Gold and mining shares staged a half-hearted bounce off the lows yesterday, but on meager volume. And the metals declined further in overnight electronic trading.
The fact that no buyers are stepping in here – especially Asian buyers in the overnight session – tells me the counter-trend rally in gold and mining shares has likely run its course. The next move will be to the downside over the next several weeks as forecast by the E-Wave cycle.
Gold should find support at the recent lows near $1,260, but it would not surprise me a bit to see a deeper correction down to $1,240-$1,250. And a retest of $1,200 an ounce cannot be ruled out.
That’s why it makes sense to reverse our positioning to take advantage of this correction by taking action on the two trades below …
Here’s what to do right away:
1. Sell to Close ALL my shares of ProShares Ultra Gold Miners ETF, symbol GDXX at market.
2. Using 5% of the trading capital you have set aside for this service, BUY the Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bear 3X Shares, symbol DUST at a limit-price of $24.50 or better. This order is good-till-canceled.
DUST aims to deliver 3x the inverse performance of gold mining stocks, which should translate into substantial gains of 20%-30% or more, even with a modest correction in gold. Place these trades right away and hold all other positions.
Good investing,
Mike
