Yawn, same old same old...trading range.... Gee, didn't I predict this? Message 23473517 But one other famous Sliderism, "trade the traders" seems to come to mind. Gee, wonder how that fits with a guru and his prognostications? H3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. glad you finally showed up...better late than never...

Great post Slider!!!..... Rogue will tell you that Gold is being accumulated in this trading range! Get ready for the death of the US$$ and the lost purchasing power of US$$ holders. Protect yourself with Gold because the "Breakout" looms in the very near future!! ROGUE

Pity the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer, Gordon Brown, didn't listen to that chaps advice. Mind you, he probably had expert advice to sell. Just wish I'd enough cash to buy it all at the fire sale.

Dude, time to get out of the time warp and into the present? The L.A. Raiders (they’ll always be the OAKLAND Raiders to me) How long has it been since the Raiders were in LA? 12 years? Geez! raiders.com en.wikipedia.org But hey they get the first draft pick this year, did you know that? H3

'That beauty of charts is that they don’t lie about the past. They may not be able to predict the future… but, they are incapable of lying about the past.' Slider- well said! People can boo, hiss, piss and moan all they want- but, this chart speaks the truth. A truth that no other pundit, guru, newsletter editor(I get about 10 of them),or cheerleader from Kitco, or Gold Eagle spoke. THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE ! Ron PS: The Rams are in St. Louis, the Cardinals in Phoenix, somebody is in Memphis, the Browns are really the Ravens and the Baltimore Colts are in Indianapolis- who the hell knows where these damn teams are (LOL!) The Limey thinks there in L.A. - whoopty doo...

Slider,when you find the right key, the market changes the locks. Certainly, the volatility that exists today is too compelling to ignore. But since no one can time the market long term with any consistency, the best strategy is to hold a core position and trade around that position. To look at past history on a chart and say the market has given you all these opportunities is disingenuous and analagous to saying "buy low and sell high". I would love to hear your thoughts about China, the liquidity driven Asian markets, and uranium. What charts can you cite which have any predictive value in these markets. Focusing on the words "China" and "liquidity" are going to make you more money over the next 10-20 years than trying to make prescient market timing calls in gold. JA

Trading a range bound stock/index I very much agree with in principal but in actuality it is very hard to do. Even you have changed the lower trading range of 270 +/- from your 1/7/07 chart: Message 23161832 To 305 +/- on your 4/23/07 chart. The majority of great fortunes made in stock market have come from holding the right stocks over the long term, certainly using the discipline of stops.

Like I said the first time - hindsight. So we should buy the lows and sell the highs - brilliant ! It's obvious you have a plan here. Regarding "zero-cost" shares, there's no such thing. I started in the market 30 years ago and put a few thousand of real dough into play, and have played ever since. By your logic, the multiples of profits are "zero-cost" and so I don't need to worry about risking it. Profound garbage (sorry, but I calls 'em as I seez 'em). A dollar lost is a dollar lost (or a little bit less) every day. Sorry, but I expected more - even a better tease. I see no product here, but then a good salesman doesn't need a product to make a sale. wg
