A Higher Low for NZD Gold?

Gold in New Zealand dollars looks like it has made a higher low this past week. After back filling the gap up move, it has now boosted higher by 2.5% in the past 7 days.

So it’s looking more and more likely that a bottom is in and major wave (C) up has now begun.

NZD Silver Also a Higher Low?

Silver in NZ dollars was up a little under 4% for the past week. It too looks to have made a higher low after holding above the horizontal support line at $34. Now we are on the lookout for silver to get above the 50 day moving average (MA) at $36.64.

NZD Bouncing Back 1% After Recent Plunge

After the recent plunge, the New Zealand dollar is up 1% from 7 days ago. However it is still sharply below the rising uptrend line. Now we wait to see if the uptrend is over or is this just a higher low?

How Much is All the Gold in the World Worth?

Gold or Silver? Buy Higher or Lower?

Here’s another question from a new reader…

It might be worth having a read of this article: Should I Buy Gold or Silver in 2020? 7 Factors to Consider in Gold vs Silver

Although it was last updated in October it still reads pretty well now.

The gold to silver ratio mentioned there is now down into the mid 60’s. So it has just entered the range where we personally think it’s good to get a bit of both.

As far as when to buy, then yes, ideally buy when the price is lower rather than higher. Even more ideally buy when the price has bottomed out and is beginning to move higher. Of course the trouble here is we don’t really know this until after the fact. But if you’ve been reading our daily alerts (sign up here if you don’t already receive them), you’ll see we think the odds are pretty good that gold has recently bottomed out.

So in our opinion now is likely a good long term buying opportunity. But we don’t give advice, just share our opinions – for what that is worth!

If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines waiting to buy, then now is likely a lower risk time to purchase gold and silver. As the charts at the start of today’s update show, it’s likely that both metals have recently bottomed out.

Please get in touch if you’d like a no obligation quote to see how the buying process works.
