Gold Price Futures (GC) Technical Analysis – July 16, 2018 Forecast
Based on the early trade, the direction of the August Comex Gold market today is likely to be determined by trader reaction to the steep downtrending Gann angle at $1246.90. Holding inside Friday’s range of $1236.20 to $1248.50 will indicate investor indecision and impending volatility.

Oil Price Fundamental Weekly Forecast – IEA Warning, Labor Issues in Norway, Iraq Could Be Supportive
The markets appear to have found support late last week after Wednesday’s steep sell-off. The warning by the IEA seems to have slowed down the selling and perhaps brought in a few new buyers. The IEA statement is likely to continue to underpin the markets while the news of labor disputes in Norway and Iraq is likely to attract new buyers. Any surprise announcements about increased supply could limit gains or even drive prices through last week’s lows. For example, an end to the strikes in Norway and Iraq could be the catalysts for such a move.

Market Realist•3 days agoDoes Speculative Positioning Imply that Gold’s Bottom Is Near?
The CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission) reports the position of major players in the futures market through its COT (Commitment of Traders) report. According to the COT report for the week ended June 26, 2018, money managers were barely net long on gold with just over 4,000 net speculative long contracts. According to Commerzbank, “Short positions, in particular, were built up, which means speculative financial investors are currently betting heavily on falling prices.” For the week ended June 3, money managers kept their positions almost unchanged, which implies the lowest levels of net long positioning since late 2015 when gold prices dipped below $1,050 per ounce.
