On July 9th I wrote a post suggesting gold was now preparing for a longer term bullish run with initial targets of $1826, $1840 and $1875 per ounce, and I’m delighted to say the first two of these have already been breached. You can read my analysis here.

Yesterday was a key one for the precious metal closing as it did with a wide spread up candle on excellent volume and confirming price and volume are in agreement and therefore we can conclude the big operators are participating in the move higher as we trade at $1850 per ounce at the time of writing. This price action was also significant as it confirmed the break from the congestion which had been building around the $1800 to $1810 per ounce area and is now presenting a solid platform of support. Equally important is the fact we are now approaching a low volume node on the volume point of control histogram which takes us up to $1870 per ounce which is the next target. Progress through here should be straightforward given this lack of volume resistance. Note also the Quantum Trend monitor indicator continues to remain firmly blue throughout, and with the weakness in the US dollar giving the metal additional help, a move through $1900 per ounce is now on the horizon.
