OPENING (IRA): GLD MARCH 19TH 163 SHORT PUT... for a 1.78 credit.
Notes: Building up a GLD position a little bit here on this recent weakness. Targeting the strike that pays at least 1% of the strike price in credit, which here is the 22 delta 163. Going out to March, as I already have some on in February.
GLD
GLD Breakout Rejected. Bullish for Equities.GLD formed a nearly decade long base. Resistance was broken but overhead supply was dumped on heavy volume and the price action quickly retreated below the former high. GLD downtrend ever since. Closed below its 150MA. Bearish for GLD and safe heaven assets. Bullish for risk equities. Don't fight the trends.
Platinum over Gold and Silver?Precious metals sold off some but in light of Ms. Yellen moving in to Treasury, a continuation of her currency expansion is likely. To disregard physical precious metals as perhaps the only safe store of wealth seems to be folly. While the gold/silver ratio has fallen from nearly 120:1 down to the mid 70s, Silver is no longer the best value. The Platinum Silver ratio had ranged from 126 down to 33. At it's current 43 level, it does seem like the place place to put new cash.
Today gameplan for GC: Bearish pennant, looking to retest demandHi guys, i sharing my gameplan for today trading session on COMEX:GC1!
As you see in my chart COMEX:GC1! formed bearish pennant which was pierced at friday session. Its pulled back at esterday and today overnight session to retest lower line of pennant and today its ready to retest fridays low.
You can trade it for example by inverse ETF: AMEX:DUST
Happy trading!
GDX continues its original path - DOWN to 30GDX... one of my favouorites, but now is in a major retracement.
Again, three out of four factors are not favourable:
1. USD rising
2. Gold bearish
3. Equities Bearish (or soon to be)
Only Low Interest Rates are favourable.
The weekly chart has a GAP DOWN (ignore the BRB Buy signal for now), and it closed below the weekly 55EMA, which is a significant development.
MACD is crossing down soon in bear territory, and the RPM is pushing down again!
Shifted downside target to 30, mid Feb 2021.
Gold got Double Crossed!Gold continues its slide down, albeit with less momentum.
Technically, we got a double cross down, both in the MACD, and the RP (Relative Price Momentum), both in bearish territory.
Still see more downside.
Retesting 1800, and perhaps finding 1600...
Then maybe I can claim my side bet steak I have with a friend. Ouch.
Has GOLD Caught My Attention? Breakout on the HorizonGold Weekly uptrend is in a current consolidation cycle, hence the up and down movement on the Daily chart with no clear direction as of yet. As we zoom in intraday for multiple time frame analysis, you will see the 2 hour chart(left side) has found support at $1836 and the bands are constricting around the price action. Now with every great consolidation cycle, comes great volatility as we know one thing is true "Volatility is cyclical". So with a bottom in and intraday charts aligning, this intraday breakout IF strong enough, could set the Daily chart up for a strong enough break out, to pour over into the weekly charts to continue the uptrend and breakout of the Weekly chart consolidation Cycle. Gold is on watch, has the potential to move like bitcoin, once the market takes it last breath, this would be a good bottom to establish one self IF it holds. $1900 is the key level to break and hold...All aboard? TVC:GOLD
Gold will continue to be under pressureAfter a 10-year yield breakout higher Gold has set a new lower high only to re-instate its bearish trend since August 2020. Gold has a perfect correlation with TLT, and this relationship rarely fades out. With the breakdown in TLT (150 level), Gold will probably establish a new lower low in the short-term.
