"this week is typical for the past several years and the worst should be over by tomorrow"

I agree completely. There is a lot of drama, so this is likely the last big shake out for some time. We have gold backtesting the neck line from which it broke out end of January (support 1640-45), we have the USD index testing that 80.4 level and we have the HUI (IMO only temprarily) breaking down below the 496 support. All big, big drama before a reverse.

What intrigues me is what Jim Sinclair told us a few weeks ago, when he wrote the following cryptic words:

"1. What is going to happen is going to take place in March somewhere between the 14th and 20th in all probability."

Could this be the moment big money is going to move into our sector?
