Summary

*I would keep in mind multi-month price structure IS a bull flag in gold, silver, and the related miners. Silver has seen a provisional confirmation, but is struggling via the dollar and any weakness in the main market.

Gold/GLD: gold swung from the 1889s to 1864s, partly pressured by the morning upside reversal in the dollar. A 2020 settlement >psy’1900 would be useful… preferably >1966s.

Silver/SLV: silver swung $26.82 to 25.35, pressured by the main market and the higher dollar.

GDX: miners lower for a third day, pressured by gold/silver and the main market. For now… we still have a provisional floor from $33.08.

notable miner: NEM

Newmont lower with the sector, pressured by gold/silver.

Equities: sp’60min

S/t momentum is ticking upward, and in the process of turning positive. Upper hourly bollinger will be major resistance… currently around 3725… but 3710s soon.
