kevin currie - first off welcome to BPT, and nice to have you.

GDX and gold stocks have been discussed in every single newsletter and we have two mechanical systems on the website in the ' Mechanical systems ' section of the website

When the GDX systems flipped back to a long, an intra day email was sent out to everyone on the website to notify them.  I did not check to see when you signed up, however perhaps this occurred before you signed up and you did not see it, that was on May 18th.

However that said, we don't throw everything on the watchlist, we put most of the ideas into the newsletters and since we already have two mechanical systems, I didn't feel the need to also add it to the watchlist.

And of course depends on your trading style, you could have either traded GDX via the systems, or no system.  I personally bought GDX before the system as I follow a lot of my intra day charts such as daily, 60 min etc, as well  as the ratio trendlines.  

Think of BPT as a magazine or newspaper: just like you would do with a newspaper or magazine, you don't read all the articles, you flip through and choose what you want to read.  The same is true with BPT, we have ideas for short term day trades, swing trades, and longer term ideas, it's best to use BPT as a resource of ideas and pick and choose the ideas and analysis that fit you.

Now if you want, I can add GDX to the watchlist with stops and other ideas, but I do cover this in every single newsletter with my ideas about it.  

Now should I have added some individual gold stocks to the watchlist?  Yes probably, however if you have been looking at my newsletters, I have been covering a ton of individual names for weeks and weeks that I thought looked good and I've mentioned things that I was looking for
