Ishares Gold Trust ETF Forecast

Hold candidate since Jul 15, 2026

The iShares Gold Trust ETF price gained 0.0131% on the last trading day (Wednesday, 15th Jul 2026), rising from $76.27 to $76.28. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.35% from a day low at $75.73 to a day high of $76.75. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 1.02% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -586 thousand shares and in total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $223.44 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

The ETF lies in the middle of a falling trend in the short term and further fall within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to fall -16.70% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $59.48 and $64.81 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the ETF price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.

IAU Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, and so far it has risen 1.72%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The ETF should be watched closely. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The iShares Gold Trust ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $76.67 and $79.36. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals.

Trading Expectations (IAU) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 16th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 16th we expect iShares Gold Trust to open at $76.25, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $75.49 and $77.07, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.58 (+/-2.09%) up or down from last closing price. If iShares Gold Trust takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.09% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $75.96 (0.42%) than the resistance at $79.13 (3.74%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
