Rally in Gold At Risk of Toppy RSI

GOLD TECHS
  • Tuesday's rally in gold puts the metal at the best levels since January and within striking distance of the key psychological $1900 mark. A break through here opens next key resistance at the Jan 8 high of $1917.6.
  • Despite recent strength, the market is beginning to show signs that gold could be overbought, with the RSI today edging above 75 for the first time since August.
  • The broad RSI strategy (Long when crosses above 30, Short when drops below 70) appears to be on the cusp of switching to a sell signal for gold for the first time since Jan 7th.
  • This strategy has been one of the most profitable of the past 12 months, and January's sell signal presaged a $200/oz drop in gold:
