Gold September Seasonality (Last 10 Years: 2015–2024)Gold is heading into September after a monster run in 2024/25. Unlike the “September slump” you hear about in crypto, gold’s last decade shows mostly mild, tactical moves in September—often driven by real yields, the dollar, and physical demand cycles. Once any early-month wobble plays out, dips have tended to be opportunities within the prevailing trend.

🔎 Key Insights
• Gentle September bias: Over the last decade, September has skewed slightly negative for gold (mean −1.45%), but the drawdowns are modest compared to risk assets.
• Cycle matters more than calendar: 2020–2023 saw consistent reds as the dollar firmed and real yields rose; 2024 flipped green as rate-cut expectations and central-bank demand underpinned prices.
• Long-term seasonality ≠ last-decade reality: Multi-decade studies often show gold firming into late summer/early autumn (festival/jewelry demand, restocking), but the last 10 years were dominated by policy and yields—diluting that classic pattern.
________________________________________
🚀 Macro & Market Context
• 2019–2020: Trade tensions into COVID—gold corrected in Sep ’19 (−2.6%) and more so in Sep ’20 (−3.7%) after August’s spike to new highs.
• 2021: Fed taper talk + rising real yields → weakest September (−4.6%).
• 2022: King Dollar & rapid hikes → another red September (−2.3%).
• 2023: Real yields kept pressure on bullion (−3.7%).
• 2024: Sentiment flipped on policy expectations and persistent central-bank demand → solid +5.0% September.
________________________________________
🧭 Takeaway
Gold’s September over the last decade has leaned slightly bearish, but mostly in controlled, single-digit moves. The signal isn’t “sell September,” it’s “watch real yields, the USD, and physical flows.” When those line up, the calendar fade loses its bite—as 2024 showed.

WISH YOU ALL LUCK
Silver Acceleration PhaseGold and Silver are entering acceleration mode.
Silver tends to run into hyperdrive during gold's last major leg up. Gold could push to 3,800+ here, while Silver could run up to 45+.
The miners are very happy. Most of their technicals look amazing.
PAAS and FMS in particular are my favorites currently and look like they want to moon soon.
Silver Eyes 40-Resistance for a Record High BreakoutIn line with gold’s momentum and the industrial demand for silver—particularly from the growing tech and AI sectors—a clear hold above the 40 mark may extend gains toward 42, aligning with the upper border of the uptrending channel respected since 2023. A breakout beyond that border may offer a more comfortable bullish outlook for silver, with potential upside toward 46 and 50, in line with the 2011 peaks and possibly beyond.
On the downside, should momentum pull back, a clean break below 37 may extend losses toward the channel’s mid-zone near 35, where a potential rebound could emerge. If not, the next key level I’m eyeing is the lower boundary of that channel near the 30 mark, which may offer another long-term bullish positioning opportunity on the silver chart.

SILVER AT RESISTANCE ZONE-READ CAPTIONHi trade's
Silver price is currently approaching the resistance zone near 39.100, while the risk level remains at 39.500.
If price respects this resistance, we may see a rejection and a move back toward the demand zone at 37.900.
However, if buyers push above 39.500, the bearish setup becomes invalid.
This setup highlights a short opportunity from resistance with demand zone as the key target. Risk management is crucial, as a breakout above 39.500 may shift the trend
Resistance 39.100
Demand 37.900
Risk 39.500
Silver breakout support at 3830The Silver remains in a bullish trend, with recent price action showing signs of a continuation breakout within the broader uptrend.
Support Zone: 3830 – a key level from previous consolidation. Price is currently testing or approaching this level.
A bullish rebound from 3830 would confirm ongoing upside momentum, with potential targets at:
3965 – initial resistance
4000 – psychological and structural level
4040 – extended resistance on the longer-term chart
Bearish Scenario:
A confirmed break and daily close below 3830 would weaken the bullish outlook and suggest deeper downside risk toward:
3800 – minor support
3755 – stronger support and potential demand zone
Outlook:
Bullish bias remains intact while the silver holds above 3830. A sustained break below this level could shift momentum to the downside in the short term.

