IMG , I AM GOLD

On Jan 27, a ventured a guess where this stock might go. As you know, I believe that both the bulls and the bears have good arguments, but sofar if the bull argument is correct, why is gold not already at $3000+ ?, after all the financial world almost came to an end etc.etc. So, when I venture a prediction I do so very hesitatingly. Here is the Jan 27 chart;

and where we are now;

The stock did not actually fall to $12, but did reach $13+. From that point it goes nowhere, which is potentially bullish ( remember, do not sell a dull market ). This congestion/consolidation pattern may well be a triangle. If so the stock should drop in wave e, but not below $16 (unless the triangle gets even bigger) . Then there should be an explosive thrust worth  about $10. So the game plan should be to buy at ,say , $17. Stop-loss at $16 and wait with odds 10 to 1 in your favour. As the time frame is fairly clear- the top should be reached in 6 months time at the most, options can be used here as well. Similar but slightly different consolidation patterns, some much longer, can be seen in ABX , G and the XAU. Kinross K is a bit of an exception having gone down most of the time. Good luck.
