Gold remained elevated for much of this spring, but trading became “heavy”.
In trading terms, that’s when price stalls out in a consolidation pattern but fails to see big buying days. It then topples over on its own weight.
Today’s chart takes a look at an intermediate-term glimpse of the Gold ETF (GLD). As usual, I let the visual do the talking… while explaining why our favorite glitter could use a refresh.

$GLD Gold ETF “weekly” Chart
As you can see, the Gold ETF (GLD) rose into April/May before stalling out. The weekly chart now has churned sideways-to-lower for 10+ weeks. And the latest move below the 10-week moving average suggests that a refresh may be in order. Moreover, I think that a quick flush would be bullish for bulls as price is still elevated and it could renew its move upward. Watch the 40-week moving average for support if we see a quick move lower…