A 45-Year Trend Breakout Signal in the Silver/S&P 500 Ratio
This analysis presents a long-term case for a secular trend reversal in the Silver-to-S&P 500 ratio. The ratio appears to be breaking out from a multi-year consolidation pattern that is nested within a massive 45-year descending channel. This alignment of short-term and long-term patterns, supported by fundamental drivers, suggests the extended period of equity outperformance over silver may be approaching a major inflection point.
Technical Analysis: A Generational Reversal
The monthly chart displays a rare confluence of technical formations, with each pattern reinforcing the others across different time horizons.
* The 45-Year Descending Channel: The entire modern history of the ratio is framed by a massive descending channel originating from the 1980 peak. This structure has defined the long-term bear market. The key insight is that the ratio bottomed at the lower boundary of this channel in the early 2000s and has spent two decades building a base in the lower half of the channel.
* The Macro Rounding Bottom: The large green arc (highlighted by the white circle) visualizes the generational bottoming process that has been forming since the 2011 peak. This classic reversal pattern suggests a gradual but powerful shift from a bearish regime to a new bullish accumulation phase.
* The Nested Triangle Breakout: Within the larger rounding bottom, the price has been consolidating in a multi-year symmetrical triangle. The ratio is currently attempting to break out from this nested pattern, signaling the potential start of the next major upward impulse.
* Bullish Moving Average Crossover: Confirming this breakout is a rare "golden cross" on the monthly chart, with the 12/24-month SMAs crossing above the 50-month SMA. This signals a significant shift in long-term momentum, mirroring a similar event that preceded the major bull market that peaked in 2011.
Fundamental Drivers
This technical setup is underpinned by powerful fundamental catalysts:
* Strategic Mineral Classification: The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has designated silver as a "Critical Mineral," essential for national security and the economy.
* Emerging Sovereign Demand: Reports indicate potential new interest from sovereign entities, like Saudi Arabia and Russia, in adding silver to their national reserves.
* Structural Supply Deficit: This new demand is emerging against a backdrop of a persistent structural deficit in the silver market.
Synthesis and a Two-Stage Thesis
The technicals suggest a two-stage process for a major trend reversal. The breakout from the nested triangle, driven by the rounding bottom, represents the initial move. This is the start of a potential journey from the lower half of the 45-year channel toward its upper boundary.
Should the initial breakout be confirmed, it could represent the beginning of the parabolic, multi-year phase of outperformance that many long-term investors have anticipated for decades.
- Stage 1 Confirmation: A sustained monthly close above the 0.0060 level is the critical threshold for confirming the breakout from the nested triangle.
- Stage 2 Macro Target: A successful breakout would imply an eventual long-term move toward the upper boundary of the 45-year descending channel.

3965 – initial resistance
4000 – psychological and structural level
4040 – extended resistance on the longer-term chart
Bearish Scenario:

3755 – stronger support and potential demand zone
Outlook:
Bullish bias remains intact while the silver holds above 3830. A sustained break below this level could shift momentum to the downside in the short term.

