January platinum climbed back to it’s highest level since November 22nd to settle at 1684.00.  A nice rally on the coattails of gold and silver but still a long way from the November 9th high of $1809.80 and the April 26th high of 1760.40.  Until the April high is breached again I remain skeptical of higher platinum prices.  The next short term resistance level is $1730 with support at $1628.
