Yen and Gold : The Oddest Couple
As we all know Gold is Very strongly Co Related with the Yen for some reason . They are both going up since January this year
This is a chart I drew about 5 months ago at Yen 90 complete with that blue arrow
PO was Yen 100 ..a 50% retrace of the drop from 2011 to 2016
Wow…This was BANG on price and time..I am a freaking genius ?
Nah
BUT even though I am bullish on PMs..THIS Chart is a Huge Warning
IF that’s all the Yen has Got…100…then Gold has some heavy headwinds here
OTOH…The Yen has already broken thru that dotted uptrend line …This is different from the post below from PK showing the
Yen at resistance…Different Chart Platforms..different lines…hmmm
For you manipulation Affectionados out there..please open your mind and consider this chart
Are You saying the YEN is manipulated ?
The Forex (Yen) Market is probably 1000 times larger than the gold market…It MUST be manipulated for Gold to be manipulated too
So its the Japanese who are supressing Gold ?
Nah
Good post Fully- Yen sitting at 100.6650, gold creeping back up.
I suspect it’s the unwinding of carry trades at play, unwinding of USD trades back to borrowed Yen, Yen up, USD down, gold up. At some point gold will decouple from USD movements and move on it’s own trajectory.
I was not aware of how the Yen and Gold move in sync the correlation is almost 100%. Thanks for pointing it out to me.
Uncanny eh ?