Gold Prices Overview of Primary Catalyst : September 2025⚡️ Gold: Consolidation Before the Next Move
Gold set fresh records earlier this year and now sits in a tight post–Jackson Hole range around $3,360–$3,380/oz as rate-cut odds jumped and the dollar eased back. Spot was ~$3,368 this morning, slightly off Friday’s spike after Powell opened the door to a September cut.
________________________________________
1) Fed Path & Real Yields — 9.5/10 (Bullish for gold)
Powell’s Jackson Hole remarks highlighted rising labor-market risks and explicitly “opened the door” to a September cut. Futures now price a high probability of an initial -25 bps move with more to follow into year-end. Lower policy rates/real yields remain the single strongest tailwind for non-yielding gold.
2) U.S. Dollar Trend — 7.5/10 (Bullish for gold)
The DXY slipped toward the high-97s after Powell’s dovish tilt and remains soft versus recent peaks, reducing a key headwind to non-USD buyers. If the dollar rebound stalls, gold’s upside path stays cleaner.
3) Central-Bank Buying / De-Dollarization — 8.5/10 (Bullish)
Official-sector demand stays structurally strong. Global central banks remain on track for another ~1,000t year, with China’s PBoC extending purchases for a ninth straight month. This “sticky” bid continues to underwrite dips.
4) Trade/Tariff Shock (incl. U.S. tariffs on bullion) — 8.0/10 (Bullish)
The broad U.S. tariff regime (10% baseline, higher on targeted goods) is inflationary at the margin; crucially, imports of 1kg/100oz gold bars were swept into the rules, temporarily snarling Swiss shipments and roiling COMEX/LBMA logistics until guidance is clarified. Result: fatter location/financing premia and periodic price dislocations that tend to support spot.
5) ETF & Institutional Flows — 7.5/10 (Bullish)
After years of outflows, ETF inflows in the first half of 2025 were the strongest in 5 years (~$38B; +397t), with July showing further additions. GLD holdings are back near ~957t. Continued inflows amplify macro moves.
6) Systematic/CTA & Positioning Dynamics — 6.5/10 (Mixed → Volatility)
CTAs and options flow are magnifying swings around key levels ($3,350–$3,420). Upside call demand is persistent, meaning whipsaws remain likely as trend-following systems react to dollar/yield shifts.
7) China Property & Growth Stress — 6.0/10 (Bullish)
The Evergrande delisting and deepening Country Garden losses underscore a property slump that keeps risk appetite in check and supports defensive assets. Weak housing drags on jewelry demand but typically supports investment demand for bullion.
8) U.S. Fiscal Risk & Credit Quality — 6.0/10 (Bullish)
The May downgrade of U.S. sovereign credit and ongoing wide deficits keep a slow-burn bid under gold. Any wobble in auctions or debt-ceiling theatrics would push this higher.
9) Jewelry & Tech Demand — 5.0/10 (Slightly Bearish/neutral short-term)
Record prices hit Q2 jewelry volumes (-14% y/y to 341t), though India shows early signs of seasonal revival into festivals. Tech demand dipped ~2% y/y amid electronics softness. Physical demand is a brake on parabolic rallies.
10) Geopolitics (Ukraine, Middle East, Taiwan risk, etc.) — 5.5/10 (Event-Bullish)
Headlines remain volatile—Israeli strikes on Iran-aligned Houthis and ongoing Ukraine politics keep a latent safe-haven premium. Spikes are event-driven unless escalation persists.
________________________________________
🌐 Other Catalysts to Watch
• Crypto Cross-Flows (5/10): Sharp crypto drawdowns can funnel short-term interest into gold, though correlation remains inconsistent.
• Bullion Logistics & Refining (New): U.S. tariff ambiguity on kilobars introduces intermittent premiums and arbitrage opportunities between Zurich–London–NY.
• Physical Supply Disruptions (4/10): Always idiosyncratic; currently secondary to macro.
| Rank | Catalyst | Score/10 | Current Impact | Direction | Notes |
| ---- | ------------------------------------------ | -------: | -------------- | ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| 1 | Fed path & real yields | **9.5** | Very High | **Bullish** | Dovish tilt; cuts now live for Sept. |
| 2 | Central-bank buying | **8.5** | High | **Bullish** | Ongoing official demand; PBoC keeps adding. |
| 3 | Trade/tariff shock (incl. bullion tariffs) | **8.0** | High | **Bullish** | Broad tariffs + bullion rules raise premia & inflation risk. |
| 4 | U.S. dollar trend | **7.5** | High | **Bullish** | DXY softer post-Jackson Hole; less drag on gold. |
| 5 | ETF/institutional flows | **7.5** | High | **Bullish** | Biggest inflows in 5 yrs; GLD holdings high. |
| 6 | Systematic/CTA flows | **6.5** | Moderate | **Mixed** | Options/CTA activity driving overshoots both ways. |
| 7 | China property stress | **6.0** | Moderate | **Bullish** | Structural drag supports safe-haven demand. |
| 8 | U.S. fiscal/credit risk | **6.0** | Moderate | **Bullish** | Downgrade + deficits maintain hedge demand. |
| 9 | Jewelry/tech demand | **5.0** | Low | **Neutral → Slightly Bearish** | Jewelry volumes fell 14% y/y; festivals could revive. |
| 10 | Geopolitics (broad) | **5.5** | Low–Mod | **Bullish (event-driven)** | Episodic; not the primary driver now. |
Silver’s Roadmap: Support at 37, Eyes on 451. What happened last week
As I mentioned in previous analyses, Silver is more bullish than Gold. Last week confirmed this view once again: the dip from 37 was quickly absorbed by buyers, showing strong demand. On the weekly chart (left), the reversal from the lows printed a clear bullish engulfing candle, while on the daily chart (right), the bounce shaped a classic three white soldiers pattern.
2. Key resistance and current challenge
Friday’s advance, however, stalled exactly at the resistance zone around 39, an area defined by the high from previous months. This makes 39 the immediate hurdle for bulls. Without a clean breakout above this zone, the risk of another short-term pullback remains.
3. Bigger picture outlook
Looking further ahead, many traders might see a move toward 45 as “stretched,” considering it implies a rally of nearly 6000 pips from here. But in percentage terms, that’s only about 15%, which is well within Silver’s historical volatility. In fact, such moves are not unusual for Silver market when momentum builds.
4. Trading plan
With this in mind, as long as the 37 level holds as support, the strategy remains to buy dips into weakness. A decisive break above 39 would provide confirmation for continuation, opening the door toward the 45 target area.
5. Final note
Silver continues to show relative strength compared to Gold. The technical picture is bullish, the levels are well-defined, and the price action is clean. Now the market simply needs confirmation above resistance.

