Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF Performance

Historical performance is a good guide for the future, but it is imperfect. Pay attention to a company's history, but be realistic about what you can project into the future.

1 Year Total Returns Performance Comparison

Here are Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF's total returns compared to the market and some of its peers.

@Janozeski93 If $GDX $NUGT is up Tuesday, I would sell on the Close. I've taken a partial $DUST position assuming maybe 1-2 more up days max
about 2 days ago by ETFSwingTrader

@Janozeski93 My bet: $GDX reverses before 46, $NUGT rolls over before 12. I opened a $DUST (short $GDX) trade Friday looking for 10% pop.
about 3 days ago by ETFSwingTrader

@Janozeski93 And if $GDX did move this far, slippage in a 3x ETF would prevent comparable performance. Please research how they work.
about 3 days ago by ETFSwingTrader

@Janozeski93 For $NUGT to hit 25 $GDX wd have to recover 3 months worth of losses in a very short period of time. 3x ETFs don't act this way

@Janozeski93 $GDX had a Buy signal on 15th, exit on 20th. Shorted with $DUST 21st, 10% profit early 23rd, and now new $DUST trade again.
about 4 days ago by ETFSwingTrader

And note in bottom of this chart that $GDX highly overextended vs $GLD, which it underperforms. http://chart.ly/jxiwi8j
about 4 days ago by ETFSwingTrader

@Janozeski93 If $GDX continues up again, I add my final 5% for a full 10% trade. Note $GLD overbot http://chart.ly/9a4gvql
about 4 days ago by ETFSwingTrader

@Janozeski93 If the trade goes against me, I will add another 3% to position Tuesday -- which may happen since $GDX not quite at Resistance.

@Janozeski93 I am not posting trades right now as I build my website, BUT I am personally opening a $DUST position today (shorting $GDX).
about 4 days ago by ETFSwingTrader

@Janozeski93 I trade $GDX ($NUGT) from this chart. Heavy resistance above, over-extended on RSI(2). $GDXJ http://chart.ly/o3t7hil
