'the manipulators logically will try to hold the line on gold this week, to protect their huge short positions. If they are unable to keep it flat this week, for whatever reason, it could be an excellent clue that they are having manipulating and control problems for some reason'

One could suggest that they are struggling so far :)

Music to the ears. If GATA's and the Ted Bulters etc of this world are right, and I believe they are, the removal of such large, concentrated and manipulative positions on the sell side would leave a vaccum above whatever the current price at the time is. I mean who is going to come along and take their place? The buy side will be just as strong or more likely stronger and the sell side will be greatly reduced. Like up to the tune of 75+% in the silver market (on the COMEX)

Watch out above if thats the case
