Each of these Chaos Clinics is in my blog on the home page at Moneytide.com On the top chart these comments are marked by yellow up arrows.
On that chart, there are two channels. The first one looked like a nice orderly 1-2-3-4-5. Them came the sharp spike low at X. I traced the cause of this to two close natal transits. After that a new, steeper channel formed. Just as the top of these two channels crossed, GLD rocketted higher. I traced this to Mars transit the natal Moon. What a launch!
The bottom chart shows the longer term pattern in GLD, updated from the 02/08/2019 Chaos Clinic. It continues to suggest that GLD will continue up into mid 2022. A channel drawn by lines 3 and 4 suggests a 240 target. The steep slope of the recent move, however, suggests a possible scale jump, a property of chaotic systems. This move up could become a non-linear growth curve, which could exceed the top of the linear channel shown.
