Ideas and calls
Long, bearish, hedge and relative-value ideas can coexist. Only explicitly issued calls enter the existing scoreboard; short and hedge performance is not graded.
Issued calls · returns compare the symbol with SPY after 30 and 90 days. Positive excess supports a BUY; negative excess supports TRIM or SELL. WAIT and research ideas have no score. These are call outcomes, not a campaign return.
the confirming leg, not the broken one — 11.6% above its 200-day on a +62.48% year; a pullback that holds that average is the entry the structure supports
Invalidation: a close below its 200-day, which would confirm gold's break
a close back above the 200-day ($414.79) that holds a full week; below that the break stands and there is no entry
Invalidation: failure to reclaim $414.79 alongside GDX losing its own 200-day — metal and miners breaking together is the pattern that matters
same shape as GDX — 11.5% above its 200-day on a +75.94% year
Invalidation: a close below its 200-day
n/a — 7.7% below its own 200-day and widening; a reclaim of that average is the first thing that would make it discussable
Invalidation: n/a
n/a — the inverse side of the same instrument problem
Invalidation: n/a
don't chase RSI 70.3 after a +21.31% week — a first pullback that holds the 200-day ($87.37) and the $87.83 shelf is the entry the structure supports
Invalidation: a close back below the 200-day turns the reclaim into a spike
a close above the 200-day ($411.70) that holds with RSI above 55; $445 reopens the full recovery case
Invalidation: a close below the July 16 low ($364.96)
n/a — leveraged miner exposure compounds the whipsaw that already makes miners the wrong instrument for timing this trend
Invalidation: n/a
above its 200-day by 2.4% but RSI 67.1 after +20.0% — same pullback discipline as GDX, entry on a hold of the 200-day ($86.39)
Invalidation: a close back below the 200-day
the laggard of the complex at 9.8% below its 200-day ($63.76) — a reclaim of that line is what would confirm bullion joining the miners
Invalidation: loses the 50-day ($56.64), leaving the week a miner-only move
n/a — the dollar at RSI 39.5 is the tailwind, not the trade
Invalidation: a UUP reclaim of its 20-day ($28.34) on rising RSI drains the rates channel this rally runs on
a close above the 200-day ($411.72) that holds with RSI above 55; $445 reopens the full recovery thesis
Invalidation: a close back below the July 16 low ($364.96) — bounce failed, downtrend resumes
