***Das ist zu hoffen. FĂĽr einen upmove spricht zudem eine seltene 5fache Bull-Divergenz im Gold-Chart (die haben explosiven Charakter) sowie das close ĂĽber einem ID/NR4-Tag nach einem intraday false breakout.

***Wenn man darauf wetten möchte, empfehle ich einen 280er Dez. 00 Comex Gold Call. Derzeit zu haben für 1,5 USD. Steigt Gold"nur" auf 295, so ist die Option 15 USD im Geld (=1000% Gewinn). Reward-Risk Ratio wäre bei 50:50 Chance auf eine (kleine) Squeeze 10:1.
GruĂź + happy squeezing,
