GLD trade ideas

GLD medium term target 204As previously suggested, GLD touched 194 before correcting down to 178-181 gapfill, which has completed as of Aug 12th. Now a bull flag has formed, 180 needs to hold for original bull thesis, with GP_C2 zone 179-180 being support. Bulls would want a decisive break out above the falling resistance as a confirmation for next attack towards 200. A couple of inside bars in the next sessions to consolidate between 182-185 would be ideal. Looking for a measured move to 204.8 in the next few weeks. Current position: LONG Disclaimer: These should be seen as the commentator's Notes to Self. Hopefully educational but aiming for entertaining. No legal or financial liabilities should be pursued from these materials.

Gold CCI Divergence, consolidation aheadGLD showed significant redemptions in in the ETF outflows, showing a shift in sentiment. From the peak CCI of 241 on the daily chart, GLD reached 177, then a divergence commenced, with a peak to peak decline in CCI of 77%, despite a rise in price of 6.4%. My two key support levels are based on anchored VWAP because they demonstrate the accumulate volume weighted average price from key dates. From the pre covid crash panic accumulation to today, VWAP is 163, and from the pre July 27th gap and rally, 181.66. I am currently on the sidelines looking for consolidation to occur. We have a lower high of 189.40 from yesterday, and the ATH of 194.45. I am interested in taking a small long position at the anchored VWAP level of 181.66, and adding at 164

GLD can just go higher Given how extreme prior daily RSI was, more upside is very likely. The recent bounce is pretty strong, one can use any retrace for a short term speculative long trade. A meaningful correction without breaking down the important levels in prior post would be ideal to build larger position. As a commodity, GLD options exhibit volatility smile. So for 1-2 days, I prefer (imbalanced) butterfly for directional bet. And vertical spread is pretty good for 1-2 weeks options. Longer term calls really needs patience. In short, we should see more fun ahead.

Metals sold off yesterday because of bond yieldsIn a recent post, I showed the strong correlation between inverted real bond yields and gold and silver: The hot inflation data yesterday and today drove nominal bond yields sharply higher. Bond investors demand higher yields when inflation is hot, which is why nominal yields rose. The rise in nominal yields broke a trend line. Here is the trend line break on the nominal 10-year yield: The trend line break suggests it might be a good time to be short on treasury bond funds like VGLT, since bond prices fall as nominal yields rise-- however, keep reading, because as I'll note later in the post, you've got to beware of Fed yield curve control. The picture for real yields is a little more complicated. The real yields chart above only shows data up to August 10, because the chart lags a couple days. Real yield is calculated by subtracting 10-year breakeven inflation from 10-year nominal yield. FRED's 10-year breakeven inflation rate was priced at 1.63% as of last update yesterday: However, the new CPI number implies an annualized inflation rate in the neighborhood of 6.0 - 7.5% this year. Obviously no one expects that to persist for 10 years, but the 10-year breakeven inflation rate is bound to keep creeping upward after this hot CPI read. The question is whether it will move upward faster than nominal bond yields. If so, then real yields will continue to fall. If not, then real yields will start to rise. It's possible, as a recent Seeking Alpha article argued, that the Fed is already exercising yield curve control to keep nominal 10-year yields in the range of 0.6-0.7%. If so, then we should expect nominal yields to stabilize here rather than to keep moving upward. If nominal yields do stabilize, then the rising 10-year breakeven inflation rate should continue to drive real yields lower and gold and silver higher. seekingalpha.com However, the trend line break in nominal yields suggests that if the Fed doesn't exert yield curve control, then we might see rising nominal yields outpace 10-year breakeven inflation for a little while, driving gold and silver lower. The next three or four days of real yields data should provide an important signal for where real yields and metals go from here. My best guess is that metals will bounce for at least the next day or two, and then we'll see from there.

GLD 1D: New Breakout & PositioningGLD's performance has caught my attention (as well as many others) over the last few weeks. It is hard to ignore that gold looks pretty attractive at the moment given the macroeconomic forces that are at play today. Before we dig into the technicals, let's remind ourselves of the following: Fundamentals: Central banks all over the globe lowering interest rates and printing fiat due to the pandemic. A lack of faith in the political leadership in many western countries (which is very justified). The dismal economic data. Bad economies make the previous two points more relevant. Now let's take a look at the chart. GLD has just broken the 2011 Labor Day Weekend ATH. Keep in mind that is in nominal dollars. If we added inflation to the mix, we are still under the ATH of 2011 and way under the ATH of the 1980s. Nonetheless, the chart seemed to like the nominal ATH and broke right through on strong volume, currently sitting around 4% higher than the LDW 2011 highs. It is pretty clear GLD is set to keep moving up for the time being. We have set a new high on strong volume, which is the first indicator that GLD is set for a new trend to the upside and out of the sideways trade we have been in for 9 years now. That being said, confirmation is still needed. The following points give me hints that we are due for a pullback (in order of importance): Extensive 8 week rally. There are only a few times this has happened in the past, and most of those times resulted in down weeks afterwards. The current price of GLD is around 9% away from the 20-day EMA, which is almost twice the difference in the 2011 highs. This is telling me that we may be overextended on the short term, but long term prospects look good (lots of momentum). RSI is extremely overbought (most in decades). Minor MACD divergence (3.5%). Long positions around the 186-7 level look great, as there could be lots of upside with minimal risk via stop loss management. If the price keeps falling, the 175 level looks even better.
