“Beauty is In the Eye of the Beholder” ..English Proverb

Tonight I want to show you a long term monthly chart for the HUI. It seems there is alot of disbelief that if a H&S pattern is too big that it some how makes it invalid or not to be trusted. I’m curious how that rumor ever got started? Nothing could be further from the truth IMHO.

Below is a monthly chart of the HUI that shows a massive 6 year inverse, complex H&S base, that launched the bull market for the precious metals stocks back in 2001. There is a certain beauty that 6 year H&S base has that most wouldn’t recognize. If you look on each side of the Head you will see two chart patterns, one large blue formation and one small red formation. They are positioned just the opposite on each side of the head. This doesn’t change the time component as the left and right shoulders measures out very close to each other. At the very top of the chart you can see what that big 6 year H&S based measured to. As you can see it measured up to 690 which was just a tad higher than the actual all time high.

The Chartology of the entire chart is one of beauty and symmetry which some will see and others won’t. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What do you see?

Your HUI Analysis has been Stunning !

Even I…The self acclaimed worlds worst trader…. have been doing incredibly well riding these

breakouts (nervous breakdowns as you call them ) in the Gold Mine Sector

Appreciative emails from Subscribers are pouring in

and You are so right…we don’t see analysis like this anywhere else on the Planet !

Kudos to all you subscribers (who are mostly goldbugs) who had the conviction to go into DUST

DGLD and or DSLV !

Now what ?

Stay tuned to Rambus Chartology !

Below is a chart for the HUI that shows all the patterns since this downtrend began at the September 2012 high. Today it broke below the latest small consolidation pattern the little red flat top triangle. Today marks the start of the 3rd impulse leg down since the 2012 top. The first one was the breakout of the black 5 point bearish falling wedge. The second impulse leg down was the breakout of the blue slightly expanding bear flag. And today is the start of the 3rd impulse leg down on the breakout of the red flat top. The reason your seeing a big move is because its a breakout. Notice the breakout gap this morning. This is what one likes to see when you have a completed pattern. It tells you the consolidation period is over. I can guarantee you won’t see this type of analysis or these chart patterns anywhere else on the planet except here at Rambus Chartology.

I was planning on doing the Wednesday Report on Platinum and Palladium tonight but there is some deterioration taking place on some of the precious metals stocks that needs to be addressed. I’ve been waiting patiently for a couple of the really big caps to start showing some weakness. I believe the biggest cap precious metals stocks have been hiding the retreat that has been going on in some of the lesser precious metals stocks, giving hope that a bottom is close at hand, if one just looks at the big cap pm stocks. I’ve gotten several e mails from angry gold bugs that tell me I have it completely backwards and that the precious metals stock indexes are putting in a triple bottom. I got another one that told me these H&S top patterns, that I’ve been showing you, are too big to be valid.  The amount of denial is still pretty strong among the staunch gold bugs. But that’s not what’s important. What’s important is what are the charts showing us regardless of what some folks may think.

First lets look at ABX as it’s the biggest of the big cap precious metals stocks. How it goes so goes the rest of the PM complex. Below is a daily chart that shows ABX has broken out of a bear flag and has completed the backtest move. You would have to go all the way back to August of last year to see a lower closing price vs today’s closing price.

We have to look at the weekly chart to put the daily look into perspective. The placement of the bear flag on the daily chart above is very important as its forming just above the big neckline. That little bear flag may have enough energy to move the price of ABX below the big neckline.

The long term monthly look at the H&S top. Note the multi year base that lead to the bull market in ABX.

GG is another big cap precious metals stocks that is showing some deterioration on the daily chart. After completing a H&S top last fall GG has been building out a 6 point blue diamond consolidation pattern just below the neckline. Today’s move backtested the bottom blue rail before selling off for the rest of the day.

The weekly chart shows the all important neckline, that comes in at the 32.50 area, as the bulls last line of defense that needs to hold.

The monthly look at GG is interesting because of where the H&S top is forming.  As you can see on the chart below there is an uptrend channel that has been in place since 1998 or so. If the H&S top plays out that means the big multi year uptrend channel will be broken to the downside. Also seeing a massive H&S reversal pattern sitting on top of the long term uptrend channel should give even the most bullish bulls a reason to reflect on what maybe possible if the H&S plays out. Keep in mind I’m only the messenger.

