Corrective Period for Gold

Although gold prices -- and the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE: GLD) -- are slightly lower this morning and are holding up extremely well after multiple up-days, my work argues for more pullback action in the upcoming hours. Both my near-term pattern and momentum work argue that the GLD has entered a corrective period that should press lower -- into the 90.00 area at a minimum and possibly to 88.00 -- prior to the next loop to the upside. As of the moment, I am content to remain on the sidelines in the GLD for a while longer.
