GDX resumes its original path

A month ago, the GDX gapped up above the 55EMA to break a downtrending cycle. But it was not sustainable, as previously observed.

This week saw the concomitant plummet, alongside Gold, which closed the previous Gap Up with a Gap Down, bringing the week closure below the 55EMA. This is a failed breakout.
Technicals support this bearish turn of events, with the MACD and the Price Momentum crossing down.

Target 32-33 in Feb 2021.
