New Entries
I stopped out of my Silver today and picked a couple new trades to replace. A lot of Gold stocks are pulling back already, so the worst of the carnage is probably over. Will we see new market highs or is this a fool's rally? What do You think?

Open Trades
While everything else about an open trade is established at entry, the ‘stop loss’ order will be adjusted periodically over the life of a trade. The idea is to move the stops at key price points and let the profitable trades keep running.
I didn't move any stops today, although I did find and fix a typo in my EWI stop price shown.
