GOLD : Benefits of Investing in GoldOANDA:XAUUSD Gold has been an inconsistent inflation hedge, but there may still be benefits to holding a small amount of the yellow metal in your portfolio. Gold has historically had a low or even negative correlation to both stocks and bonds, suggesting it offers value as a tool of diversification. Gold prices held up pretty well during the Covid-19 pandemic market sell-off in early 2020, for example. From Feb. 1 to April 1 in 2020, the S&P 500 declined 23% while the price of gold dropped less than 0.1%. Demand for gold from investors, central banks, jewelers and tech companies is also growing. According to the World Gold Council, global gold demand increased 12% year over year to 2.189 tons in the first half of 2022. Depending on your individual goals, there are several easy ways to invest in gold. Investors can buy gold bullion, physical bars or coins that can be kept in a safe or bank. You can also buy physical gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that hold gold bullion on investors’ behalf. The most popular gold ETF is SPDR Gold Shares (GLD). Investors looking to speculate in the gold market can trade gold futures contracts. These contracts provide significant leverage, allowing investors to control large quantities of gold with a relatively small amount of money. Finally, investors can buy shares of individual gold stocks or a gold mining ETF. The VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX) holds a diversified basket of 54 gold-related stocks, including Newmont Corp. (NEM), Barrick Gold Corp. (GOLD) and Franco-Nevada Corp. (FNV). Conclusion : GOLD IS SAFE HEAVEN TO INVEST IN IT .

Have we missed out the train? Has the era of Technology about to end like the dot com bubble?

AUDUSD Long Bias Trade Plan and IdeaTraders are in big-time risk aversion mode as more bad news on the Coronavirus outbreak continues to hit the wires. Most notable that seems to have traders running to safe havens. Safe havens like the Greenback have already benefited in the session, while risk currencies like the Aussie (and the major currency most likely affected by this outbreak given Australia’s strong economic ties with China). AUD/USD which has already made more than a full daily ATR move lower since the week open (0.6814) before bottoming out around 0.6765. This week, the US Federal Reserve is scheduled to have its first meeting this year and expected to decide on its monetary policy. The key interest rate will apparently remain intact, but that’s not 100%. One for the more prudent traders who like to go after higher risk-to-reward returns on this major pair will not hesitate to risk and we all know "No pain... No gain! meaning no risk no profit!"

Aussie Vs Loonie (AUD/CAD) Trade Strategy and PlanTraders sold the Aussie like no tomorrow when the minutes of RBA's meeting indicated members expected another rate cut in November. We are worried about Australia's major trading partners ' economic slowdown; contraction in housing construction activity; outlook for consumption; wage growth; inflation; and domestic growth. Ultimately, the latest papers point out that when they meet next, RBA leaders will slash their rates in February. Trade tensions in the U.S .- China pressured crude oil prices and lead it to fall lower further. Also, Russia isn't inclined to cut production more deeply at the December 5 OPEC meeting and that means the market is likely to remain oversupplied in early-2020 . Carolyn A. Wilkins (Speech): The market is focusing on the line that there is 'room to maneuver'. Don't think she's sending a signal here but any time there is the talk of cuts (and QE), that's the knee-jerk. USD/CAD touched a session high of 1.3264 from 1.3230 before the comments and AUDCAD had an effect too. Canada also did not publish outstanding posts. Canada’s manufacturing sales took a step back in September. CPI reports (Nov 20), Poloz Speaks (Nov 21) and Retail Sales (Nov 22) will clearly provide additional optimism or pessimism hint to traders for the loonie. Positive turn in global risk sentiment may also help traders to think to get out of safe havens and into risk currencies like the Loonie. Flash manufacturing and services PMIs (Nov 21) from Australia should be taken care of. We should take this information in mind throughout the week if we trade in this cross pair or any Aussie or Loonie being as base or variable (counter).

Greenback Vs Yen (USD/JPY) Trade Strategy and Plan-Industries have not been hurt by the administration's trade actions. -There is no uncertainty with regard to trade worse. -The cost of doing nothing was killing us as a country. -China starting big agricultural buys if they don't make a deal with China they will substantially raise tariffs on China imports. -The situation between China and the US involves more conflict than the world has seen before, but eventually, we'll resolve it because this is the best way for both. -There will be a trade deal. -There will be one deal after another, and one issue after another will be resolved but it can take a lot of time. "They are dying to make a deal. We're the ones that are deciding whether or not we want to make a deal," Trump said of China. "We're close. A significant Phase One trade deal with China could happen. It could happen soon. But we will only accept a deal if it's good for the United States and our workers and our great companies."

GOLD: follow up week Feb 25thHi Guys, I've adjusted the periods of the SMAs by adding 50 to both. Price crossed the blue horizontal line and is encountering various supportive elements from a technical point of view. If it crosses back the blue horizontal line in the next 2 to 4 candlesticks I will set up short-term trades targetting the red line when it crosses the 103SMA. If it does not cross back the blue horizontal line within the next 2 to 4 hours I would set up short entries below the 451SMA targetting the green line.

GOLD vs USD/JPY: some ideasHi Guys, Looking for opportunities using inverted correlations between Gold and USD/JPY. The idea is that when US dollar weakens, money flows into safe heavens like Gold and Japanese Yen and this is why their moves are inversely correlated. In the above scenario Gold is temporarely topping at A because USD/JPY bottomed at 105 on Jan.3rd. For 2 weeks the precious metal ranged between 1298 and 1275 (support B). The fact that Gold is overtaking A means that Gold may be still looking to top higher than 1300. However Gold was supported at B therefore USD/JPY must be topping with a B too. This post is a follow up of an idea posted on Jan 11 and already updated on Jan 16 (links to related ideas below). Here is the link to the moves made by USD/JPY.

USD/JPY vs GOLD: some ideasHi Guys, Looking for opportunities using inverted correlations between Gold and USD/JPY. The idea is that when US dollar weakens, money flows into safe heavens like Gold and Japanese Yen and this is why their moves are inversely correlated. In the above scenario USD/JPY made a clear bottom at 105 on Jan the 3rd. The move has been so fast that economists labelled it a flash crash. Yes it was. But it was also the signal that USD/JPY was bottoming at 105. On the opposite, 1300 could have been a nice top in Gold. But Gold never got to 1300. It arrived at 1298. For 2 weeks the precious metal ranged between 1298 and 1275 (support B). The fact that Gold is now overtaking A means that Gold (in its process of topping) may be still looking for a top higher than 1300. Be careful that this does not mean that USD/JPY will go lower than 105. This post is a follow up of an idea posted on Jan 11 and already updated on Jan 16 (links to related ideas below). Here is the link to the moves made by USD/JPY.

In the above scenario, when the pair made A on Jan 3rd (a clear bottom), Gold made A (a potential top). Gold ranged between 1298 and 1275 for 2 weeks and now seems overtaking A looking for an A higher than 1300. Be careful that this does not mean that USD/JPY will go lower than 105 (Y). It just means that from B USD/JPY may come back a little bit. It depends if Gold moves higherr than 1300.

GOLD: missed signalHi Guys, today @ 14:00 GOLD made a canldestick that crossed both the 50 RSI and the bold horizontal line @ 1291.71. USD/JPY @ 14:00 was still below the same bold horizontal line @ 108.277. It crossed it approx.2 hours later. Maybe it was a good opportunity to short JPY for the same cross or just touch.
