That junction is on the “EL”, or Elevated commuter trains (Subway above) that serves the “L” or Loop district in downtown Chicago. As you can tell from the tight turns, these commuter cars are specially built for this service. A normal passenger train could not make these curves.

That’s a cool shot. I wonder if I have been through that junction; took a few trains to Chicago in my life.

I don’t think I trust Ole much. 😉
And this year’s award for the best comedy line goes to…………..
Ole Hansen, for his line “With physical demand slowing it remains up to the banks and “paper” investors to provide the support for prices to move higher”
Line is from King World News current item titled ‘The Gold Market Needs a December Surprise’. Astounding. Where do you get such insights, Ole? Way to go, King World News !
“China Trade Deal”??
To me it should mean a new Dollar Yuan peg rig. Instead of the 40 year old slightly flexible $1 to 7 Yuan, it should be $1 to 2 Yuan. To make imports too expensive and our exports or products a lot cheaper. On top of that China needs to raise their domestic corporate tax rate to 35%.
Those two things together, domestic China businesses would have two choices. Go bankrupt or move off shore to the USA. That is what happened to the USA 40 some years ago. China also needs very strict air and water pollution laws to drive businesses away from China. The USA has to and seems to, be easing up on those regulations.
When all this pro China pro big business give away started 45 years ago, nobody told us anything about a “trade war” starting, and that we were “programmed” to lose it. Thank God for the 2008 financial crash.
Most of our prosperity lately is more psychological than real. Low interest rate Real estate gains, and stock market gains, and many many tax payer funded, and environment funded fake jobs.

Glad to hear the TA is looking positive for us. As you say would be nicer without the fiat monkeys deluging us with paper every time we lift our heads up.
and one time it will be different
PS Looking forward to 2020!
ipso facto
If we end the month @ here, then we will have done a nice A-B-C hesitation, for a 4th wave down in Gold, time and price would then allow another run higher for a 5th wave.
But will the scum allow it and we have the problem of the massive scum short in the CoT’s….but TA is looking good.

BRUSSELS (Reuters) – Turkey is refusing to back a NATO defense plan for the Baltics and Poland until the alliance offers Ankara more political support for its fight against Kurdish YPG militia in northern Syria, four senior alliance sources said.
Newmont sells Red Lake Complex
Nov 26 (Reuters) – Australia’s Evolution Mining Ltd on Tuesday agreed to buy Canadian gold mining complex Red Lake from Newmont Goldcorp Corp for $375 million in cash.
Evolution also agreed to pay an additional $100 million upon new resource discovery at the mine.
“Red Lake is an under-capitalised asset which, through a committed investment in development and exploration, is intended to become a cornerstone asset in the Evolution portfolio,” said Jake Klein, Evolution’s executive chairman.
Newmont said in a statement that the sale was part of its efforts to streamline its asset base.

“Fruit Of The Poisonous Tree” – FISA Alterations Could Pose Significant Trouble For FBI
“Based on what we know, Clinesmith’s tampering of documents appears to have been significant enough to have played a role in the FISA courts decision to grant a warrant to spy on an American, maybe more than one American,” said a U.S. official, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter.
“There is concern among the FBI that all the evidence will come into question, as it should – particularly the case of the ‘fruit of the poisonous tree’ that the evidence itself is tainted – if that’s true than anything gained from that evidence might also be tainted. This could be a problem for anyone who approved the FISA as well.”
