An oil price shock followed by a turn towards alternative energy sources?

Since mid-2012 the alt-energy(GEX) sector is outperforming the classic (oil) energy sector(XLE)




















Also the conventional energy sector (XLE) is in all time highs with declining volume and the RSI is over 70 (is getting overbought).It seems it is approaching a top.




















On the other hand alternative energy will probably form a nice cup and handle basing pattern (volume pattern seems to confirm this also)





















Whats next?We believe that a handle will be formed towards 45 and then a bullish run towards 75-80, 100, 120.

Search Result

TLT (20+ years treasury bond ETF) has already made a golden cross (21 week exp.moving average crossed 55 week exp.moving average) after hitting a double bottom last year.

Next target for Gold 1200$ where it should bounce.



















Next target for GDX 20,7$

Silver is now sitting on a critical support at ~18,75$.If silver break down through that support then it will move initially towards 16$

Bullish Bonds update

Both 10 year treasury note(UST) and 30 year treasury bond have broke out from their respective reversal patterns(Diamond for UST and IHS for USB as we have noticed here: http://goldenopportunitytrading.blogspot.co.uk/2014/05/bullish-treasuries.html) and are probably in a medium term bullish run.

Tick Tock...The Value Line Geometric Index (XVG) clock is ticking for SPX

As SP500 (SPX) is moving towards new highs since mid 2013












, Value Line Geometric Index (XVG) (here is a definition of this index from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value_Line_Composite_Index) hit a long term resistance of previous highs (1998, 2007) and bounced.











The last time there was such a divergence between SPX and XVG was during 1998-2000 when XVG topped out in mid-1998 and SPX almost 2 years later in mid-2000.  



















Is XVG going to break out from this multiyear resistance and follow SPX or is XVG going far south dragging SPX with it?

We believe that XVG already topped out and the clock is ticking for the end of the SPX bull run from 2009.Though for how long will SPX diverge from XVG is difficult to tell...

Palladium Cycles...Does history rhyme?

Palladium ( 30% of palladium supply comes from Russia) is about to hit a resistance line (both in Dollar and in Gold terms). 

Palladium in Dollar terms



















Palladium in Gold terms



















We can clearly see a cycle price pattern for palladium(in gold ounces)

If Palladium manages to break through the resistance then we may see much higher prices like 1998-2001 (observe the similarity between green and orange rectangles)

Gold Update

Gold is probably ready to break up or down from the triangle that is forming from early April. Weekly RSI(14) is near its uptrend support. Trading triangles is a bit tricky as they tend to break out to one direction and then reverse and resume to the opposite direction...

Bullish Latin America? An Update

Recently (http://goldenopportunitytrading.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/emergening-markets-latin-america.html) we showed a few charts of Latin America ETFs. Especially in Peru (EPU) we showed a possible bottoming diamond pattern that has now broken to the upside





















Also Brazil (EWZ) seems to break out from its falling wedge





















And Mexico (EWW) from a triangle formation (although a triangle formation break out frequently ends to reverse and move the opposite way)




















So altogether: Bullish Latin America...

Bullish Treasuries

10 Year Treasury Note:Possible diamond pattern(we believe that in this case it is a medium term bottom pattern)




















30 Year Treasury Bond:Probably has formed an inverted head and shoulders and know is crossing the neckline(thin black line) and 55 weak Exp Moving Average.




















Inflation Protected Treasuries (TIP):Has formed an ascending (bullish) triangle and recently broke up decisively. Probably it will move towards 119$
