PostHeaderIcon GDX Heading to $73. Per Share

Here is a 2 year chart of GDX the etf that tracks gold mining stocks. You will notice that it is almost identical to that of SLV as described in the post below. Since the March top of 2008 GDX has been trading in right triangle and rectangular patterns. It has broken through the hypotenuse of the major right triangle price formation and is in an intermediary uptrend channel. Volume has increased substantially on this ETF and momentum is turning positive on the macd at a high level. It looks like GDX is about to break out of its trend channel and eventually move to new highs. The projected price target of $73. is computed by subtracting $16.33 (the Oct. 2008 low) from the price that is equal to the shortest distance to the hypotenuse and then adding the result to that price. I have marked that distance with a line. That calculates to $45.00 – $16.33 = $28.67. $45.00 + $28.67 = $73.67. If this price calculation works out that equates to approximately a 50% return on GDX from it’s current price of $48.29. It took about 1.5 years for this chart pattern to form. I anticipate the move up to be significantly quicker.
