GDX UPDATE

 

GDX 15-MONTH CHART: If GDX stays above $33.00 in September, I see the potential for a Double Bottom (March/August 2021). An advance above $40.00 would confirm a bullish breakout and support new highs in 2022.

 

GDX 8-MONTH CHART: Ending the week above $33.00 would be bullish. However, stiff resistance lies just ahead at $34.25 and then again near $37.00. Sustained upside may prove difficult without a significant increase in investment demand. I think as confidence wanes, gold should begin to respond positively.

On the Downside: Closing below today’s $32.50 gap anytime next week would be bearish and could trigger additional downside.
