Gold Price Forecast – The November Breakdown
Gold futures are breaking lower after last Friday's better than expected employment data and today's stable ISM nonmanufacturing index. Our forecast for a November breakdown appears to be underway.
Gold tends to form interim highs or lows in the opening days of a new month. In my Thursday Report to members, I wrote, "The next potential turning point could arrive tomorrow, November 1st, or early next week." See blue arrows in the chart below.
- May 2nd
- July 1st
- August 1st
- September 4th
- October 1st
- November 1st?
The recent decline supports a top on November 1st. My primary gold forecast calls for a 6-month low by late November or early December. Potential target - approximately $1400 (+/- $20).
Technical Perspective
After the initial ABC correction from the September high, gold entered a month-long triangle consolidation in October. The current pattern appears complete. A close below last Wednesday's $1483.10 low would support a C-wave decline towards $1400 to complete the larger corrective design. If things go as planned, prices could bottom in the opening days of December.
Longer-term, I believe gold prices are in a new bull market, and prices are heading much higher.
