Platinum and palladium have been holding their value better than gold.  Gold made its highest close since the January 28 low of $1309 at $1364.  We’ve seen forty bucks taken off of gold one session many times but taking the market at its word it looks bullish.  April platinum closed $17.70 higher at $1861.90.  There is very little resistance until $1950.  The metals are going higher, especially palladium.
