GDX
DJI/GDX appears to be nearing completion of a top.The GDX, which is an ETF comprised of precious metals mining shares appears to be topping with a head and shoulders pattern when compared to the DOW. Basically when this ratio reduces the GDX becomes more valuable when compared to the DOW Jones Industrial average and broader stock market. This ratio appears to be trapped in the undervalued zone (for the GDX) and has been there for the last 8 years.
We are still in a time with good buying opportunities for gold and silver miners, as the GDX is cheap when compared to the broader stock market.
Sooner or later this ratio will break down lower. When it does what would you rather own? General stocks or gold mining stocks?
Gold is cheap versus Miner ETFsGold and Silver mining equities remain very cheap relative to gold.
Using historical prices and disregarding dilution, the upside of miners to current gold prices is
GDX: 96%
SILJ: 132%
GDXJ: 260%
GDX An Incomplete sequence Favors More DownsideThe Elliott wave view in GDX suggests that the main cycle from the August 20, 2020 peak is showing an incomplete sequence. Favoring more downside to happen based on sequence towards $24.80- $21.36 area lower before a turn back higher happens. While the short-term cycle suggests that the decline to $30.05 low ended wave 1 of (C) in 5 waves lower. Up from there, GDX did an expanded flat correction in wave 2 bounce.
While an initial 3 swing bounce ended wave ((a)) at a $31.59 high. Down from there, wave ((b)) also ended in 3 swings at $28.90 low. Then the bounce in ((c)) leg unfolded in 5 wave impulse sequence. In which, wave (i) ended at $30.16 high, wave (ii) ended at $29.95 low, wave (iii) ended at $31.54, wave (iv) ended at $31.19 low, and wave (v) ended at $31.77 high. Thus ended wave 2 as an expanded flat correction.
Below from there, GDX declined in 5 waves lower & ended small wave ((i)) of 3 at $30.15 low. And now doing a 3 swing bounce in wave ((ii)), which can see $31.29- $31.51 area before turning lower again. Near-term, as far as bounces fail below $31.77 high then ETF is expected to fail lower looking for more downside. Alternatively, if it breaks above $31.77 high then it can even see $33.01- $34.77 area higher before seeing sellers again.
GDX consolidating to downside biasQuick update that previous attempt for GDX to rally up was pre-mature. Still not yet in a bull trend.
Weekly chart had a break out above 55EMA fail in the last couple of weeks, only to bounce off a support. Technicals not totally aligned so may consolidate for a couple more weeks before some clarity forms.
Daily chart (right panel) shows the failed attempt, which now has a clear resistance line (lime green). Last week ended with a failure type downward candlestick, suggesting weakness in a rally. Technicals appear somewhat bullish, in contrast to weekly chart.
Expecting some consolidation, with a little downside bias within range.
Gold, 20 Dec. Forever $1800.Gold has been ranging for over a year around 1800, with deviations of +/-7%. Today here we are, back at 1800.
Wyckoff:
The range gives us a chance to do a Wyckoff analysis. It is possible to interpret the structure as a re-accumulation with a spring and two tests afterwards. We need to see the LPS and SOS phases next to confirm this interpretation.
Elliott:
We are able to count (i) - (ii) in blue and sub-wave i - ii (in green). If correct, we should expect a wave iii of (iii) that would bring Gold out of the re-accumulation pattern. Wave ii has retraced 78.6%.
Geometry:
The inside pitchfork provides us with diagonals that are well-respected by price. A break of 1878 would confirm bullishness.
How I trade it:
Most importantly, Gold has made a higher high, and a higher low, causing the MACD to crossover on the daily. We can now look for an active sequence that holds moving averages. If the wave iii of (iii) assumption is correct, we will see a swift move to the upside. The idea is to gradually build long exposure here, and exit the positions if price falls below 1770.
GDX: Pushing for dem Lows! 🥸🥸🥸The GDX ist moving downwards again, which is the primary direction we are expecting this market to develop. With this turnaround, an alternative surge is now neutralized and we now need to wait for the course to reach the area around $22.51, where we expect the next turnarund - but this time to aim for rising prices. It remains important here that the course does not drop below $16.18.
Have a great start to the week!
