Curious if anyone would be looking to scale into a swing long on
GDX here?
Seemed like some capitulation yesterday but i'm wondering why
there wasn't a larger move up today... so far... anyone have any
comments or thoughts here?
GDX is underperforming both the metal and the broad market today
(at least from the opening gap that is). What remains to be
seen is how GDX holds up in a real broad market sell off (hasn't
happened in a while).
Holland...I review how I judge valid objective swing versus
trade entries in my tutorials. Hint: picking exact bottoms is not
commensurate with swing entries. I will consider trading off lows
(if triggered) for a trade. Be mindful, that trade could last
anywhere from a day to a few weeks (in some cases) but for swing
trades I prefer to see a HIGHER LOW (or double bottom) established.
All this and more I discuss in these tutorial sessions. Thus,
I would not consider GDX a swing trade candidate at this time. My
objective is to not attempt to catch bottoms but wait for an
objective entry for a swing trade. With that said, I will
certainly consider a trade in GDX should it provide such an
opportunity.
holland - again just have to see how it develops - I attached a
few charts - the first 2 charts show 60 min charts which I
discussed last night, the 20 and 50 MA's and the 1575 is a good
resistance area. The 3rd chart shows the Fibs, the 50 and
61.8% Fibs are also areas to watch, the 61.8% Fib is at 1580
