"Unlike the usual relationship between volatility and equities, gold and gold volatility trade in tandem; and gold volatility (GVX) continues to grind lower since gold failed to gain momentum above $1,550 which is trending neatly within a descending channel.
If we breakdown gold volatility further, when the standard deviation spikes above 1 with the 30-day ROC trending lower, we see lower gold prices. The ROC is maintaining negative territory while the volatility sigma continues to slide lower."
Nar-term TACVOL range is 1520/1474.
