Gold Poised for Surge to Weekly LHR; Future Higher Highs in October ’25.
08-23-25 – “Gold & Silver are fulfilling signs for a rally into late-August… Gold & Silver remain below the highs set on July 21 – 25th – highs that fulfilled ~5-week low-low-low-high-(high; July 21 – 25, ’25) Cycle Progressions as Silver fulfilled ongoing analysis for a surge to 39.50 – 40.10/SIU or higher…
Along with other price & timing indicators, that ~5-week Cycle Progression reinforced near-term potential for additional (intra-month) spike highs in late-August – with the coming week timing the latest phase of that ~5-week Cycle Progression AND the latest phase of a ~22-week high-high-high-high-high-(
August 25 – 29th also times the midpoint of an overlapping 44 – 45-week low-high-high-high-(high; Jan 26 – Feb 6, ’26) Cycle Progression… pinpointing it as a pivotal & decisive week.
Gold could corroborate that by still creating a ‘ricochet’. As its name implies, that pattern sees a market ricochet from LHR to HLS to LHR (or vice-versa) – in a tight window of time, usually successive periods or within 2 periods.
Gold dropped right to its weekly HLS (3378/GCZ) in mid-August and could still spike up to a subsequent weekly LHR while setting an ensuing peak… Gold has remained in a weekly uptrend during its entire consolidation phase (since its late-April cycle peak)…
Gold’s daily trend pattern corroborates this. The earliest that daily trend can turn back up is August 26th. That is often the time when a short-term peak is seen – whether or not the daily trend reverses. Silver remains in an intra-month uptrend and reinforced that by turning its daily trend back up. That could spur a retest of its late-July ’25 high.
The XAU & HUI remain in overall uptrends with the XAU reaching its primary (minimum) upside target and spiking to their monthly LHRs (extreme upside targets for August ’25) at 240.61/XAU & 506.21/HUI – setting the stage for a multi-week top to take hold.
These indexes have their 2025 yearly LHRs at 249.49/XAU & 511.76/HUI… not much higher than the monthly extremes. The XAU would not turn neutral until a daily close below 225.00.”
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)…

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