Im also rather puzzled, perhaps one of the many factors that India, the biggest importer of gold has stopped imorting it. Also, Gold ETF also down - are investors starting to look for riskier places for the money and pulling out of the safe haven?

Head and shoulders on gold. Also broke its bull trendline. I think we could see it below $800 in the near future.

look for a double touch on 800, ZAR to 7.50, USD Index to 92 (possibly) and a disconnect with US Markets. A stronger ZAR and a stronger USD will make for a fast and hard drop in our markets but it won't last. The rally ain't over, but I'd be real careful because there could be massive over reaction to this. I reckon we'll only see a market top out end or Apr maybe even June

likely to run up now,trouble now is for how long,markets are churning at the moment....not likely to breach the thousand dollar mark at theis stage.OMO

Gents, the selloff has the potential to be violent! Gold demand is almost 50% driven by ETF's (compared to significantly less in previous years). Fundamentaly, IMO, ETF demand driven prices are dangerous. At least jewelry demand can be clasified as buy-to-hold, nobody is going to sell their jewels just because of a price drop. Now what happens with leveraged instruments when prices drop? Stops kick in! And worse than that, the ETF dumps the physical, which creates more supply, and a vicious circle kicks in. Gold has potential to fall to 750 again, IMO
