Gold or Bitcoin - Which is the better hedge for 2024?

637
Short answer: Bitcoin

By the year end Bitcoin shall enjoy stronger gains. That is despite the 2-week Gravestone DOJI candle now currently printing on Bitcoin, which makes you wonder… what heinous price action awaits gold bugs?

On the above 3-day chart a ratio of Gold/Bitcoin is shown. If this ratio is downtrending (it is), Bitcoin will be worth more than Gold with each passing week and vice versa.

A Death Cross has now printed on the above 3-day chart after broken market structure. Expect the ratio to climb to confirm past support as resistance.

The 3-day death cross is significant. Look left. The last 3-day death cross printed on March 2016 (below). Gold lost 99% of its value against Bitcoin from that time. Now I’m not saying that is going to repeat, however the point would be that a 3-day death cross is not something you ignore.

Despite the rally Gold price action is now seeing, the forecast in 2024 was correct, Bitcoin outperformed Gold price action with a 150% return versus 30% for Gold.

If we're to take the latest rally in Gold price action, Bitcoin still more than doubles your return.
