Palladium Price Chart

How the palladium market trades

Palladium is the thinnest of the major precious-metal markets, and it shows on the chart: moves that would be extreme elsewhere are ordinary here. Demand is dominated by one use — catalytic converters for gasoline vehicles — and supply is concentrated in Russia and South Africa, a combination that produces dramatic shortages and gluts.

That structure explains the boom-and-bust shape of the long-term views: multi-year rallies when carmakers scramble for supply, and deep retreats as substitution toward cheaper platinum and the shift to electric vehicles erode demand. Position sizes that suit gold are too large for palladium’s volatility.

How to read the palladium chart

Use the timeframe buttons (1D, 1W, 1M, 3M, 1Y, 5Y, MAX) to change the period shown. Short timeframes capture intraday volatility, while the 1-year, 5-year, and MAX views reveal whether Palladium is in a long-term uptrend, downtrend, or trading range. The line is shaded green when the price rose over the selected period and red when it fell.

Trends, support, and resistance

A series of higher highs and higher lows signals an uptrend; lower highs and lower lows mark a downtrend. Support is a level where buyers have repeatedly stepped in, while resistance is where sellers have capped rallies. These are reference points, not guarantees.
