i dont think oil is near topping point yet... we could easily see MONTHLY RSI at 90 on oil price , right now it is at 80.. i think during the 1970's during the whole 10 year period oil barely had a correction... i think the same will happen this time... i think gold stocks and gold price will rocket up soon, as a contrary move to plunging djia

some times, i think no responses is the nature of posting! :D B) . it is still very early for the juniors, i dont know what price it will take for the large caps to start a buying spree and that will be the kickoff to the juniors getting some play. we are not there yet, but we are close. the xau/hui are correcting interday. next week, should start a correction. then, up for the balance of june. ones horizons when playing this sector has to be @least a couple of years. i have been holding, not trading since the 05 lows. i expect to be holding a couple more years. the trend is indeed your friend!!! watch crude oil it is the point man. dharma :redbull: :redbull: :redbull:

tor, go back and study the commodities bull market of 79-80. study each and every market. then call tops. crude is embarking on a parabolic, put french curves to it. look @the divergences. read my post on oil on the gold board -hedgehawks thread. this is my last address to your posts. oil could go like this for a few months. dharma

Of the 12 gold and silver stocks I follow only 3 finished up on the close (I see a couple more have moved positive in the aftermarket). After four days up the GDX that tried to go up five, there might be too much short-term exuberance on this blast off. Might need to back and fill to get more fuel. Oh, well...

Ooo...that's a ugly candle in the GDX daily.

Fwiw, SLW shot up to 15.46 this morning on strong volume but came back down. If it could hold above 15.50 for a couple of hours, it should be off to the races.
uh

Exactly. And XLE pulled an outside reversal day on volume !

The easy money (10%) has already been BOOKED on Friday's breakout. I sold off GLD/SLV near close, and will wait for the next pullback.

Dont be fooled by headlines, folks. Commodities trade in sync w/ the broads, and we have more DOWNSIDE to go. If downside accelerates, expect commodities to lead.

remember this up move is new, and it has raced up from the lows. a reaction here is warranted. i look for this to last a couple of days. reactions in bull markets are buying opportunities. buying strength in this sector will make it tough . although down the road wil be a different story. the divergences in oil got taken out yesterday. this is instructive. dharma

I am short GDX and SIL. It looks to me as if this move up from the low is a typical A-B-C countertrend bounce and that new lows await.

could be, i dont think so, but that is what makes a market. below 182.16 and i would have to change my tune.

John:
That would mean you count this as a complete ii up of 3 down or else abc B wave with C down to come (no guarantee of new lows if that is the case)then i take it? in other words 1-2-i-ii
i am told those former counts are highly unreliable

I am short GDX and SIL. It looks to me as if this move up from the low is a typical A-B-C countertrend bounce and that new lows await.

A down complete. B back up complete (or mostly complete). C down about to unfold. Gold to just below the 200-dma, 800/780, just to scare the living daylights out of bulls, then...up to 1250.
