November is the Month to Take Advantage of Gold’s Seasonality Trend – Here’s Why (2K Views)

For precious metals investors, understanding seasonality can help to determine when to buy and sell at optimal price points. Analysts often mention gold’s seasonality and refer to the “Summer doldrums” as a buying opportunity and the Winter months as the high season. To verify gold’s seasonality and identify opportunities to profit from the trends, I decided to update the data and charts that I had originally created a few years ago. [Take a look.] Words: 295

So says Jason Hamlin (www.goldstockbull.com) in edited excerpts from his original article* entitled Gold Seasonality Chart Shows November as Strongest Month.

Hamlin goes on to say, in part:

The new chart below has some variations from the past, but the overall trends remain mostly the same.

 

Gold seasonality

The Winter months remain the strongest seasonal period for gold, particularly November through February.  The Summer months tend to be the weakest seasonal period for gold, with the month of June showing the only average decline.  May and September are anomalies, when the gold price tends to advance strongly during these months, but not in the immediate month before or after.

Here is the chart in bar format as some prefer…

Gold Seasonality Bars

Heading into the first full week of November, the charts suggest that investors can expect the gold price to advance sharply this month and continue higher through February of next year.  This is partly due to gold dowries for marriages in India, as this period is considered a lucky time of the year to get married.

…Gold is about to undergo a  profit-taking event…as a result of the USD beginning a rally, probably beginning today. I’m looking for the dollar index to test  the downward sloping 200 day moving average [see chart below] before rolling over and  continuing the secular trend. This should drive gold down into a  final intermediate degree bottom around $1694 or so before testing the all-time highs at  or slightly above $1900 sometime before the end of the year.

Gold could become very bullish once it breaks through the upper horizontal resistance line at $1,800/ozt. Likewise for silver once it breaks through $36. Once these prices are surpassed the HUI should also take off. Check out my technical analysis below for details.
