SPDR Gold Trust Shares Daily Chart 2

In 2012 when gold made a double bottom in June and with prices rallying in the summer months, some analysts were sure that the bottom was in and gold was destined to reach new highs. Obviously that did not happen as it was merely a consolidation which broke down in 2013.

Gold again made a double bottom this past December and with prices well off that Dec low, we are now hearing similar calls.

May be, may be not.

Until prices can break above resistance near 138 on GLD, this is just another consolidation within a bear market.
