COT UPDATE: Commercial hedgers added 26,746 shorts last week bringing their total net short position to a record setting -345,145 contracts. Generally, I like to see shorts cut in half before I start looking for the next 6-month low. To shave off 172,000 contracts will take several weeks, and we may get a false bottom or two as gold works down these positions. 

BACKTEST POSSIBLE: The June breakout in gold above $1400 confirmed a new bull market. However, the record number of outstanding shorts is concerning and could trigger a backtest of the $1360 – $1380 breakout level in Q4 of 2019. If established, that may become one of the last great buying opportunities