Lets now take a look at a weekly bar chart for NEM that is showing a massive H&S top pattern. This chart shows the neckline symmetry rail, parallel neckline rail,  that showed us where to look for a possible top to the right shoulder. You can also see the 4 touches, of the big neckline, in the area of the right shoulder so we know that neckline is hot and to be respected. If it gives way it will reverse it’s role and act as resistance on any backtest.

The monthly look shows our H&S top that is almost exactly the same height as the H&S top that formed just to the left.

Lets look at one more chart for NEM that is a weekly line chart. As you can see on the chart below it has been testing the breakout point of it’s big H&S top pattern. So far nothing definitive but it looks like the neckline is being backtested from below.

As I have shown you on the charts above the biggest of the big cap precious metals stocks have yet to really break below their respective necklines. Now I would like to show you some other precious metals stocks that have already broken below important topping patterns while the big caps are running interference, taking the investors eye off the ball.

AU has been trading below it’s big neckline for 6 weeks or so and has completed a backtest to the 30 area.

The AU monthly look shows the double H&S top.

BVN has been trading below its massive H&S top for 3 weeks now.

All the reversal patterns have not been of the H&S variety. Below is a 60 minute chart of FNV that shows a 5 point rectangle as it’s reversal pattern. Notice the smaller H&S pattern that formed on the backtest to the bottom blue rail of the 5 point rectangle. That’s an impressive backtest leaving no doubt that the bottom blue rail is HOT.

The daily chart shows how its reversing symmetry down as shown by the black dashed horizontal trendline that started off the September 2012 low. I could make a case for a H&S top using last September’s high and our current backtest high as a left and right shoulder.

Again we have to look at the long term chart to put everything into perspective. As you can see FNV has been in a nice tight uptrend channel since 2009. It looks like at a minimum that the bottom rail of the uptrend channel will be tested at some point in the future.

The Randgold weekly chart is showing a 5 point flat bottom expanding triangle as it’s potential topping pattern. It still has a ways to go yet but the small H&S top pattern that has formed at point #5 should get the price back down to the blue horizontal trendline.

KGC is probably one of the weakest big cap pm stocks as it’s fast approaching the 2008 low. You can see it’s reversal pattern was a 5 point bearish falling wedge. Note the failure of the double bottom hump, on the far right hand side of the chart, to hold support. The reason it failed is because of the 5 point red triangle that reversed the small uptrend.

SA shows us a 7 point diamond reversal pattern that broke down in April of 2011. It now looks like it has just created a blue bear flag that broke down about 3 weeks ago.

The AUY daily chart shows a H&S top that broke down in December of last year followed by the red rectangle that has formed just below the neckline. Its now 3 days into the breakout phase of the red rectangle.

The weekly chart shows why the H&S top, on the daily chart above, is so critical to the overall bearish picture. The H&S top has formed at the top of a 7 point rising wedge. A break of the bottom blue rail of the rising wedge will complete a very bearish picture for AUY. If you own this stock keep a close eye on the bottom rail and act accordingly it it breaks down.

I could go on and show you more bearish charts for the big cap precious metals stocks but its getting late and I think you get the picture. Folks this article doesn’t take into account the small cap precious metals stocks that have been vastly under performing the big caps. The real carnage is in the small caps right now. If you are holding any then you will know what I mean.

As I stated earlier I’m just the messenger and have no axe to grind with the precious metals crowd as I have been following this sector since the spring of 2002. I wish I could be showing you some big reversal patterns to the upside but that’s not what the charts are showing. There is no bell that rings when a top or bottom is in place. There is only hard work in understating what the charts are telling us if we can keep an open mind. All the best…Rambus

This trade is just for those subscribers that know what they’re doing and have the experience to buy puts or have the ability to sell short. You can use the chart below as your guide. What you do is up to you.

After breaking down out of the bearish rising wedge CDE has been forming an expanding triangle consolidation pattern. The price action is sitting right on the bottom blue rail as we speak. The minimum price objective is to the 15.92 area which is close to the previous lows made back in July and August of last year.

