PLEASE BOOKMARK THIS PAGE for easy access in the future. Monitor the Gold Bull Below is a very useful chart that allows you to monitor where gold is in its bull run. (Currently stage two or "2nd gear"). It will be updated at irregular intervals whenever new developments warrant an update. It is always helpful to keep things in perspective by looking at the long term. Gold investors often get emotional about the metal's ups and downs, which leads many to sell at the wrong time. Monitor members are able to avoid these pitfalls because they always know the full story. Back in December of 2007, the Dollar showed a peculiar hart pattern. It clearly traced out a "head and shoulders" formation, but the visually really compelling part was that its red 50-day moving average sliced right through its neckline on the chart. Based on that in conjunction with the all-important fundamentals, we predicted then that the dollar will suffer further deep losses. Below you can see what happened to the dollar after the euro slit its throat back in December: Here is an example of a misguided euro forecasting service that 'predicted' the euro would suffer a significant fall relative to the dollar in June of 2008: The June issue of The Monitor forecast the dollar to move in a trading band between 74 and 71 on the US Dollar Index chart. This is the dollar's actual June performance, in retrospect: This means the dollar fluctuated around a median value of $1.56 to the euro, which means the euro actually remained right around its May high, rather than falling off as the above euro forecast chart attempted to predict.
