Summary

Gold/GLD: gold printed the $1902s, clearly helped by further dollar cooling. The break >psy'1900 is significant, and offers a challenge of the recent key high of the $1966s. Any price action above that would be decisive, and provisionally confirm what is a multi-month bull flag.

Silver/SLV: silver printed $26.31, helped by a positive main market, but also the cooler dollar. Like gold, multi-month price structure is a bull flag. Having printed the $29s this past summer, next big target is the 35/37 zone.
 
GDX: miners are powering upward with gold/silver. Soft target are the $38s. Things turn decisive >42.00.

notable miner: GOLD


Barrick Gold is higher with the sector. Things turn decisive with >$26s.
