OK HERE GOES:
1. This looks similar to what I've been posting, but it's not.
2. The time frames are based on calendar time instead of arbitrary 3x3x3 and so on.
3. This is 1 hour bars, @ 23 bars a day (not 24 bc of the afternoon closing).
4. So the layers are: blue/23-red/115-dark gray/483-purple/1449.
5. That is day-week-month-3months
6. The intention is to see if I can get a different look if the basis is different.
7. And it's confirming a bearish outlook.
8. Analysis goes like this:
A-price action is similar to C-price action, in that the red is running up at the dark gray from below seemingly about to cross. That means that the weekly price regression is trying to rise above the monthly price regression (this has to be true if it's bullish). If it can't get above it, it's coming down, one way or another. At A, 1-month regression (dark gray) is high above 3-month regression (purple, you can't see it because it doesn't fit). But at C,1-month is under 3-month price and fighting to curve back up. Not only that each of the skinny purple lines represent about 1 week, separation from 1 month to 3 month, and all of them have topped except for 1. So that's saying if price goes sideways the next 10 days, the 3 month regression will top. That's really bearish in this situation.
So if price - which is about to cross the red line regression - gets past it, it will pull the red regressions (weekly) down. So weekly, would be leading monthly regressions down. This forces the 3 month to come down faster because monthly is already below it and the gap is growing.
At B is what a rally looks like: Blue leading red, leading grays, OVER the purple line. That means daily price leading weekly leading monthly and 3-month prices. Any strong rally, THAT IS THE DEFINITION whether you use LRC or EMA or whatever. LRC just works best.
Now for money flow. Through volume and price figures, you figure out the amount of money that is responsible for the differential in each time frame, and then plot it all out for all those regressions at the top. For this, EMA works best. So at A, red money flow was falling even before the price topped. At, B it gets ready first, and then busts up. This is because it does not seemed forced because red was already closed to gray. But note that gray money flow was already falling at that time. So the crossover caused the rally. Once it topped though, there must be more buying power or money flow coming in to keep red above gray (weekly flow above monthly flow) other wise that would be distribution and hence falling price.
At C is where we are at. Gray (monthly) price and money flow has already topped twice. Weekly money flow has topped twice too. All this is saying that it must take a much stronger amount of buying for this to keep going. And look at the blue money flow, it zigs and zags all the time. So unless MUCH STRONGER BUYING TAKES PLACE, standard volatility (or just regular price action) will force this back down. And gold is running out of time, less than two weeks says purple: 8 trading days.
