Plz read my Friday commentary below first to get a feel 4 today!
Precious metals particularly Gold are very strong today.
XPTUSD is bucking the trend and bearish as it wants to trigger this bearish H&S. It may play out very soon. I will send out an alert. It has already retested so a break of the neckline could mean a swift move down before it's price will snap back bullish and play catch up with Gold. So you could ride it both ways....down and up.

SHORT - XPTUSD (H1) (5 Jun 2023)Intraday Trade - XPTUSD
In the Weekly Chart, price is coming from the Supply, and there is room to the opposing zone.
In the Daily Chart, wait for price to clear the D1 demand zone that is in the middle of the chart, before looking for selling opportunities in the lower timeframes i.e. H4. Intraday trades can be found in the H1 chart as well.
In the H4 chart, I am looking to SHORT within the H1 zone to make the risks smaller.
XPTUSD Possible short term bearish moveIn the monthly the price is testing a Supply zone. We could expect a move to the downside.
In the weekly the price is over extended. Also, the price is testing a supply zone which means that a possible move to the down side is coming
In the Daily the situation is the same. The price is over extended and rejecting a supply zone.
All the Higher time frame are in confluence for a bearish move.
Platinum to fall around 7%Like all PMs, Platinum is also under pressure and the last correction was very anemic and well caped in 960 zone.
At this moment XptUsd is sitting on support and I expect this to fall.
The next target for this fall could be 850 zone and only the price back above 960 would lift some weight from the selling side.
As in Gold&Siver's case, I'm strongly bearish Platinum also.
Platinum- Under 1k again?Since the low at 905 made on 20th September, Platinum has risen to a high around 1100. However, the rise is not impulsive and has drawn a rising wedge pattern on our daily chart.
Confirmation of the pattern comes with a break under 1050 and this can lead to a dive under 1k and to rising wedge target and the last low in 900 zone.
XPTUSD – bearish continuation …07 June, 2021While Gold had been rising, Platinum has been on a decline recently. It did make a multi-year high on 16 Feb but fell back right away. Recently it has been consolidating within a channel and on Thu last week , it broke out impulsively below it. Friday’s price action was choppy (check out H4 chart) and I see it like a pullback to the channel bottom. I anticipate a bearish continuation in this metal with targets located at $1128 and possibly $1000 area.
As always, watching the price action on a lower time frame before committing to a trade is advisable.

Platinum Top on the Way..Commercial producers in Platinum have been heavy sellers in the NYMEX contract lately. This action typically bodes poorly for Platinum prices shortly thereafter. Once the commercials get down to -50k contracts, this can be a good signal to short. Using this weeks "Eskom Power Shortage" news to open a new short position on the NYMEX PL contract.
In times passed, any news relating to a South African miner's strike or a Eskom Power issue typically results in a 2-3 day price jump which is short lived as the producers come in to sell it back down. Will add additional contracts every $10 higher. Profit target is when the commercials have covered contracts (or have delivered metal) back into the -20k range which likely means the $780 to $800 range.
We hit XPT with 944. What's next?After our successful plan last time and hit even more than we anticipated. So what now? Our short term plan is to have a small correction as low as 915. Then we go up again for the midterm. As Platinum is quite volatile, short term against the main trend is very risky so we refrain from entering it.
With low leverage, it can be tried like this:
Entry: 935
Stop: 944
Final target: 919.
Remember that the bigger time-frames signal us that it will surge but the likelihood of correction before moving up is pretty high.
PLATINUM/RAND (XPT/ZAR) 1-HOUR TIMEFRAME SHORTI will be selling the XPT/ZAR if prices breach below the R11 550 price. Currently, prices are moving in a downtrend, g=forming a series of lower highs and lower lows and bear flags. If we see the corrective structure being breached to the downside, we will get our confirmation for a short trade.
Seasonal Bearishness for Platinum Begins..Number of factors set to influence Platinum for the month of March:
- Double Top Resistance at $880
- RSI tag of +70 on the daily chart, momentum exhaustion
- Seasonal Bearishness starts end-Feb/early-March and completes until end-March/early-April
- Expiration of NYMEX April Futures Contracts, expected producer selling up until first notice day
- Continued excess supply concerns, secular low-prices, backlash on diesel emissions.
Short from $860, Take profit $770
XPT ShortXPT Short
- TVC:DXY strength warrants OANDA:XPTUSD bearish view
- Trend is negative
- Diminished price-volume support below 884
- Looking to short on confirmed support break(blue line on intraday chart
- Alternative thesis on TVC:DXY weakness, might see a jump off support and retrace to 906. Will look to long at that level.
XPT/USD - 500 Pips ShortXPT/USD is currently in a bearish free falling trend.
No retaliation has yet been met. We can expect it to continue further below until a strong support and consolidation is undergoing which would mark it's reversal point.
Risk management is an important pillar of trading succesfully.
Wish you all the best!
