  • scottrades: $GDX $GDXJ $NUGT $GLD looking pretty interesting here
  • bigbartabs: @scottrades $GDX $GDXJ $NUGT $GLD ... I've been stalking GDX all morning, waiting for a pullback to add to NUGT. Could maybe happen now that we have 3 red 15 minute candles. The next run might put GDX higher on the daily chart. FWIW...
  • natural: @bigbartabs $GDX $GDXJ $NUGT $GLD Thanks for the heads up. I'm probably late to the game, but just started w a little $NUGT
  • maracom: Good morning all! Precious metals starting to heat up as we come to the end of interest rate increases, which could spell the end of the recent dollar rally. Not planning on adding any leveraged trades ($NUGT $GDX $GDXJ $WPM $GFI) just yet, but $GLD ...
  • wijimmy: @scottrades #Bitcoin ... $NUGT, $GDX,$GDXJ .. running also
  • scottrades: @scottrades and $GDX $GDXJ $GLD $SLV
  • woodman: $GDXJ bouncing off 20d after pullback.
  • maracom: @sagsworth $GLD Depends on your time frame. This is the third test of this level over the last couple of years and macro environment is great for gold to break out to higher levels. I hold physical gold instead of $GLD, but I'm bullish on precious metals and choose to play them short term with leveraged plays such as $GDX, $GDXJ, $SLV, and options. In the short term, it's probably a good idea to book some profits (I already booked profits and am pretty much out, and since I'm feeling a ton of FOMO right now that's probably a signal to sell), but $GLD is a slow mover so it's hard to make a high percentage short term trading $GLD. Another option to books some profits would be to go with covered calls if you have at least 100 shares.
  • maracom: Pulling apart the top 10 components of the $GDX that are tradable in the US, the best performers that are approaching all time highs are: $FNV $WPM $GFI. The large miners $NEM and $GOLD are lagging compared to the midcap miners. The other midcap miners that are still playing catchup are: $PAAS $NCMGY $AU. $PAAS is also the largest holding in $GDXJ. The first three are too hot for me to handle right now, all greater than 25% away from the 50sma, but if the #gold move is real $NEM and $GOLD still have plenty of room to catch up. I'm selling a cash secured Apr $50 put to #wheel $NEM, and I'm taking a small starter in $GOLD as a mental health buy. Will watch the leaders for signs of a pullback to add.
  • woodman: $LVS breakout - Besides LVS, I'm in very little other than a number of select biotech stocks. My non-biotech is LVS $NFLX (bought this morning) $ELF $GDXJ, and big pharma $MRK and $LLY
  • jonwest88: @woodman @champ $LVS $NFLX $ELF $GDXJ $MRK $LLY Ulta Beauty $ULTA since 11/15 approx., this one has returned about the same as $ELF.
  • woodman: @jonwest88 $LVS $NFLX $ELF $GDXJ $MRK $LLY $ULTA - I love the consolidation in $ELF after a monster 170+ % run from May 2022 (vs Ulta 45%). ELF is taking a well deserved and encouraging rest as it consolidates into the rising 50d which has almost caught up. I think ELF is preparing for another move higher soon. Maybe not this week, but soon. I continue to hold it. I have to check my notes but I think I bought it back in August. (Maybe earlier, I can't recall.)
  • jonwest88: @woodman $LVS $NFLX $ELF $GDXJ $MRK $LLY $ULTA HAVE put $ELF on the watch, as I have had a small bit of $ULTA since 9/1 and mid Oct. Lucked out with Cramer rave fave $EL. Nice run on that one from below $200 a few months ago
  • woodman: @jonwest88 $LVS $NFLX $ELF $GDXJ $MRK $LLY $ULTA $EL - Excellent work with $EL! Congrats.
  • issues: @scottrades $GDX $GOLD $AEM $WPM $KGC $AUY Thank you Scotty! I bought $AEM, $WPM, $GDX. $GDXJ. $IAG, $AGI, & $GOLD (and $PYPL just for fun!)
