The $1088-$1090 is a key center of gravity. Price broke out above $1090 to begin the year but has since faded back below and ended last week exactly on it. I am of the opinion that the next $30+ directional move in gold will give us powerful information as to the next $100-$200 move.

Meanwhile, gold in emerging market and Canadian dollar currency terms remains quite strong:
