Thank you, Mr Ben Bernank

Well, what a pleasant surprise The Bernank threw our way this morning, and just in time. The LBMA goons had attacked and the stage was set for a nasty Monday. Instead, we got a rally and growing confidence that the bottom is definitely "in" for gold, and probably silver, too.

Saturday Gold and Silver Summary

Saturday, March 24, 2012 at 12:31 pm

I've found a couple of things for your weekend, so I thought it best to start this new thread. Mainly, I had to make sure that everyone saw the latest OI numbers and CoT report.

I'm Late, I'm Late, I'm Late!!

I'm know I'm overdue. I'm really in a stew.

Party Likes It's 2009

Thursday, March 22, 2012 at 10:53 am

I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but I've been having a strange feeling of deja vu and I couldn't seem to place it. I was standing there this morning, making some coffee, when it hit me. This is late 2009 all over again. If you were trading and stacking back then, I'm sure you'll recall that painful period. If not, let me give you a little refresher.

Turd's Index of Traffic and Sentiment

Everyone knows by now that I use a lot of acronyms. In this case, however, I'm choosing not to because I don't want to mess up all of my search engine metrics.

Keep Watching The Bond Market

The past week has seen some rather sharp selloffs in the U.S. treasury market. Is "Operation Twist" failing? Will we soon see a resumption of overt quantitative easing?

Monday Evening Charts

Monday, March 19, 2012 at 5:02 pm

I thought I would start a new thread with some fresh charts. Today's action in the metals was helpful but it appears that we still have some work to do before we can get excited about a rebound.

Gold and Silver Looking To Bottom Soon

The Turd is back in the saddle and ready for another crazy week.

TFMR Podcast #15 - Trader Dan Norcini

Friday, March 16, 2012 at 8:18 am

Yesterday, I had the distinct pleasure of visiting with "Trader" Dan Norcini. Dan is a independent, professional trader. This means he makes his living off of being able to nimbly move into and out of positions, in the end consistently generating enough profits that Mrs. Norcini doesn't make him get a regular job!

Dan has a wealth of experience which he freely shares with all Turdites in this podcast. I strongly encourage you to make the time to listen.

Open Thread

The Turd is going to be out all day today as I am leaving shortly to make a trek to an NCAA basketball tournament site. Lots of the usual noise this morning but nothing earth-shattering so I leave this thread open in the confidence that everyone will behave themselves and always observe site rule #7.

The metals were once again raided at 3:00 am EDT. Let's see if we can build some FULBMAs today and set the stage for a price rebound next week.   TF
