Please, note-We are still holding our short position both in gold (entered at $1530) and silver (entered at $19) as we could witness the very severe breakdown within the precious metal sector in the upcoming days and months which would ultimately make our positions more profitable..we are warning you from months however if you would still like to enter short, silver is providing a good entry-level at the moment to enter short which is still valid.
Update-In order to secure our profit We have moved our stop loss in Gold at $1503 and In silver at $18.(New report will be published soon)

There are positive news coming out for the Gold bulls which includes comments from President Trump Tuesday, when he said the U.S. could slap more trade tariffs on China.we can't confirm however some reports are emerging out of China where they demand to lift all of the tariffs put on by the U.S administration otherwise no trade deal will be finalized .U.S. housing data from October has also been released where we have seen Disappointing U.S. housing starts data which rose at 3.8% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.314 million units and building permits data, was up 5.0% at 1.461 million. one needs to keep in mind that building permits data, is a precursor to future projects and much crucial to look at compared to Housing starts data as it Showed us the amount of application filed by the wanted buyer.

The gold commercial COT report slightly improved but is still significantly bearish. The silver commercial COT is also leaning towards the bearish bias. Silver is currently trading at around $17 and there is strong support resides at $16.20 but a break below the mentioned level especially the $16 could drag the prices much lower. The white metal needs to break above $17.50 in order to be somewhat in a strong and bullish position however we believe that silver is providing a great opportunity at the moment to enter short.we are anticipating a major breakdown in silver prices.
