Surely this time we will have a break through 60p, note how many times before its failed but this time we have a ascending triangle chart pattern supporting the case.
Slight resistance at 80p and then all the way up to 160p plus through the autumn and into next year?.

just to surprise you, i did actually buy a small quantity of these some time ago. added today, maybe a little prematurely but using money management to try to help keep me in without an overall loss. may or may not work.small and boring and adding makes for limited risk and big potential profit.
good luck to you.
regards

From todays Independant....
The newspaper revealed that Gulf Arab states, along with China, Russia, Japan and France, are planning to put an end to dollar-based trading in the oil market. The report suggests that the new basket of currencies may comprise of the yen, the yuan, the euro and gold.
Gold remained supported even after Saudi and Russian authorities denied the media reports, suggesting the market is still very bullish on the commodity. Analysts at Heritage West Futures told Bloomberg Television they believe the metal is likely to rise above $1,200 an ounce by year-end.

From Minesite:-
September 29, 2009
Cashed Up And Profitable, Highland Gold Is Looking To The Future With Confidence.
By Alastair Ford
HIGHLAND GOLD s latest set of financial results are fairly easy on the eye, given some of the ugly reports its had to make in the past, and bearing in mind the current strength in the gold price. Highland produced more gold at lower cost this time round, putting it on schedule to hit a total of between 155,000 ounces and 165,000 ounces this year. Putting out that sort of news must be especially gratifying for a company thats not been without its issues in the past. But memories of the troublesome Darasun mine have now almost completely faded, and the focus is now very much on production from the key Mnogovershinnoye gold mine (MNV) in the Khabarovsk region of Russias far east. At MNV, Highland produced just over 78,000 ounces in the six months to June 2009, an increase of around 14 per cent on the total produced during the comparable period in 2008. Total cash costs per ounce fell to US$514 from US$574 in 2008. That combination meant that sales during the period rose to nearly US$79 million, up from US$76.5 million a year ago, while operating profits rose to just over US$19 million, up from US$14 million.
It was a result that was partly driven by the strong gold price, and partly by continuing efforts to optimize plant and procedures, according to chief operating officer Brent Horochuck. MNV is now a mine that might be described these days, as long in the tooth, having been first brought into operation in 1991. Over the years its proved its worth, but plant is ageing, and a lot of the activity that Brent calls fine-tuning at MNV involves replacing ageing bits of kit. That process has generated some cost saving, and may yet deliver more, though Brent is fairly that for the full year this year at least, costs will be steady at around the US$500 mark.
So, having hit first half production targets, the mine is going strong, and July and August have also been up to speed. Going into winter, when blustery snow conditions often make maintaining operations at full capacity real challenge, this year the company will be supported by an increased stockpile, created partly as the higher gold price has rendered what was formerly designated as waste ore economic. The big variable, of course, remains diesel - setting the price of that remains well outside Highlands jurisdiction, nothwithstanding that oil and gas oligarch Roman Abramovich is a cornerstone investor in the company. Even so, with gold bumping around at a spot US$1,000 an ounce, theres plenty of room for manoeuvre.
And Highlands not been shy about adding ounces. The latest big hit comes from the Taseevskoye deposit in the Chita region, where the state regulator has just signed off on a new resource of just under 3.4 million ounces at an average grade of 5.22 grammes per tonne. As Brent Horochuk says, its a monster! Slightly further behind, but potentially even more exciting, is Unkurtash in Kyrgyzstan, where Highland reckons it might have a five million ounce deposit on its hands. Thats not yet been independently verified, but roll in the additional 820,000 ounces just booked at Belaya Gora, also in Khabarovsk, and the 1.6 million ounces at Lyubov in Chita, and Highland begins to pack a real punch in terms of its resource base. MNV also has at least a million ounces ahead of it, and plans to drill up the neighbouring Pebble region look set to add yet more. Nice to be booking all of that, in an era of US$1,000 gold.
But the next cab of the rank will be the polymetallic Novoshirokinskoye, referred to in company literature and by directors as Novo for short. Novos now operated by Kazzinc, and was, for a while, a casualty of the credit crunch. But a decision in July of this year to restart development has meant that commissioning is now due for October, with plans to ratchet output up to between 400,000 tonnes and 450,000 tonnes initially, although it may eventually go as high as 550,000 tonnes, according to Brent Horochuk. Although its a sizeable project, the production currently envisaged of between 45,000 and 50,000 ounces of gold per year, with roughly the same again in equivalents, means that for now Novo wont be leapfrogging MNV as Highlands flagship project. Especially since not all of the production is attributable to the company anyway. But, says Dmitry Yakushkin, Highlands communications director, what the start up at Novo will show is that the company can be work more than just one mine, that it can keep to its commitments and keep the regional authorities in side, and that, in general terms, it has the ability to grow.
On that last point, its worth bearing in mind the companys cash pile of around slightly less than US$295 million. Much of that is earmarked towards the acquisition of near-term production projects in the region. The companys past may be chequered, but as a cashed-up profitable gold miner on the hunt for deals, its future looks a lot more straightforward. Itll be interesting to see what the rest of the year has in store.

The intraday high for HGM last September was 82p, so we are only really looking for an end of day close above this level to trigger a big upside move. There is little in the way of resistance between 82p and 150p on the daily chart.
