Precious metals are in the spotlight once again as a weak US dollar coupled with a weak jobs report have traders buying Gold and Silver.
This is showing up in the trading charts of Gold futures, Silver futures, and the Gold Miners ETF (GDX). I am short-term bullish on all 3 here for a trade.
Looking at Gold, I see $1850-$1900 as the next band of resistance. What happens there will determine if we head higher yet (near-term).
Silver has a nice technical setup for a trade higher. The recent breakout should push silver futures back up to the $29 level.
The Gold Miners ETF (GDX) is 38.40 as an initial target. A move above that level should see GDX rally up to the $40 level. This ETF is volatile so it’s important to use a stop.
