GLD is clearly in a correction!
Please allow me to elaborate more on an earlier article on "GLD Current Correction" on December 8, 2020. Just some thoughts on GLD SPDR Gold Trust Gold Shares NPV current correction, GLD probed the new high price of $194.20 (as of market close on Aug 3, 2020, per the weekly chart). The weekly chart of GLD SPDR Gold Trust Gold Shares NPV shows the security is currently in a correction. The correction started on Aug 3, 2020, to Friday, December 11, 2020, per the weekly chart.
According to The Elliott Wave Principle, the principle tells us that five waves move in the direction of the main trend, and three waves that will follow that is a correction. I have marked the three phases of the current correction for GLD SPDR Gold Trust Gold Shares NPV with A B C. The current bullish trendline is also marked with a green linear line.
Previously, I mentioned that if the price plunge below the major bullish trendline around $165.65, then there is a higher probability for a further correction. Why? One of the reason is because of human psychology. If that happens in the future, bears are more likely to feel more confident and will short sell this security more. Please note I just one to mention the subject of human psychology. There are many more reasons.
Previously, I also mentioned that the current volume is low. Volume is low according to the weekly chart. I also mentioned that this security may retest the previous price level of $183.69. That is a possibility. Included is the MACD Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator. To summarize, MACD Moving Average Convergence Divergence is a trend-following momentum indicator. The weekly chart is showing the indicator MACD at a major point. Will MACD reverse the current trend or continue lower? This is a big discussion and I think I will save that for sometime later.
To summarize, GLD is clearly in a correction phase! MACD Moving Average Convergence Divergence is at a major stage. Will GLD resume the current uptrend or will the current correction continue further? That is up to the market's final decision and let leave that for another discussion and many further interpretations.
