Current bullish move is 38.1% UP from the January 19th low.
There have been 10 other UP waves since September 2011 and only 3 had a higher percentage move (38.5, 41.2 and 41.2).
This is only the second time that GDX has taken out the previous high.
The earlier occurrence in 2012 capped an A-B-C correction of the first primary wave down.
GDX weekly volume this past week was the third highest.
Institutional money started to pour into GDX during the latter part of the week.
The initial thrust was due to short covering - all those Gold Gurus (and their subscribers) calling for one more down leg after the September low was briefly taken out ended up with fried shorts.
