To demonstrate how the aforementioned anomalies are in fact Cartel
footprints, long-utilized strategies that best suit their purpose of CONTROLLING gold’s sharp rises and DAMPENING budding excitement when it periodically appears.
First, the times gold peaked each day – in military time - and then, the data separated into days that gold
rose, and days it
fell. During the first four months of 2012, gold is cumulatively up 5%. Of the 77 trading days, it has risen on 41 days and fallen on 36, with the average time of day that gold peaked being 8:58 AM EST, or 28 minutes into the COMEX trading session. Truly amazing how gold peaks each day
immediately after the world’s largest PAPER market commences trading, huh?
More telling is the peak times during “up days” versus “down days.” On the 41
up days, gold’s average peak time was 10:21 AM; what a coincidence, directly after the PM FIX, and with it, all PHYSICAL trading for the trading day.
Conversely, the average peak time on
down days was much earlier, at 7:27 AM EST, coinciding with commencement of New York “pre-market” trading. The 7:27 AM figure is an
average, but irrespective, nearly all peaks come early in the trading day. Corroborating Dmitri Speck’s data,
nine of this year’s 36 down days saw a peak at EXACTLY 3:00 AM, plus an additional
three within the London “pre-market” PAPER trading hours of 2:15 AM – 4:00 AM EST.
Of the remaining 24 down days, an astonishing
twelve experienced peak gold pricing within a half hour of the PM Fix at 10:00 AM EST, and another
four within a half hour of 12:00 PM EST, the “cap of last resort.” That leaves just
eight of the 36 down days NOT experiencing peak pricing at the Cartel’s three KEY ATTACK TIMES of 3:00 AM EST, 10:00 AM EST, and 12:00 PM EST. Lo and behold, Dmitri Speck’s
silver data from 1998-2010 is SPOT ON with
gold’s experience in 2012.
Notably, 30 of this year’s 77 trading days can be characterized as “Coat of Arms Days,” in which the familiar Cartel herald appeared – that is a whopping 39% of the time. This is their primary tool for preventing “froth,” and are particularly utilized at the aforementioned KEY ATTACK TIMES, especially when gold is nearing a KEY ROUND NUMBER, and essentially
always when approaching a 1% daily gain.
