what you're witnessing is US dollar hegemony in play. the power to turn on and OFF the spigot when the Fed wants. the only way to play this is thinking like a criminal and picking out extremes in sentiment as well as chart parabolas. there would be no greater satisfaction to Ben and the bankers then to smash gold to smithereens right here, right now. and they have the power to do it.
i think the top is in. the ferociousness of todays selloff on HIGH volume, not only on the futures and GLD but especially on the double inverse short DZZ is screaming "LOOK OUT".
at this point i don't think silver clears the April high. until it does, my opinion won't change.
