A Glimmer That It Could Glitter

Tonight’s installment is
presented by Marc Dupee. 


Gold has been marked down hard and has found support at
its 50-day moving average and at a key Fibonacci retracement. Look for a bounce
off support at these levels.

 has
sold off for four days. Although today’s NAPM shows we are still in a
manufacturing recession, look for a same-day Turtle Soup Buy reversal Monday at
the May 16, 74.75 low and a bounce up into the 76.50 area.

left a tail at a
one-year low with the low-tick of the day coinciding with a year-long down
trending channel. Look for the currency to test and trade back up into the gap
left from May 30.

still has visible signs of momentum: big gaps,
expansion bars and a visible up trend off the April 2 low. Look for long entry
on a pullback setup here and for strong support at .8340. 

As mentioned in the Futures Market Recap, the grains may be putting in a bottom, having exhibited signs that they could come off lows. Corn

 all gapped higher, a collective sign that the
bottom may be in place. Also, corn lodged back-to-back expansion bars and lapped
open its second straight day, very constructive. Two days ago, corn also had a
Turtle Soup Plus One Buy signal and left a tail at the contract low, a sign of
buyers stepping in at the low. (Corn finished up 6 at 198 3/4).
