Based upon the current action in gold and gold stocks it appears likely that gold will continue to form a major rally. The daily chart pattern has the appearance of an inverse head and shoulders that has yet to break the neck line. From a time cycle and chart structure standpoint, it appears to me that the breakout is close at hand.
I do have a bias here in that I have call options on silver as previously stated on the blog here. My expectation is that metals will continue higher for the rest of this month. I feel that there was and is still a quality chance for an excess of 100% return on call options prior to expiration. But for some added time for things to unfold, I think a March or April call option would be sensible as well.
A break in the metals above the December highs could be a technical chart point of recognition resulting in either a failed breakout, or in my expectation, a continuation of the uptrend.
