Here is a possible Long term Elliott wave count on GLD. If it proves to be true it is would be very bullish.

The long range count is the purple capital roman numerals.

In this count The 2011 high is marked V (purple count) a significant multi decade generational high.

The whole decline from that point to Jan 2015 is a ABC correction (purple count)

The rally into June  2016 is only marked as WAVE ONE up in a new grand super-cycle I (purple count)

The whole decline since June is simply a WAVE TWO correction II (purple count)

Now the good news!

This month January 2017 We have completed the WAVE TWO correction!

Now we are entering WAVE THREE in the grand super-cycle.

Folks that is generational BUY SIGNAL Surpassing the great bull market of the 70’s.
