Commodities Spread Trading, 21 Dec 07
Gold remains stuck at $800 having attempted to move lower yesterday on the dollar strength. Today the greenback weakness has given the bulls another reason to buy and so the $791 (big support) wins out once more.
Commodities Spread Trading, 20 Dec 07
Gold remains around the $800 level as trading in the precious metals also slows up in line with other markets. The gold spread this morning is $800.0-$800.5 down a buck but in very light business. Other precious metals are also slightly lower this morning.
Crude Oil was up a dollar yesterday and added slightly to that this morning. However February Brent Crude remains in the low $90’s where we have been for a while now.

Commodities Spread Trading, 19 Dec 07
Platinum prices sit just below their record price and so gold benefited from a bullish move yesterday and overnight. With global growth driven by China and India still on the up, bulls of precious metals remain positive that higher prices can be achieved. They believe the demand for platinum in particular will only increase. $850 in gold remains a big target for bulls. However it seems just as the elusive $100 mark for crude oil. It’s clearly a big psychological level. US oil inventories are released at 15h30 London time today.
Commodities Spread Trading, 18 Dec 07
Gold is still sitting on the support level at $791. If we do not get a rally soon the probability that traders will have a look at what might happen if we force the price below $788 will increase. The yellow metal is being attacked on two fronts. The dollar strength and the cost of short term funds. Recent Longs are sitting on losses and they are costing quite a bit to hold.
Brent Crude Oil (Feb) is stuck around the low $90s and as mentioned yesterday we are stuck in the horns of dilemma. There appears to be tons of the stuff in the system which could quickly push prices down to the $60...or the political or environmental situation could deteriorate swiftly which could see a spike to the el dorado of $100. The current Oil spread is $91.79-$91.84 up $0.35 this morning but nothing dramatic.

Commodities Spread Trading, 17 Dec 07
Gold is clinging onto the support mentioned over the past few messages at $791 with the dollar rally having caught a few bulls the wrong way round. Our Capital Spreads accounts remain long but in times past have been buyers into falls. This time the acquisition on weakness seems to be less than enthusiastic but has not yet actually fallen into outright bear mode. The possibility of an end to the current bull phase is getting stronger and the charts are now showing signs of a more neutral outlook. Of course the cost of Gold longs is now so high that, without the certainty of further price gains, there is a chance of sellers taking the reins.
Crude Oil is managing to cling on above $90 in the face of continued assurances that we have enough of the black stuff sloshing around. The problem at the moment is that we have prices at these highs when everything seems quite relaxed across the globe. I am no great believer in the $100 plus story but it would only take a seriously cold winter or some political conflict for the bulls to get a head of steam once more. It’s difficult to call which way it will go. The bear argument would have us down at $60 and the bull up at $110. Probably why we cannot move at all at the moment!
Commodities Spread Trading, 14 Dec 07
Gold bounced neatly off the support level mentioned yesterday at $791 and is now back above $800 having had something of a fainting fit in afternoon action yesterday. Bulls were caught out by the fall and we saw some long cuts going on rather than the normal buying on weakness. Is this a sign that the weak money has been driven out over the past weeks action and we can therefore begin the move higher again? Or, given that our Financial Spreads Accounts have consistently called the gold market correctly this year, is this a potential end to the current bull cycle?
Commodities Spread Trading, 13 Dec 07
Spread Trading Gold had another good day, yawn, which will probably turn into a bad day today... or whatever. The market is slowly turning bullish again having looked a bit peaky recently with a series of higher lows in recent days. There is now very good support below $800 at $788 to $792 and Capital Spreads clients will be hoping that a platform is being prepared for renewed attack on the highs. Today is almost unchanged on yesterday and so far the trading range has seemed very contained.
Commodities Spread Trading, 12 Dec 07
Gold rejected the $813 level and resistance was sighted at $811. It is a little higher this morning on the back of nervy European indices, but clients remain bullish.
Crude Oil has made its third attempt at getting back above the $90 mark in the last 4 trading sessions but still remains range bound. A range of $86.50 to $90.10. Once broken either side could lead to a sharp move up or down.

Commodities Spread Trading, 11 Dec 07
A big move up above the $800 mark from gold last night further fuelled investor expectation of more rate cuts ahead after today. Clients continue to remain long and be attracted by the allure of the precious metal. This morning trade is thin and the price is hovering around $809, a little higher than last night's close. Investec in Australia also remain very bullish saying that they believe global liquidity pressures will push gold another $20 or even $30 higher by the end of the year. Resistance is seen at $811.
After another volatile session for oil yesterday it is higher this morning. Warmer weather conditions in the US and fears of an economic slowdown depressed prices yesterday. Nevertheless Asian traders have seen this as a buying opportunity.
Commodities Spread Trading, 10 Dec 07
Gold is a little higher this morning, back above the $800 level and recovered from Friday's fall. Traders expect it to remain range bound ahead of the Fed's decision tomorrow. Financial Spreads clients remain bullish in the belief that it won't be long before we make another attempt at the $850 mark, but with physical demand dropping back a little, it may be a while before this happens, if at all.
Oil is continuing its slide following on from Friday's good job number. There is already talk of many of the institutions and hedge funds flattening their exposure to oil ahead of the Christmas holidays and year end.
Commodities Spread Trading, 7 Dec 07
So far gold is trading lower as investors are reluctant to stick their necks out ahead of today's data. Dips continue to attract clients into further long positions. Gold has been remarkably volatile and while there's been a halt the ever increasing price a support areas seem to be in place around $790.
