Gold vs. oil: Which should bounce first?

金價和油價都在低位, 但是否兩樣都值得買呢 ?

文章說, 因為太多人睇好油價, 所以油價還有得跌, 而金價已超賣, 所以應該在調整時買入黃金 !

1200 好有可能已是底位 !

After the sharp drop in gold and oil, you may be inclined to think both are buys. But they're not.
According to analysis from Carley Garner, a colleague of Jim Cramer's at RealMoney.com as well as the author of "A Trader's First Book on Commodities", only pullbacks in gold are buyable. She thinks the path of least resistance in oil remains lower.

Following is her analysis:

Crude Oil 

Looking at patterns in the charts of WTI, Garner sees several reasons for caution.
First Garner finds that the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's weekly commitments of traders report shows too many pros are bullish.
That may seem counterintuitive, but "Too many bulls spoil the pot," Cramer explained. "If too many pros are already long oil, then there's nobody left to buy it, which suggests upside is pretty much exhausted."
Also Garner says at 35, the Williams %R oscillator does not yet show that oil has been oversold. Although that's not necessarily bearish, it's not bullish either.

In addition, she notes that oil has sold-off in a somewhat orderly fashion. That may sound civilized but it's the erratic patterns created by panic that are more typical of a bottom.

On top of all that, Garner says, the seasonal factor works against energy bulls, historically oil makes a seasonal low in early December.

All told, Garner sees every reason for oil to drop more.

In the near-term Garner wouldn't be surprised to see WTI test $90, which she thinks may be a floor of support. And if it's not, she thinks oil could drop as low as $86 before it bounces.

"Too many bulls just isn't bullish," Cramer noted.

Gold

Gold bulls however, may have reason to celebrate. Garner says chart patterns look constructive for the precious metal.
Looking at the commitments of traders report from the CFTC, Garner notes that far fewer pros are long than the norm. That's bullish because it means there's room for byers.

Also, looking at the Williams % R oscillator, Garner sees signs that the precious metal is oversold.

In addition, she believes chart patterns in gold may signal a double bottom right around $1200, also a typically bullish pattern.
 
All told, Garner believes pullbacks in gold present opportunity. She thinks patterns from the summer could repeat themselves, therefore she believes it's reasonable for gold to rally significantly, up to $1,364 before it runs into any resistance. And Garner believes gold could advance beyond that.

"Holy smokes," said Cramer, "what a contrary, bold call."
