Give me a red or black candle on an upper Bollinger band and I'll swing short in this sector. A white candle on the lower Bollinger swings me long. Pretty good sector for swing trading.

Appropriate stops are always...well, appropriate (as is frequent profit-taking).

If GDX breaks out above 54-55 line with some volume, the game will change (and it could eventually given the generally rising bottoms), but for now, I'm short from today's open with a better than break even stop in place at the close.

Simplify, simplify, simplify...

Good trading to everyone.

Stopped out on the open. Appears the game has changed. Will stand aside for now. :o
