1 RCKS TALK Keith Edwards, Chartman Market Analysis Technical Market Analyst RCKS Charts RCKS Charts: BHP, TECK, KL, FM, ANX, ECS, WDO & TK In this edition of RCKS Charts, Keith has evaluated BHP Billiton Ltd. (NYSE:BHP), Teck Resources Ltd. (NYSE:TECK), TSX Diversified Metals & Mining Group, Kirkland Lake Gold Ltd. (TSX:KL), First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (TSX:FM), Anaconda Mining Inc. (TSX:ANX), ecobalt Solutions Inc. (TSX:ECS), Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX:WDO) and Tinka Resources Ltd. (TSXV:TK). We have been watching metal prices (gold, silver, copper, zinc, nickel) climb for several weeks. At the same time many metal and mining stocks had been held back into yearend, likely due tax-loss selling. With that pressure out of the way metal and mining stocks are again attracting attention as the New Year gets underway. What impressed us were the huge breakouts in major global mining names, such as BHP Billiton, Vale S.A., and Teck Resources, in the final days of 2017; suggesting global funds were positioning into metal and mining stocks. This growing interest is also evident in the Canadian market as the TSX Diversified Metals & Mining group is edging toward a breakout of its 13-month consolidation pattern accompanied by rising momentum and improving Relative Strength within the Materials sector. From our perspective this bodes well for metal and mining stocks as we enter Figure 1: BHP Billiton Ltd. (NYSE:BHP) & Teck Resources Ltd.

There is minor resistance at $20 and once clear the door is open to challenge the summer highs of 2014 at $ Figure 4: First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (TSX:FM) A number of smaller names are also perking upwards following the sloppy December period. We have a lengthy list of names we are watching but at this point several stand out: Anaconda Mining Inc.

(TSX:WDO) challenging its downtrend from March 2017 with rising momentum and a crossover by the 50dma of its now rising 200dma, suggesting a trend change is unfolding.
