Platinum is the one to buy and hold for yearsI've been bullish platinum for a long time now, but breakouts from such long-term ranges take time. We've seen similar shapes in crude oil and in copper, both of which have broken out. I started discussing the upcoming crude oil breakout on Twitter in 2019 already, and I've been doing the same for platinum. In time, we will surpass the all-time highs, which isn't strange considering that platinum can be used as an industrial metal to support the electrification trend.
Don't expect this to breakout tomorrow. It could take until 2024, but I'm very confident that it will be a matter of time. In the short term, I am looking for a drop by possibly as much as 3-5%, which is when I will start adding to my existing position. A critical level is $1,040 and it seems likely that we will see a test of that level before we head back to the current levels. On a side note: platinum looks like it will be outperforming gold in the coming years. The gold/platinum chart is an interesting one to look at.
PS: Please disregard the RSI indicator here, it wasn't supposed to be shown.
