Today's drop in gold is a gift in my opinion. My energy indicator was still negative this morning, so I did not buy yesterday's pullback. I am watching whether energy flows turn positive before buying. 

    With June contract's first notice date on 31st, I do not expect this dip to last long.  I see this as an attempt to rinse weak long hands without closing the contract at attractive prices to initiate delivery. The rumor has it that The Fed is stuck short and is unable to exit its short position. Today's rinse of longs serves that purpose for them to reduce their short exposure as much as others are willing to give.
