thanks for that
actually, i am begining to wonder whether this 'pivotal moment' might drag on for a bit longer, perhaps 2-3 weeks. looking at the USDX again and throwing in silver for good measure, you could argue that the usdx is 'caught' in tight wedge and may not break free from there for a fortnight or so. Interestingly, ag is bouncing off the 4hr resistance trendline, seemingly awaiting gold and the $ to make up their minds.
Of course, this could also be a load of codswallop, but like Roy Walker says on Catchphrase "Say what you see"