I like to use this chart when I want to know how the HUI is doing compared the the stock markets. It clearly shows that sometimes the HUI is outperforming the SPX in a big way and sometimes the SPX is outperforming the HUI, yellow shaded areas, and sometimes they move together. I would like to focus your attention to the right side of the chart that shows the blue shaded area. The blue shaded area shows how the HUI and the SPX has decoupled starting in November of 2012. How long this divergence goes on is anybodies guess. But it is what it is until it changes.

Lets look at a couple of ratio chart that shows something may be brewing when we compare gold to the COMPQ or the SPX. First lets look at the Gold to COMPQ ratio that is showing that the COMPQ has been outperforming gold for over a year now. There is a potential unbalanced double top in place where the double top trendline is being tested right here and now. You can see gold strongly outperformed the COMPQ during the first 9 years or so before the ratio put in it’s first peak in 2009. It formed a second peak that was slightly higher than the first peak but there was a very large negative divergence on the RSI and MACD indicators. Is this chart now suggesting that it might be time for the stock markets to start outperforming gold in a big way if the double top comes to fruition?

Lets look at the gold to SPX ratio chart that is showing a very similar pattern to the ratio chart above. Here I’m using a line chart that shows the ratio is breaking down from the unbalanced double top. You can see the beautiful inverse H&S bottom that was made back in late 1990’s and early 2000’s that launched the outperformance of gold to the stock markets. Keep in mind a big base leads to a big bull market and a big top leads to a big bear market which this ratio chart clearly shows. Also note the big negative divergences on the RSI and the MACD indicators. The question that has to be asked is the bull market that gold has enjoyed since 2000 compared to the stock markets coming to an end? Stay tuned as things are starting to get interesting.

Below is a combo chart I use to track the HUI and gold as they build out their consolidation patterns. As you can see they generally form the same type of consolidation patterns that breakout at the sametime. Even though gold has performed much stronger than the HUI they still tend to build out the same type of consolidation patterns. Note the two H&S top patterns that formed in 2011, yellow shaded area. They both broke below their respective necklines about the same time, blue shaded area. As you can see they both then broke back above their necklines for a short period of time that looked like the original H&S tops were invalidated. The pink shaded area shows what I now call a bull trap. That little move above the necklines sucked in alot of bulls at the time including me. But once the price action broke below the necklines again the trap was set. Those that have held on hoping for a significant rally are getting further and further in the hole. As you can see on the HUI chart on top, it had one last backtest from below that told us that neckline was still HOT and in play. The price action has been drifting slowly down from that last backtest. If the HUI and gold can ever trade back above those necklines that would be a very bullish setup but until then caution is warranted.

Below is weekly linear scale line chart for the HUI. What this chart is showing us is that the price action in the HUI is now testing the big neckline this week. I expect alot of chopping around this general area before the real move lower begins. A fight between the bulls and the bears may get brutal at times with some inter day spikes in both directions. Ultimately the bears should win the war when the neckline is divisively broken to the downside as the last bulls will finally retreat to lower ground and setup a new line of support. Notice the H&S price objective that comes in at the 2008 crash low at 169.95. The actual low was about 150 on a bar chart.

The exact same chart above only in bar form. Notice how the price action is now in contact with the big neckline. This is a big deal IMHO.

GDX weekly linear scale line chart.

Below is the same chart above only in bar form. It to is now just testing the big neckline.

The weekly line chart for the XAU that looks like the HUI and GDX. .

XAU weekly bar chart is the exact same chart above showing the initial contact with the big neckline.

The easiest and hardest thing trading this decline, once it starts, will be to ride the trend lower without getting kicked off. Easiest in that you don’t have to do anything but stay in your position. The hardest because it will be very difficult to ride out the volatility. When you look at the charts above it looks easy to ride the move down to the H&S price objectives but when your living through it it’s an altogether different thing. Once below the necklines the volatility will increase dramatically where there could easily be a 100 point swing in the HUI. I expect to see at least one good consolidation pattern form that may show up halfway down to the price objects. Another possibility is there could be a series 2 or 3 smaller consolidation patterns form before the bottom is reached. Its time when one has to get mentally ready for what could be the ride of a lifetime if things work out as expected. The big money will be made by those that can stay with the trend and not panic every time there is a rally. Easier said than done.
