Gold stocks are holding better right now simply because they are taking this opportunity to reconnect with gold.
Gold $350 is important here. It is on the 50 DMA and just below the 50% retracement. On the other hand, $355 is gone although it should have been major support since it was major resistance on the way up.
I think we could easily retext the breakout triangle where the 200 DMA is.
Still there are some excellent bargains shaping up.
