miners lead up and down.
the big volume days in gold were to the upside. and since the decline has taken place volume has become less and less.
what i see is east indians have been out of the market and they are arguably the largest buyers in the world https://www.telegrap...nda/cid/1682331
so the price drift lower has been in force. every time there is an opportunity for the indian govt to prop up the sector they do just the opposite . so its difficult to get too optimistic here. but the point is , indian buyers are holding off purchases until the govt budget is announced on the 1st of feb. and they have been out of the market.
just as the gdx had a big volume outside day so has gold . breaking above it is the solution for the bullish case, if not then 1235 is 50% of the rally retracement
the tides are shifting but slowly .
the rally in the broad market has all the ear marks of a bear market rally. the biz leaders in davos are not cheery

ps in case you are wondering about the government shutdown congress voted to pay themselves while the government is shut. no other government workers will be paid. a government of the people by the people and for the people sounds great
