Gold on Track for Higher Highs in October ’25… and Ultimately into 2027??

08-20-25 – “It is often beneficial to review & reinforce critical principles of trading and cycles.  Some of those principles involve the interplay between subsequent facets of a Cycle Progression and/or the interplay between larger phases and smaller phases of related cycles.  Currently, Gold is providing a good example of these relationships between corroborating cycles.

From a much broader perspective, the cyclic outlook for Gold has remained constant for over a year.  It was projected to rally into late-October ’24 and set a multi-month top during that phase of its recurring 27 – 28-week & overriding 54 – 59-week cycle & Cycle Progression.

It did exactly that.

That led to a quick correction into mid-November ’24 that held key support levels and triggered a new (bullish) weekly trend signal.

That was projected to generate a new multi-month rally – forecast to peak in late-April/early-May ’25 (the ensuing phase of that same 27 – 28-week Cycle Progression) and enter a larger correction.

Gold obliged and peaked on April 22nd.

That would, and did, turn focus to late-Oct/early-Nov ’25 (greater synergy in Nov ’25) – when a subsequent high was/is considered likely during the next phase of both the 27 – 28-week AND the 54 – 59-week Cycle Progression.

That remains the case.

Ideally, Gold would not turn its weekly trend down during the intervening correction.  (If it did, that would alter where, but not if or when, the next high is most likely.)  Presently, the earliest it would have its first chance of doing that would be on August 29th… but that is a fluid situation – warranting ongoing updates….

Another related principle is wave symmetry. 

On a longer-term basis, Gold could/would fulfill a collection of corroborating wave symmetry examples if it extended its overall advance into 2027… ideally into April/May ‘27.

That is a topic for a more in-depth discussion later.

However, there are a couple key factors that would corroborate that – most notably the potential for future 1 – 2-month (or larger) highs in Oct/Nov ’25 and April/May ’26… future phases of the 27 – 28-week CP.  They would reinforce subsequent phases – most notably in April/May 2027.  Here are a few more…

  • Successive 12-year rallies = 2027
  • Successive 56-month rallies = April ’27
  • 2-year low (Apr ’19) – high (May ’21) – high (Apr/ May ’23) – high (Apr ’25) – (high) Cycle Progression = April/May 2027.

Gold & Silver are fulfilling & validating the ongoing outlook for a series of strong rallies in 2025 – first into late-April, then into late-July, and ultimately into Oct/Nov ’25 (ideally, late-Oct/early-Nov ’25).  That is all part of a much larger advance that began in late-2022 and that could stretch into 2027.

Platinum & Palladium are similar and are consolidating after fulfilling early-April buy signals and projections for subsequent surges into mid-to-late-July cycle highs.  Those highs reinforce future cycle highs in late-Oct ’25 (90 degrees later) and portend a new surge – with intervening support at ~1200/PL & ~1100/PA – leading into that time frame.

Recent action also reinforces the 17-Year Cycle impact on Silver and corroborates the outlook for a MAJOR uptrend in white metals following April ’25 cycle lows…

17-Year Cycle & Silver: April ’25 Low

The April ’25 INSIIDE Track detailed why Platinum was/is on the cusp of a Major advance (along with Silver & Palladium), stating: “This could be one of the ‘golden’ (or is that ‘platinum’) trading opportunities of 2025!”  Related buy signals projected an initial multi-month advance into ~mid-July ’25 and an overall advance into October ’25 (as part of a larger rally into 2026).

The 40-Year Cycle of Currency War continues to impact Gold and its relationship to the US Dollar.  Gold fulfilled major cycles in Sept/Oct 2022 when it perpetuated a 7-Year Cycle of consistent lows (2001 – 2008 – 2015 – 2022) that coincided with the onset of a new 40-Year Cycle of Currency War AND 80-Year Cycle of War and projected a multi-year bull market to follow (into at least 2025/2026 and potentially longer)…

Outlook 2022/23: A New Currency War Begins

Outlook 2023: A New Currency War & Inflation

April 2025 ushered in a new and reinforcing phase of this overall shift and corroborated multiple expectations for April 2025 into April/May 2026.
