Good morning everyone! January 23rd

Gold and silver are interesting today—both are eyeing the 5000 and 100 integer levels respectively.

Let's start with gold. Based on the K-line pattern and volume, it seems the first push to 5000 is just around the corner. My feeling is that it can break today. Following the usual breakout strategy, you can set a take-profit at 5020, and if there's a volume breakout, it’s safer to raise the target to 5050.

#贵金属黄金与白银刷新历史高位 For this move, I prefer to enter with low leverage. Once the integer level is broken, let it run; don’t rush to exit. The logic at this position is that once the trend starts, just sitting tight can earn you money. Traders with high leverage can operate like this—once 5000 is broken and hits 5020 or 5050, gradually take profits and exit, then re-enter below 5000, repeating this rhythm.

Now, let's look at silver $XAG. The chart pattern is pretty good, but the volume still seems a bit lacking. To push directly to the integer 100 might require several attempts to build momentum. I would first take some profits around 99, then wait for a pullback to 98 to re-enter. Do this a few times, and once the momentum is strong enough, it can break through. Low leverage holders don’t need to fuss—just hold and wait—often, this is more profitable than frequent trading.

From a big-picture perspective, the continuous central bank accumulation of gold signals that institutions have a clear view of precious metals. The current price is still relatively low historically. Once it stabilizes above 5000, we’ll see higher numbers. So instead of waiting to regret when it hits 10,000, it’s better to get on board now.
