Here is the monthly GLD chart (ETF for Gold). The pattern forming appears to be a Head and Shoulders bottom where the Head formed at the 2016 low. The right should appear near completion and testing the “Neckline.” For confirmation of a Head and Shoulders bottom, a “Sign of Strength” through the “Neckline” is needed. A “Sign of Strength” is a high-volume wide price spread through the “Neckline” price. Looking at the monthly price volume from the low in November 2018, the market has been up four months in a row (green bars), which shows strength. GLD could hesitate near current prices, but a surge in strength should commence in the coming weeks to confirm the Head and Shoulders bottom. The top window is the monthly RSI for GLD; readings above 50 suggest GLD is in an uptrend. The current reading is 57.31. Long GDX on 1/29/19 at 21.97.