GDXJ LONG! Gold Miners bouncing off support. Entry = $43.55.Entered at GREAT price right up against Major Support. Usually I post pics with MACD. Today I am not. Showing this chart as prime example of how Price Action dictates trade. Only using a simple system of Trend Lines and Horizontal support and resistance lines and some observation of candle patterns and you have all you need to trade. Another trade BUY signal will be once we break above the recent high of Oct 25, 2021 @ $45.75.
Entry = $43.55
SL = $41.89
Target Price = $54.86
R = 6.81
All that glitters is not GOLD or is it? We shall soon find outGold is making its way up to test the DTL that has been in place since the highs formed in August last year. Additionally there is massive horizontal resistance at the $1830 level. A convincing break and close above $1830 will set the yellow metal on fire! Keep an eye for the break!

Elliott Wave View: GDX Starts New Bullish CycleShort Term Elliott Wave view on GDX suggests cycle from October 4, 2021 low is in progress as a 5 waves impulse Elliott Wave structure. Up from October 4 low, wave (1) ended at 33.95 and pullback in wave (2) ended at 30.96. The ETF then extended higher and broke above wave (1), suggesting wave (3) has started. Up from wave (2) low, wave ((i)) ended at 32.69 and pullback in wave ((ii)) ended at 31.65. The ETF then extends higher in wave ((iii)) with internal subdivision as another impulse in lesser degree. Up from wave ((ii)) low, wave (i) ended at 33.15 and wave (ii) ended at 32.57. Wave (iii) ended at 34.83, wave (iv) ended at 34.21, and wave (v) of ((iii)) ended at 35.01. Pullback in wave ((iv)) ended at 34.47.
Near term, while dips stay above 30.96, expect the ETF to extend higher in wave ((v)). This move should also end wave 1 in higher degree and complete cycle from November 3 low. Afterwards, GDX should pullback in wave 2 to correct cycle from November 3 low in 3, 7, or 11 swing before the rally resumes. Potential target higher is 100% – 161.8% fibonacci extension from October 4 low towards 36.17 – 39.37. Near term, as far as pivot at 30.96 low stays intact, expect dips to find support in 3, 7, or 11 swing for further upside.
Cycle Low in Silver, Gold? Inflation Hedges Take Off NYSE:AG MCX:SILVER1! AMEX:GDX TVC:GOLD
It takes zooming out at least 20 years to feel good about buying gold or silver, traditional inflation hedges.
It's been a boring asset class since the Federal Reserve began its most recent monetary experiment, but as we all know, the piper will get paid.
Regardless - silver (shown) and gold are hinting at cycle price lows. After breaching a year-long trendline and triggering selling pressure, silver prices held support over the previous major low before forming what now may be a H&S Bottom, as defined by Edwards & Magee (1951).
$GDX Beautiful .618 bounce First PT 35I don't normally post Fibonacci's because they cloud up my charts but GDX appears to have made a beautiful bounce off the .618 fib line.
I went long DEC $34 calls, already up +15% but my PT is $35 in the near term.
A lot of bullish option flow for GDX/GOLD in general, I also have IAG shares doing nicely.
Whatever your strategy preference, I think it's a good idea to get long Gold for near term upside.
GDX looking for higher lowGDX have been so beaten for so long, and every previous attempt was not ready for that consolidation nor higher low. After a recent and decent break above the 55EMA, the Gold miners GDX ETF is retracing hard (as expected) and is now looking for a higher low, in about a week or two.
And with that, then we know the next run would be more robust.
Trading Range Breakout - Vox Royaltylooking back over 2021 the share price of this royalty company has done it all. We have seen a sell-off that culminated in massive volume (for this company) putting in a base. We then carved out a trading range before catching a bid to new 52 week highs. The recent breakout was welcomed, but the pullback to previous resistance on low volume, which is now acting as support, is crucial. Assuming the bull move is not over and buyers buy into value, the measured move of the trading range breakout would take us up to C$5.00
in the last 7 days Vox is up 5.1%
1 year up 34.2%

GDX and probably GXC rising to the occasionThe GDX was in close watch and it is time... Technicals are favourable for a bull run, and so is the broad equity market. Also had broken out of the Buy Zone!
GXC the China ETF is just about ripe based on technicals. Similarly, broad equity market drift should hold in supportm and the immediate gap should be closed for a run up.
