Is It Time for Gold Stocks Yet?

Gold itself has recently corrected from $1,793 per ounce to $1,620 in the last several weeks. This has spooked the crowd out of gold and put further pressure on the gold mining stocks as well. Should Gold hold the $1,620 area and rebound past $1,691 you will see the gold stocks take off just ahead of that. From these 43-to-46 levels, the GDX ETF will provide very strong returns to investors with iron stomachs.

The best way to make money long term in the market and to grow your capital is to develop a method where you can define your risk levels within reason near the apex of a downside move, and then scale into that final apex and catch the rally on the upside. This is difficult to do but at my ActiveTradingPartners service we have developed a strong methodology that takes advantage of "herd behavioral characteristics."

We have not yet bought into the gold stock sector, but I assume fairly soon we will be dipping our toes in the water, right near the apex lows.
