April platinum settled down $57.00 today at $1786.30.  It has clearly breached a 3-month intermediate trend support line at about $1800.  If it doesn’t get back above $1800 the next support level is $1760.  With gold and especially silver rallying like mad today’s session seems like a gold-to-platinum ratio adjustment.  If gold can hold on to $1400 the rally could continue.  I’m expecting a sharp but short-lived correction in gold, which has already started in platinum. 

Look at any dips to lower prices as buying opportunities.  In April gold $1380 is pivotal while the buying opportunity in April platinum is right here.  $1760 would be even better.
