Gold has been the big winner, with oil second, and the S&P & NASDAQ are under their 1999 and 2000 marks.

But you're right – if the market finds a peak soon, odds favor gold and oil to pullback in sympathy due to recent correlations.

Me too. At my evening research session the other night, we spent a great deal of time looking at monthly charts and it hit me how much I don't take the time to look at those and how important they are.

It just takes a moment but it's so easy for us who focus on 5-min and 1-min charts to forget to do so!
