Sorry, but I don't bother to post real-time while trading. I bought Mar 2012 and Jan 2013 puts on GDX this morning. Looks like a five wave wedge over the last few weeks finished with the spike this morning. That wedge looks like part of a larger wave structure that is completed as well. HUI hit major price target precisely on today's high. Stop is 5 points above today's high.

The expected dollar rally should put significant pressure on the metals and miners in the months ahead.

Well, obviously this trade was early, which is a fairly common problem I have. This is probably a bad idea, but I'm adjusting my mental stop to a close above 235 basis XAU. The high on 12/7/10 was 232.72 - very close to fib number 233. That area is important based on other price projections as well. If I find some time later, I'll post a chart of what I'm looking at.

LOL this is muy interesting, what you count as a wave Uno Senor counts as a grande rally ending, rather differing interpretations. let the luckiest hombre win!

NO BS

Well senor: that is what makes a market! But if that wave 1 is grande ending, where is the impulse down off the top?