  • woodman: $GDXJ $GDX #miners - great day for the miners. Many breakouts. (Long $GDXJ)
  • Docoof: @woodman $GDXJ $GDX #miners Number 5 in the $GDXJ ETF gave it a nice push. (Long $BTG) :-)
  • woodman: @Docoof $GDXJ $GDX $BTG #miners - I see $BTG #16 (of 37) according to TC2000. They are up essentially the same amount today. The big winner in GDXJ was $MUX!
  • woodman: @issues $GDXJ $GDX #miners - Sorry, what are you asking specifically?
  • Docoof: @woodman $GDXJ $GDX $BTG $MUX #miners #16 I usually go directly to the source and check. In this case, VanEck: https://www.vaneck.com/us/en/investments/junior-gold-miners-etf-gdxj/holdings/
  • woodman: @Docoof $GDXJ $GDX $BTG $MUX #miners #16 - Oh, we are talking apples and oranges. I thought you meant was #5 % gain today. I didn't realize you meant size of holdings.
  • Docoof: @woodman $GDXJ $GDX $BTG $MUX #miners #16 #5 However it came across, I was just being playful, because you are, so to speak, one of my teachers. I wasn’t competing or questioning your post.
  • woodman: @Docoof $GDXJ $GDX $BTG $MUX #miners #16 #5 - My son eff's with me all the time. So, I'm used to it. :-) Seriously, I didn't take your post negatively at all. I just thought we misunderstood one another and were talking about 2 different things. Totally cool.
  • issues: @woodman $GDXJ $GDX #miners STOPS? Do you have any stops in place or are you going to put some in?
  • DAN: ...
    COTD: Here’s your trade on $GDXJ

    $GLD -- This is working. Gold has traditionally been an inflation hedge. Hasn’t really worked that way over the last couple of years. But it’s moving higher and that’s all that matters.
    $ ...
  • woodman: @scottrades $GDX - I'm still in $GDXJ. It's nearing a test of recent resistance.
  • debeers: $BA/$NEM/$NKE/$TPR/$PYPL-the $GDXJ wi,ll get you done but--and its my only argument with ETF's-you get the good with the bad. i cannot possibly track all the ones with gold since i am not smart enough, so i took the $NEM.
  • woodman: @Angdionk $CDE - Nice one. I bought some when I saw your post. Also in $GDXJ (bought it last week).
  • scottrades: My video notes: $SPY Inside Day $QQQ Still in a down trend $DIA Still holding the 50 Day $GLD Working $SLV Working $GDX Above the 200 Day $GDXJ Same $XLE Just under the 50 Day $KWEB Flag break on volume $XBI Want to see this get back to the base. $TSLA 90 degree Angle $AAPL Broke the low $NVDA Yikes $WPM Bought last week $EGO Low Dollar Gold Stock $GOLD Breaking above a short base $AEM Above all the MAs $CROX Trending up $FL Also working $NKE Working but extended. $BOX Flagging $CAT Working $DE In a base $INT Flag $SLB A bit above the 8EMA $TDW Holding the 8EMA $XOM Holding the 50 Day
  • woodman: $GDXJ hasn't given up trying to get through the 200d.
  • maracom: @manoli77 $PAAS I've owned PAAS in the past. It's about 1/10th the market cap of $NEM $FNV and 1/5 the size of something like $WMP. The smaller you get in the gold miners space the more volatile it can be based on operations. I owned them when they shut down one mining shaft due to a ventilation problem and the stock lost like 20% in two days. I do still have tiny positions (like 0.5% of my portfolio) in a smattering of small miners but that is pure speculation in hopes for an acquisition offer. My approach now is to go with individual miners if they offer a great dividend like $NEM, otherwise I prefer an index like $GDXJ to get additional leverage on small miners (as opposed to going with individual smaller operations). Or just stick with $SLV which is leading the precious metal complex anyways. Or $NUGT for short trades
  • vitoB: Hello hello. Spent some time lookin at mining stocks after the Friday pop. List includes, $GDXJ $FNV $WPM $AG $AU $GFI $KGC $ $GOLD $NEM… Chart with the longest base and best close on Fri seemed to be $AG. $WPM second, and $GFI had a huge move but actually didn’t close very nice, a move above Fri high for this one to me. And actually $GDXJ looked better than most of the large holding charts oddly enough. Any one else ?
