The Monthly Charts Are Still A Concern For The Precious Metals

Cory
March 7, 2019

Although gold had a nice run there is still a concern that that monthly chart put in another lower high. What is even more concerning is the silver and GDX charts that are still in downtrends ever since the bounce in 2016. Jordan Roy-Byrne, Founder of The Daily Gold shares his thoughts on what the longer term charts are showing us.

    Looking at the 1 and 2 hour GLD and UUP charts, I don’t think your odds are great in the short term.

        JDST losses since yesterday’s open have reached almost 13%.

    /ES for me the question is does it retrace back to 2770 first before a move to support at 2710…..i think a bounce first…so, i sold my spxs….cash…this not an armagedon move and as such expect dip buyers along the way

    A bounce from here to 1360-70 would be better than just moving lower from here.
    I agree. lol

    Moving down from here all the way to the doldrums is not out of the question.

    Will feel better if we call it trading sideways or consolidation.

    Silvr, ugly,ugly,ugly….did jpmorgan get it wrong? or did they put the hoard together to keep everyone supplied? No shortage anywhere, everyone getting what they order.
    All demand supplied.

    Wont be long and asteroids and the moon will be mined, lots of supply on the market when that happens, endless supply to be honust.

      Mar 07, 2019 07:19 AM

      Think JPM can keep the derivative cost of mining silver on moon under $15?

    Think they can figure out or release the Tesla info? about energy.

    All Im getting at is the bugs keep going on about shortages etc, when investors should be simply looking at supply and demand.

    and ALL demand has is being met by available supply, has for the 15? years I’ve been following.
    Has is being supplied AT THESE PRICES.

    The bears don’t have much going for them when it comes to the weekly GDX chart:

      For all the handwringing that GDX and the miners are so weak, compared to Gold, it does look like miners just broke out of that descending wedge to the upside and are just consolidating here.

      Also, I’m not sure I followed Jordan’s analysis about gold also making lower highs. He used the $1392 peak from 2014 (?) which is important resistance for Gold to take out after teh 2016 high of $1377.50, but it isn’t how one should measure this breakout as a peak, since Gold didn’t bottom since Dec of 2015.

      Really since the Major low at $1045.40 Gold has been nowhere close that level again since then for 3 years but has been $200-$300 higher than that in a new uptrend.

      The lows have been higher each time, and the highs have been staggered. $1377.50, $1362, $1369. The recent high right around $1349 may not be the end of this run if we get the Spring fling rally.

      Even though he scoffs at Seasonality – it has been freakin’ textbook. Gold put in it’s low in early August at the end of the Summer Doldrums, rallied, then pulled back a bit for year end tax loss/Fed babble rate hikes, then powered up during the Q1 Run and now pulled back for the PDAC curse. This happens every single year, and is FAR more accurate than his analogs or overly complex analysis has been.

      Seasonality is a pattern that doesn’t have specific price targets, but it is the trading trend where the money flows go…. And it’s worked 5-6 years in a row (with 2016 being an outlier year for a few things because it was a sea change).

      Gold and Silver and the miners surge out of year end weakness into Q1 strength, then pullback right before or after PDAC in late Feb / early March, then rally again before pausing sideways to down in the Summer Doldrums.

      We very well may have one leg higher in the PMs after this corrective move to gather more strength plays out over the next few weeks. I’m looking to late March – early May as a window where Gold could have enough juice to make a run at that key resistance at $1377.50 (the 2016 high).

      Gold has continued to bump it’s head on the ceiling, but since Dec 2015 it has been in an uptrend, with higher lows, and nowhere close to a downtrend. This isn’t rocket science but you do have to read a chart correctly, and bringing in 2014 numbers during the bear market to make a case the metals have been in a downtrend all this time is simply wrong.

      One starts to measure the new impulse leg higher at a Major low — in this case, Dec of 2015. That is where the bear market in Gold from 2011 to 2015 ends, and the new bull begins. The initial impulse leg higher in the 2016 surge took out many key prior peaks and key moving averages & trend-lines, and rallied through the PDAC curse and summer doldrums, proving it was a new bull market starting.

        On Feb. 28 when gold was around 1320, I said that the worst case was probably 1280.
        It bottomed at 1280.80 yesterday…

          Looking more and more like a correction of an overbought condition that has now run it’s course.

          Mar 08, 2019 08:18 AM

          Looking good. What about SILJ?

    Nice jobs number this morning. 20K actual versus 180K estimate. Gold and Silver are flying. It will be interesting to see the open.
