Shorter term trends - Gold & Silver stocks

Back in early June I posted an analysis of Gold and select Gold & Silver stocks.  Below is my third recap of my Trend Following Trading System, this time Gold & Silver stocks.  There are three differences in these stocks from the previous two "Shorter term trends" installments.

First, for these stocks I use a lower volatility setting for the trend algorithm.  Gold and silver stocks trend much better with lower volatility thresholds.

Second, a few of the "Buy" signals in the table were generated before I sent out the Gold & Silver Basket to subscribers.  But I think its a better view of performance of the algorithm to see the signals from inception.  The basket of gold and silver stocks was sent out on June 19th, so all performance is real time since Monday, June 22nd.

Third,  I'm including the Weekly Signals because they have been so good that trading them should be a material consideration for anyone with a longer term time horizon.



Finally, as with the previous two installments, past performance is not a guarantee of future results and that the reversal thresholds do change so the reversal levels shown above are only applicable at the time of this post but are updated to my private email list after each market close.
