See what I mean about looking up?

I liked the geometric echos of the stairs and pathway. Later I noticed the optical illusion, similar to Escher's ascending-descending series.

TRONGSA TSHECHU

Trongsa, the sacred and temporal heart of the country is a two day journey from Thimphu. Situated in central Bhutan, it was once the seat of power over central and eastern regions. Both the first and second kings of Bhutan ruled the country from this ancient seat and it is customary for the crown prince to serve as the Trongsa Penlop (“governor”) prior to ascending the throne.

The dzong built in 1648, is a massive structure with many levels, sloping down the contours of the ridge upon which it is built. The dzong’s highly strategic position, on the only connecting route between Eastern and Western Bhutan allowed the Trongsa Penlop to control travel and trade in the country effectively placing him in command of the whole of the Central and Eastern regions of the country.

Of the many festivals held in various parts of Trongsa, the grandest is the three day annual Tshechu. This festival brings together people from all walks of life and falls sometime in the month of December. In addition to traditional mask dances, visitors can witness the unfurling of the sacred Thongdrol and receive blessings from high ranking monks. People also receive blessings from the sacred Nangtens that is opened during the last day of the Tshechu.

(This was originally posted around 11AM, so the SMAs are not reflective of today's move. Secondly, Bullish Percent end of day moved from 51% yesterday to 83% today. This is now in the overbought area. Although Tim may have shorted it perfectly today as it got near resistance, I would be of the mind to wait for it to lose 70 on the Bullish Percent before I shorted. This may be a more conservative approach.

By the way, I am not looking to short GLD.)

GLD current price is 80.75

Its on a daily PnF sell signal, but has had a 4 box buying reversal. It would need to get above 91.50 to go on a PnF buy signal.

Its on an hourly PnF buy signal, for a 3 box selling reversal it would need to reverse below 78.

Gap open overhead: 90.09 to 89.72

200 86.24 descending

Showing strength with the current price above the 5,10, 20 and 50SMAs

Precious Metals group performance: extremely poor. potential: extremely poor.

GLD performance: poor. GLD potential: average.

SLW is weakest issue in group.

ASA is strongest issue in group.

Supply/Demand: demand ascending

Relative Strength: RSI 2 (short term) is overbought

Momentum: Ascending; strong

Money Flow: Increasing. It is being accumulated.

Bullish Percent of the 20 stocks I follow is at 53%. Above 70, then losing 70 sometimes marks a reversal.

Good luck!

The 100m (approx) shaft takes about 50seconds to ascend/descend on the winch. Thoroughly brilliant but completely terrifying!
