Last week’s nasty chop barely recovered ground lost as the week began, when GDXJ’s canny handlers orchestrated a $17 shakedown on Monday’s opening. This was bullish, like all shakedowns, because its purpose was to scare widows and pensioners into selling their shares for relative bargain prices. The subsequent bounce triggered a ‘mechanical’ short when it reached the green line (x=93.97), but the flat price action that followed looked unpromising as a place to bet the ‘don’t’ line.
