that have made huge gains the past month or two and are now
trading outside their upper Bollinger Band and seem oversold on the
RSI indicator and others. Unlike the non-precious metal
stocks which I trade short term, I tend to hold the gold/silver
miners for the long-term ride up. Nevertheless, these have
risen so far so fast that I'm wondering if it makes sense selling
some now with an objective of re-purchasing after a significant
pullback......or whether I'm playing with fire with such an
approach.
I have been buying and selling gold stocks since 1974. I
have been a financial advisor for the past 19 years. My best advice
is if you are long term bull on these stocks, as I am, you should
always have some in your portfolio. You can use this current period
to rebalance when we get a sell signal. Secondly, you should always
have a trading position either short or long. If things get bad you
can use puts to hedge your position. Matt's systems provide great
guidelines.

This very fast move up usually ends quickly also. Moved beyond
my wildest dreams. From other quick moves , similar to gold miners,
this is certainly time to be cautious. Very scary reversals might
happen
I also tend to stay long the miners. It probably makes sense to
sell a part from time to time and buy back on a pullback. But given
the facts that gold miners are undervalued, gold has broken the
downtrendline and has to go much further and also helicopter
Ben who is making a very good job in destroying your
currency.... it seems to be very difficult to pick temporary
highs.... I tried it a few days ago and could not catch a perfect
reentry...
I have a bevy of gold and silver mining stocks....

The gold stocks seem overbought and with commercials short huge, some type of pullback is in order. Watch for sell signal
