Trend Breakdown
trim/sell if story weakened
Friday close below $182.92-7.5%trend stop; next support $177.37–182.45
If broken, then…
Trade Breakdown (Friday close < $185.77): review the thesis (earnings, estimates, guidance). No trade yet.
Trend Breakdown (Friday close < $182.92): trim or exit if the fundamental story has also weakened; RS is still leading the S&P/TSX, so favour a trim over a full exit. Next support $177.37–182.45.
Sluymer's view: Partly agrees. Last named Aug 18: “WPM is also at its next extension level between 184-194 where a near-term pause is likely” (CB Aug 18); gold has since broken 4273 support (CB Oct 13).
Watch this week: Fri Oct 16: a Friday close ≥ $187.14 (-5.3%) keeps RS vs the S&P/TSX at Est. Up or better; a Friday close below $185.77 is the Trade Breakdown.

Notes & caveats

Benchmarks: S&P/TSX Composite (20 pts) and XGD (10 pts). Trading items and bands use the Fri, Oct 9, 2026 close; trend uses the Fri, Oct 9 week. Holder levels: Breakout = top of R1; Profit-Taking = next resistance band above it; Trade Breakdown = 40-wk SMA if between Trend Breakdown and price (or already broken), else the S1 floor; Trend Breakdown = trend stop (S2 floor). Rates modifier uses the US 10-yr (Sluymer's global rate gauge). Coppock = 10-bar WMA of ROC(14)+ROC(11), standard settings used as a placeholder because his are unpublished; DAS is omitted. Zone = sign + 3-yr percentile; direction = 2 bars. SMAs are simple; swings are 5-bar extremes; the channel is a 2-yr log regression ±2σ. The breadth proxy is the % of ~210 current S&P/TSX Composite members (dashboard universe) with a rising weekly Coppock, in the spirit of his TSX Quadrant Balance; survivorship bias; regime input only. Weights are our choices (playbook §10); the state rule matched 86% / 83% of his sector states in-sample. Data: Yahoo Finance (unadjusted); weight from the Portfolio Dashboard (PIM 10/09 EOD, read-only).
