February Gold futures are reversing higher and this should support the Gold Miners ETF NYSEARCA: GDX for a “short-term” trade higher.
As you can see in the Gold Miners (GDX) chart above, momentum reached an oversold zone and looks to be turning higher.
Note as well that similar “short-term” trading setups have presented themselves recently. Expectations should be within reason, as recent bounces have been contained to a matter of days. I think the 50-day moving average around $38 is attainable. Any move below the recent lows near $33 will be bearish. So traders need to set stops.
