The lowest risk place to buy a rallying market is the bottom of Wave 2.
It's not safe to buy tumbling toward the bottom, where the first wave up begins. Wherever you buy, you have no signal that it won't drop further. Even after it has bottomed & begun to climb, there's little indication it won't collapse to a lower low.
Ahh, but once that climb peaks (Top of Wave 1 up), the market corrects in Wave 2 down. AFTER that Wave 2 bottoms you have the very lowest risk place to buy, because when Wave 2 bottoms and turns up into Wave 3 up, it proves that it isn't aiming for a lower low than where Wave 1 up began.
Looking at the gold chart, Wave 1 up began on 17 December 2015 at the $1,046.80 intraday low. It topped at an intraday high of $1,306.00 on 2 May, & began dropping in Wave 2 down. If (if, note) I am correctly identifying that as Wave 2's bottom, then right now gold and silver are at the lowest risk buy points. They have just finished posting a bottom to Wave 2, and next come what is usually the strongest, wildest leg of a rally, Wave 3 up. Remember, however, both may move sideways through the next two months before they begin rallying in earnest.
This explains why I am so strongly recommending buying metals right now.
But, of course, I could be wrong.
Buttressing the case for a low in the gold and silver correction are platinum, http://schrts.co/tSKBZW and Palladium, http://schrts.co/xqRb5m
Both dropped steadily into January lows, both climbed strongly off that low, both as May opened. Drawing trading channels up from those lows, both have not touched back to their bottom boundaries. From there both have moved higher, and should move higher still.
Silver & gold are hanging fire at the 50 day moving averages. Today on Comex gold backed off a measly twenty cents to $1,244.40 while silver lost 5.1¢ to 1637.7¢.
Drawing a new (blue dashed) downtrend line for silver, chart looks like this, http://schrts.co/xqRb5m
Silver trampolined off its lower channel boundary up to its 50 & 20 day moving averages, which now coincide roughly with the downtrend line from 1 May. Tomorrow that line stands at 1649¢ so silver needs to close above that to improve Friday's gain.
Cramped into a small ($12.10) range today, gold couldn't go forward but refused to go back. Tomorrow the downtrend line from the 1 May high stands at $1262. Gold must punch through that 50 DMA & move higher or squander its gains from last Friday.
Sort of like heroin addiction, the stock market works until it doesn't. Dow today added 17.95 (0.1%) to 17,938.28. S&P500 made another high close for 2016 at 2,112.13, up 2.72 or 0.13%. Not sure where it's going, but I don't want a ride.
US dollar index tossed back another 6 basis points today to land at 93.83. Can't get any traction. Down below keep an eye on 92.50, which for a year has served as the bottom range boundary. If the dollar stumbled through that, it would be fatal.
Remember that summer historically is a low season for precious metals, slow and quiet usually. Only upcoming event that might change that is Brexit. If the British vote to leave the EU, the euro & pound sterling will tank and gold and the dollar should soar.
SPECIAL OFFERS
Here are two Special Offers, based on spot gold at $1,244.40 & spot silver at $16.377
SPECIAL OFFER No. 1: SWISS TWENTY FRANCS
When Napoleon Bonaparte took over France, he publicly burned the engraving plates that had been used to print the Revolution's inflationary paper money, and said, "I will pay cash or pay nothing." To his credit, he established a gold & silver money & never resorted to paper.
On his 90% fine (21.6 karat) 20 franc coin containing 0.1867 tr. Oz. gold, was founded the Latin Monetary Union. All the nations who joined that union minted their gold coins to the same standard: French 20 francs, Swiss 20 francs, Belgian 20 francs, Italian 20 Lira, Greek 20 drachmai, Serbia, Bulgaria, Albania, and on and on.
20 Franc coins remain among the most popular and common in the world, traded all over the globe. I have sixteen lots of ten each SWISS 20 francs, the "Helvetia." I am offering them at $246.00 each, a 5.9% premium over their gold content, based on spot gold at $1,244.40
One lot contains Ten (10) Twenty franc gold coins at $246.00 each or a total of $2,460.00, plus $35 shipping for a total of $2,495. I have only 16 lots, and, YES, you may order multiple lots. Offer good only while supply lasts.
Ordering multiple lots? We charge shipping only once. The last order filled will include One (1) Belgian or French 20 francs & 19 Swiss.
OFFER NO. 2, GOLD KRUGERRAND
The clever South Africans revolutionized the gold coin world when in 1967 they introduced their Krugerrands, 22 karat (91-2/3% pure gold) containing exactly one ounce of fine gold. It took the world by storm.
Today Krugerrands are $15 - $25 cheaper than American Eagles, minted to exactly the same specifications but with a different impress.
I have six lots of five coins each at $1,293.00 each (a 3.9% premium), or $6,465.00 per five coin lot, plus $35 shipping for a total of $6,500.
Ordering multiple lots? We charge shipping only once.

WARNING AND DISCLAIMER. Be advised and warned:
Do NOT use these commentaries to trade futures contracts. I don't intend them for that or write them with that short term trading outlook. I write them for long-term investors in physical metals. Take them as entertainment, but not as a timing service for futures.
NOR do I recommend investing in gold or silver Exchange Trade Funds (ETFs). Those are NOT physical metal and I fear one day one or another may go up in smoke. Unless you can breathe smoke, stay away. Call me paranoid, but the surviving rabbit is wary of traps.
NOR do I recommend trading futures options or other leveraged paper gold and silver products. These are not for the inexperienced.
NOR do I recommend buying gold and silver on margin or with debt.
What DO I recommend? Physical gold and silver coins and bars in your own hands.
One final warning: NEVER insert a 747 Jumbo Jet up your nose.
