AS OF THE CLOSE OF Tue. Sep. 6, 2016: We should see a trend change come September in NY Gold Nearest Futures so pay attention to events ahead. Last month produced a low at 130690 and so far we are trading neutral within last month’s trading range of 136970 to 130690. We need to breakout of this range to confirm the direction. Therefore, a close above will be bullish and a close below will warn of a possible decline.

Since the high of 136970 established on Tuesday August 2nd, we have declined into a low at 130550 created on Thursday September 1st overall for 22 days electing in the process 4 Daily Bearish Reversals. The low formed at 130550 is still within technical channel support which rest down at 125250.
Consequently, this market has bounced from that low established the past 3 days trading sidways. We elected the three Daily Bullish Reversals from that low at 130550. We need to focus on overhead resistance at 135810 on a closing basis. A closing above this number will imply a further rally briefly. Failure to achieve such a closing warns of a retest of support.