  • Docoof: Gold stocks up pm: $GLD $AEM $GDX $GOLD $GDXJ $BTG $JNUG $NUGT $AUY Down pm: $UUP
  • Cjauger: @Docoof $GLD $AEM $GDX $GOLD $GDXJ $BTG $JNUG $NUGT $AUY $UUP
  • Docoof: $GLD $GDX $GOLD $GDXJ $BTG $JNUG $NUGT All up pm.
  • issues: If we've got rampant inflation why is gold going down? $GDX $GDXJ $GOLD, $NEM $WPM Etc
  • bRobert: @issues $GDX $GDXJ $GOLD $NEM $WPM $UUP. one reason Headwind Two. Margin calls. may lead to raised cash. in other assets 3. Perhaps inflation becomes less of an issue. Start with a pullback in oil prices
  • DrScience: @issues $GDX $GDXJ $GOLD $NEM Because the value of the dollar is going up. Inflation should weaken the currency, but our old buddies, the national debt, geo-political events, international concerns, and slowing economy are just some of the cross-currents spoiling the party. Can't buy as much gold when folks are flocking to the dollar.
  • Docoof: @bRobert $GDX $AU $GLD $NUGT What do you think of $GDXJ? Is it coming out of a little base today? (Junior Gold Miners ETF)
  • bRobert: @Docoof $GDX $AU $GLD $NUGT $GDXJ It will work. well. Similar. bullish chart. Higher potential % return than $GDX. when in. BULL MODE. More risk Higher reward wit smaller names
  • Docoof: @bRobert $GDX $AU $GLD $NUGT $GDXJ Thank you. I’m only in $BTG, but am looking to enter one of your favs soon, because they come with free commentary and suggestions from one of the SMM members.
  • snowbound: $GDXJ Cup and Handle ( W ? ) DAILY chart .... phase #2 in motion closing above the 8EMA in a spinner . A move above 48.50 on Volume reattempts WEEKLY W BO .
  • yammi55: $SILJ, $GDXJ: It is time for silver and junior miners to out perform majors ($GDX). Gold up 2.3% FNV barely up 0.4%.
  • scottrades: Good morning Team! Another mixed bag type of morning with Metals like $GLD and $SLV green and carrying up the $GDX and $GDXJ Miners with them. I don’t have much to say this morning that wasn’t said last night so I’ll keep this one brief. We are in a Messy environment and the best course of action is to focus only on what’s working and wait for tighter price action or big moves on volume. My 8 year old son tested positive for Covid today and I’m not sure how it’ll all play out so I may be in and out of the forum as needed. TGIF! Scott
  • sierramp: @scottrades $GLD $SLV $GDX $GDXJ Prayers that your son has a very, very mild case. Will be thinking of you and him.
  • gt: @scottrades $GLD $SLV $GDX $GDXJ we will all be holding you and your family in our thoughts. good thing we have family day!
  • iglab: @scottrades $GLD $SLV $GDX $GDXJ
  • iglab: @sierramp $GLD $SLV $GDX $GDXJ Please Scott, keep in mind that there is no valid test for C19, the symptoms are the same as the seasonal flu and kids have better than 99.9% recovery rate with just bed rest.
  • Mikev200: @scottrades $GLD $SLV $GDX $GDXJ Sorry to hear this about your son. Take care buddy.
  • scottrades: My video notes: $SPY Trend is down. $QQQ Yikes. $GLD Holding up great $SLV No #SilverSqueeze Yet but working fine. $GDX Some miners are extended but as long as GLD is good… $GDXJ Same $XLP trying to get back above the 50 Day $SQQQ Bearish QQQ $SPXS Bearish SPY $FAZ I hate that this looks bullish.. #Crypto Bitcoin is a bit boring, so I bought another NFT Today.. $NEM High Flag potential. $WPM Low volume pullback $GOLD Still extended. $EGO Same $CMC In trend, good volume $RIO Bit of a flag $AA Working.. $CF Still in trend but whippy. $AR Bought some of this today. $PXD Good volume today. $DVN Still fine. $HES Holding the 21 EMA. $BROS at the 50 Day $COST Bubbling under the 50 Day. $MO Following $PM
  • scottrades: @yammi55 $GDX Great job!! $GDXJ is also working well. Always question everything, even me. Every trade has got to fit your process and for you to be able to hold it with conviction. They don't all work out, we are risk managers. Cheers!
