Trend following The Gold Miners Index

On a long term basis, Gold mining stocks, US Treasury Bonds, and gold,  are outperforming The S&P 500 Index. As usual, the reporters on bubblevision aren’t covering this. Instead they have OCD over the latest gimmick from “the social network”.

We can see on the Gold Miners Index (GDM) (GDX) chart, Weekly lookbacks, major S/R (Support and Resistance price reversal) from February, at the $662.10. To continue Bullish, we want to see it close over, on a Weekly and Monthly basis.

Gold Miners Index ..losing momentum

way outperforming the S&P long term, this ride may be “on hold”

The Gold Miners Index has been outperforming The S&P 500 Index long term. Looking at 32 Weeks, Weekly, we find a major S/R (Support and Resistance Price Level at $598.50( which happens to be The Month Of March Low), trading today before the close at $612.80. A close under $598.50 would signal the Uptrend is probably broken, or at least it will start trading weak relative to the S&P. So we’ll see what happens this week. For the newbs, gold miners can be extremely volatile, both Up and Down. Small position size allows the investor to ride the draw-downs, and sleep at night. These things drive The Lo Vol crowd crazy.
