A Tale of Two ‘Set-Ups’

When looking at the price action of Senior Miners, GDX, you get the sense, ‘it had to be this way’.

That is, the only way to get up enough energy to close the gap shown below, was to have two successive (lower) ‘spring’ attempts.

Senior Miners, GDX, Daily

Yesterday’s action closed the gap.

What comes next is unknown, but we do have a ‘line in the sand’; that is, if miners (and gold) are to continue on a potential ‘hyperinflation breakout’, then, GDX must post a new daily high above yesterday’s 53.04, at some point.

Either way, Hard Stop of DUST-25-05, at 23.69 (not advice, not a recommendation).

Now, on to CrowdStrike.

CrowdStrike, CRWD, Daily

Yesterday’s action was ‘outside-down’.

We’re right at resistance, that will become support if CRWD, is able to rally from here.

If not, and CRWD posts (consistently) below resistance, then we’re at the top edge of a rising wedge pattern that’s been forming since July, of last year.
