Just Don't Slip Up Now
We have a pretty textbook bull flag setup on the GDXJ, ETF for junior miners, as seen on the daily chart, below. Indeed, even with the silver metal coming in today it is quite impressive to see money flowing back into the precious miners after their recent consolidation.

An Oldie But Goodie
Rates are on the move higher again today with the 10-Year Note back over 4.6% as I write this.

Even though UNG is well off session highs it is still soundly green as I write this and continues to have a great May. RRC, below on the daily, is one long idea related to natty with a sound chart.
