Monstrous reversal

The gold miner ETF of GDX saw a monstrous downside reversal, swinging from a new hist' high of $117.18, to settle -$24.07 (20.8%) to $91.77. 

GDX, monthly 

 


Summary

A new hist' high of $117s, but imploding to the $78s, and settling in the $91s. Monthly momentum has rolled over. RSI has cooled to the 67s. 

Most notable of all... the March candle is bearish engulfing, and bodes distinctly s/t bearish for April, and perhaps some months.

Of the four, yours truly favours Newmont. However, gold, silver, and the miners are short/mid term broken. Based on the monthly candles, even the bold will leave them alone at this time.
