New Pairs Trade: $GDX/$GLD

 

I had been waiting for several weeks to enter into a long $GDX / short $GLD pairs trade. The ratio finally became oversold enough last week that I began scaling into the trade last Wednesday and added more on Thursday. Today’s bullish marubozu candle could be the beginning of a powerful reversion to the mean for this pair. A move above a ratio of .365 (GDX divided by GLD) would be very bullish for the pair and could lead to a quick move higher to the .39 area.
