Silver, Platinum & Palladium Surging as Gold Holds Support & Projects New Highs!
06-30-25 – “Gold & Silver remain mixed with Gold continuing to validate the significance of the late-April ’25 cycle high and fulfill the near-term outlook for a drop to 3244 – 3267/GCQ. While fulfilling those downside targets, Gold tested its rising weekly 21 High MAC – a pivotal level of ascending support, currently near 3280/GCQ.
Gold would need to give a weekly close below that level to elevate its latest sell-off to a higher magnitude. Until that occurs, it remains in a weekly (and monthly) uptrend and on track tor ultimate new highs leading into late-2025 – in sync with its ~6-month Cycle Progression.
Intermediate cycle highs, in late-July/early-August ‘25, could corroborate future cycle highs in late-Oct/early-Nov ‘25.
Meanwhile, Silver remains bullish and on track for a surge above 39.00/SI as part of its current advance from early-April. Last week, it pulled back and attacked weekly support while precisely fulfilling a ‘wave 4 = wave 2’ structure with two successive corrections of ~2.20/SIU each (April 23 – May 15 & June 18 – 24th).
That ushered in the time for a new rally – reinforced by Silver’s daily trend pattern – the likely ‘wave 5’ of its overall (initial) advance from the early-April ‘25 cycle low. From a broader perspective, Silver is still targeting a multi-month rally (from early-April) to 39.50 – 40.10/SIU, where 4 of the latest 5 monthly LHRs converge.
Silver also has a pair of range-trading targets at 39.50 – 40.00/SI that reinforce this upside target (~28.50 low – ~34.10 high – ~39.70/SIU & ~28.50 low – ~32.25 low – ~36.00 high – ~39.75/SIU high).
Silver’s recent low fulfilled projections for a multi-week low to take hold on June 24th (+ or – 1 trading day) – the latest phase of a ~5-week/38-day low-low-low-(low) Cycle Progression and it’s trading-day equivalent, a 27 trading day low-low-low-(low; June 24, ’25) Cycle Progression.
As long as that low holds, Silver should rally for at least half of the ensuing cycle – into mid-July. A more ideal scenario would have Silver rallying into July 18 – 22nd (2/3 of that daily cycle) – the same time that Gold encounters a ~3-month cycle high – and potentially into July 30th (a full cycle).
Of added (cyclic) interest, the late-June low also arrived at the midpoint of an over-arching 10 – 11-week/~76-day low (July ’24) – low (Oct ’24) – low (Dec ’24) – low (Feb ’25) – low (May 15, ’25) – (high; ~July 30, ’25) Cycle Progression.
From a timing perspective, Silver set a low in April ’25 – fulfilling broader geometric cycles that include a move of 180 degrees from its Oct ’24 peak and – looking forward – a low that is ~360 degrees prior to major cycle highs in ~April 2026.
In the interim, it was/is projected to surge into late-July and then into late-Oct/early-Nov ’25 – all linked to these uncanny geometric cycles.
That could be linked to developing inflation, global competition for critical metals and minerals, and the tech-related needs of the new economy. The outlook remains that Gold & Silver are in broader bullish trends and their outlook remains positive.
Gold & Silver perpetuated a ~7-year low (4Q ‘01) – low (4Q ‘08) – low (4Q ‘15) – low (4Q ‘22) Cycle Progression in Oct ‘22 and have been projected to undergo a multi-year advance into 2026/2027.
The XAU & HUI pulled back into late-June with the XAU dropping right to weekly support and nearly spiking down to its weekly HLS while the HUI did spike below its weekly HLS, fulfilling its related downside target, signaling an imminent low.
That recent spike low could have fulfilled an ‘a-b-c’ correction in these indexes with the XAU bottoming right at the level of its mid-April ’25 peak (199.41) – a pivotal level of resistance turned into support and range-trading support.
It has also allowed the projected June ’25 peak to hold for a few weeks, reinforcing the outlook for higher highs – and a more significant peak – in October ’25… 4 months later.
