Summary

Gold/GLD: gold printed a new cycle low of $1721. Next big support are the $1660s.

Silver/SLV: silver printed $18.63, not helped by the shaky main market, or the broadly strong dollar. I’d keep in mind the March 2020 $11s.

GDX: miners are sig’ lower, not helped by gold/silver.

notable miner: GOLD

Barrick Gold powerfully lower… breaking a new multi-year low. Any further main market downside isn’t going to help.

The micro chop continues.
Cyclically… we’re on the low side.
Best guess… early Wed’ downside, but then whipsawing upward.
