two readings above the +150 line... What is interesting is we continue to hold above the trendline....50 day holding nicely... As far as deflationary environment, I don't argue with you there, but I see a U.S. dollar headed for 90 on the charts, an escalation of the violence, people once again buying gold, and a huge short covering rally as we move above 300 POG... Good luck to you....A quick business question... If you have an internet startup company that sells PowerPoint Bible study slides for religious leaders, is the best way to get national exposure, to allow a publishing house to get 50% of each sale, or just beef up your location by paying Web search engines money to keep your product before the eyes of the people? We have a very low budget website at pointofpower.com Have sold 30 CD's so far in two months at $20.00 a CD... Any input appreciated....Mark