A high in Oct ’25 would also fulfill a ~1-year/~12-month low (Oct ’23) – high (Oct ’24) – (high; Oct ’25) Cycle Progression and a corroborating ~10-month high (April ’23) – low (Feb ’24) – low (Dec ’24) – (high; October ’25) Cycle Sequence.
Ultimately, the XAU remains targeted for a retest of its late-2010 peak near 233.00/XAU. That coincides with other (non-correlated, but corroborating) upside targets in the same vicinity. One of those has to do with range-trading targets and has been discussed throughout recent months…
In mid-April ‘25, the XAU was projected to peak near 199.00/XAU – a decisive level of range-trading resistance that linked previous range parameters (since 2023) at ~103 – ~135 – ~167 – ~199/XAU. As explained at the time, the next target – following a daily & weekly close above 199.00/XAU – would be 231/XAU. That remains the case.
In many (most) cases, a market will break above range resistance and initially spike higher – but not to the subsequent upside range target – and then drop back to test the breakout point (199.00/XAU) before resuming its advance. That is often referred to as the trend’s ‘test of strength’.
The XAU just did that, reinforcing these range parameters and increasing the likelihood for a surge above 230.00/XAU in the foreseeable future (potentially in July ‘25).
Reinforcing that, the monthly LHR for June ‘25 (extreme upside target that applies for 2 months) was at 235.74/XAU and the monthly HHR for July ‘25 is at 232.18/XAU. (At the very least, the series of lows since Feb ‘25 – near 150, 175 & 200/XAU – form a multi-week range target near 225.00/XAU.)
Platinum continues to surge, powerfully validating and fulfilling projections for a major bull market in white metals to begin on April 7 – 11, ‘25… and ultimately last into April/May 2026.
If that is fulfilled, Platinum would complete a 50% rebound in time (12 years down/6 years up) and fulfill the latest phase of a ~5-year high (2011) – high (2016) – high (2021) – (high; 2026) Cycle Progression that parallels the Silver outlook.
Palladium triggered higher-magnitude buy signals in the first half of June, reinforcing its outlook for a major advance along with Platinum & Silver.
On a longer-term basis, Palladium was/is expected to enter a new bull market in April 2025 and stretch that into 3Q 2026 – when the next multi-year peak appears most likely.
A peak in 3Q ‘26 would fulfill a ~5.25-year low-low-low-high-(high) Cycle Progression as well as a .618 rebound in time (39-month decline followed by 24-month rally).
Throughout May & June ‘25, Weekly Re-Lay Alerts have focused on this unique opportunity – repeatedly emphasizing why early-April 2025 ushered in a decisively-bullish period – based on cycles AND a myriad of price & timing indicators – that should spur a powerful bull market in white metals.
On June 18th & 25th, those Alerts stressed how & why Palladium was ready to accelerate higher in late-June and join Platinum in a breakout bull market. It quickly validated that outlook and has powerfully confirmed the broader outlook.”
Gold & Silver are reinforcing the ongoing outlook for an extended 2025 rally – into late-Oct/early-Nov ’25. They pulled back into late-June with Silver signaling the completion of an intermediate correction and the start of a new surge higher… that should ultimately take Silver above 40.00/SI. Gold just held pivotal support while maintaining its weekly uptrend, portending the onset of a new multi-month advance.
Silver, Platinum & Palladium fulfilled cycle lows in early-April and were forecast to enter bullish cycles on April 7 – 11th and enter a much larger advance that could see a series of highs leading into late-Oct/early-Nov ’25 – all focused on 2Q 2026. Palladium triggered multiple buy signals – on June 17, 20 & 25th – signaling the time for an accelerated surge into mid-to-late-July ’25.
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 – when a multi-month peak is likely to take hold. ~1500/PL is the primary upside target for this advance.
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 the time (April – August ’25) when War Cycles could produce some unexpected surprises.
