Default Goldfinger With Black Leaves Please Help!

Hey guys,
I had posted several weeks ago about leaf streaking on my Goldfinger. The newest leaves thankfully show little if any streaking now. However, the oldest leaves on the plant have developed black spot/streaks that eventually elongated and merged. Entire sections of the leaves have turned black/brown and crispy. Seemed to get much worse in all the rain. I am withholding fertilizer, and have moved it to a cooler, less sunny spot with much less water (it's been getting tons of water). I'm still really concerned this is a virus. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!
