Otherwise he'll just claim victory if we see a sharp $10 fall...
Why is the failure of every bullshit conspiracy theory further evidence for yet another conspiracy theory? If "the banksters" are manipulating the price, it's not to keep a downtrend intact, it is to ensure predicatable price swings up and down so they can profit from the volatility. All you need is human greed, no grand conspiracy theory.BuggedOut said:Banksters are trying to keep the downtrend intact by shorting hard at the resistance level. If they fail then the upside breakout will be a thing of pure beauty, but it will be a death knell for the system which the banksters can't afford to let happen. Especially not now that a Sept/Oct crash has been (narrowly) averted.

I personally think they will succeed again - this time. Fed may well raise rates just in time to shift focus away from gold and onto to the $US. But golds time will come soon. I'm currently targeting 1st quarter 2016.
Porcello said:Actually so far Leon got many calls right and anybody should give him that. The fact that he has zero trades is completely irrelevant.
My only objection is that what he calls "smackdown" might be relevant in paper trading but it is completely irrelevant for long term physical holders. And he should not use technical analysis to recommend stackers' behavior.

Who says gold has to be inflated?
Can't silver just be low?
Ratios are just that, a ratio. It doesn't imply that to two are intrinsically linked and that one must be "inflated" etc.

leon1998 said:Maybe I should use the word, overvalued. And I am talking about gold compared to crude oil and silver. The GCR (Gold/Crude Ratio) and GSR (Gold/Silver Ratio) are both at or about historic highs right now. From the long term point of view, investing in Silver or Crude Oil will have a better return than gold.

Porcello said:Just a matter of personal opinions. For this guy silver is currently overvalued while gold is undervalued.
