How to read this page: Each card states three computed facts — price relative to its 50- and 200-day moving averages (the conventional trend yardsticks), the past 30 days' trading range and where today sits inside it, and the 14-day Relative Strength Index (a standard momentum gauge, 0–100). These figures describe where each market is; they say nothing about where it is going, and neither do we. Gold Mornings is an educational publication — nothing here is financial, investment, tax, or legal advice.