  • yammi55: @scottrades $GDX $GDXJ Thanks, yes question everything, pretty much (I gotta be careful with the boss at home ;-) . I am a Risk Manager, finally a promotion from individual contributor. I like it.
  • scottrades: My notes: $SPY We’re going to look at a lot of Shiney Rocks tonight $QQQ Needs to firm up, quick. $GLD Wow! $SLV Testing the upper trendline $GDX Power move on Volume. $GDXJ Also working. #Crypto Not acting like Gold but we finally got our 40K Test. Now let’s see if it holds. Some Miners that are working well: $NEM, $AEM, $EGO, $WPM, $PAAS, $SSRM, $FNV, $GOLD, and $AG $FCX Looking for a handle. $SBLK Power move, consider profits. $GOGL Needs a rest $ZIM in consolidation $EGLE Testing the highs. $BYD Flag $PLAB Earnings Next week $HES Watch the 8EMA $DVN Still in an uptrend $PXD Great volume today

Thanks, B
  • mradams0621: $GLD $GDX $GDXJ $KL sharp drop, watching for a bounce
  • mradams0621: @mradams0621 $GLD $GDX $GDXJ $KL 10:00 AM turn around just like yesterday in $NUGT. Is this machine trading?
  • issues: @bRobert $GDX $NUGT $XME A couple of others include $SSRM $PVG $WPM but the one I like the best is $GDXJ (up 11% in days)!
  • gmj: #Metals Going through my watch list of metals this morning. several breaking up with vol +. Small position in $FCX and interested in $WPM, $FNV, $GOLD, $SVM, $PAAS, $GDX $GDXJ ... focused on $PALL down 40% off the highs 18% below the 200ma, basing SW across the bottom now with higher lows, 8% bb squeeze, back abv the 50ma and pivot. Game plan, sm starter pos on Monday above 197, add abv 202 and stop at 189 [-4% max]. $PALL has been a worker for me in the past, I'm looking for 15% upside/4% downside, Alerts set for b/0 202, 8ma/191.15 and 50 ma/ 189.50. Hunting will continue.
  • Explorer: @scottrades $SLV $GLD Sector ETFs vs Individual Stocks $GOLD $WPM -- Yes, did see the video (got it HH / HLs) -- ?my question is more general -- ? Do ETFs show an early sign of sector rotation vs. Individual Stocks? I posted earlier this week --AU and AG / Miners --All Up 2%+ Today -- $EXK $MAG $AG $GDXJ $BHP $SLV $GDX
  • scottrades: @Explorer Sorry for the confusion. 100% Yes! I scan a large list of ETFs every week and look for patterns within those ETFs. $SLV and $GLD however are not ETFs, they are essentially Paper Gold and Paper Silver. So because of the fact that Miners are ...

  • maracom: @bRobert $GLD $NUGT I'm long $GLD but I'm overweight/prefer $GDX. Downtrending channel has been broken on both charts. The juniors in $GDXJ are lagging but if they also breakout then I think that will be very bullish. The miners are VERY cheap on a P/E basis with excellent free cash flow and going into earnings season I think will hold up well
  • bRobert: @maracom $GLD $NUGT $GDX $GDXJ I agree The miners are the leveraged play I'm long $NUGT
  • CarolGregory: $GDXJ $GDX Morning Winners :)
  • maracom: Daytrading $BFLY and $DQ. Stopped out of $BIDU at 298, $AA at 21.5, $GDXJ at 47.5. Underwater on $X, $NIO, $BLNK, $NVDA, $NNDM but not stopped out

  • maracom: $GDX and $GDXJ both cleared the 8 EMA and 20 SMA but will have to contend with the 50 and 200 SMA overhead. 8 EMA crossing above the 20 SMA. Long both