Silver Roadmap: Key Supply at 38.8 or a Breakout to 39.6?Price is consolidating around 38.0, after recovering from July’s breakdown, currently sitting just below the weekly supply/resistance zone at 38.3–38.8, with liquidity resting above 39.2–39.6. The nearest and strongest daily demand lies at 36.6–35.5 (origin of the prior impulse and multi-touch base).
Momentum/RSI on the daily chart is neutral (not overbought), with the latest rally built on shallow pullbacks → a favorable context for potential “stop-hunts” above supply before the market makes a decision.
COT (Aug 12): Non-commercials remain net long but have been trimming positions (longs ↓, shorts ↑), while commercials stay net short → bullish positioning is cooling, often a precursor to range-bound or corrective phases.
Retail sentiment: roughly 52% short / 48% long, not at extremes → no strong contrarian signal.
Seasonality: August tends to be slightly bullish for silver on 10–20 year averages, while September is historically negative → current tailwind may turn into a headwind ahead.
🔎 Bias: Neutral with a bearish tilt at 38.3–38.8, unless a breakout is confirmed; elevated risk of false breaks toward 39.3–39.6 before potential downside rotation.
Key catalysts to watch: DXY and real yields (inverse correlation), gold performance, US macro releases (CPI, ISM, NFP), and Chinese data (PMIs/industrial growth).
A stronger USD or rising yields would favor the bearish case from 38.8, while a weaker USD combined with a gold breakout would increase the odds of a liquidity sweep toward 39.6.

Is it possible to climb on the 4th attempt?
Hi my dears
In all the previous moves, a major resistance level has not been broken. Is there a possibility of this level being broken in the coming times? If and only if this level is broken with a good candle, then there is a possibility of an uptrend. So for now, the best decision is to watch.
What do you think, buddy?
