GLD trade ideas

Short setup at $179 on GLDMy attention has been brought the past couple days to gold. It still hasn't reached my lower targets and we're getting much closer to September where I think the guidance is suggesting a longer term low. I'm still learning though as all my ideas come from my work dowsing. I do, however, like that it's been trending down into that date. There is a suggestion of some serious selling coming, so I want to journal this one. I'll look to get in short around $179 today, assuming it reaches it and my readings still suggest a reversal down. I will give it 3 weeks, but don't think it's going to take that long to hit my lower target. That's it.

GLD - is that it?Very very rarely will I preemptively get into a position before price breaks an MA of merit. This is one of those times. With GLD under the containment MA of 2 days of highs for 8 days, the containment ratio of 4+ is very rare and I would argue a case where one might get preemptively long. Let’s see what happens the rest of the week maybe into next. Catching the falling knife is rarely wise but this is the one case where perhaps the knife has already hit the ground.

Levels to trade GLDContrary to popular belief, gold is a risk asset, and as such, cannot serve as a reliable store of value. It also doesn’t offer better protection from inflation than equities. That is true for the long term; however, in shorter periods, the yellow metal can be a profitable trade, specifically at times of declining real interest rates and when the economy is weak. Besides, gold, with its zero-to-negative correlation to equities, can help achieve a broad portfolio diversification, which is important, as each asset class can help mitigate different risks in times of increased economic, political, and market uncertainty.

Something to watch in GLDThis is really early, but I know people like to check on gold and it's been fairly choppy and dull. I attempted an outlook for the year kind of reading on it in April with dates for lows and highs, etc. The results of the dates were off a day or 2 usually, and weren't necessarily reflective of the bigger swings. I will keep playing with this idea though. So, I checked in for an update, and there is something consistent from that reading to today's, and that is that there is a buying opportunity in September. And I also get a consistent low number to watch for, and that is the price of $173-74. (4% from here). There can by some seasonality in the 4th quarter in gold, so this lines up as well. The specific date (plus or minus a couple days) is Sept. 12th. The reading in April was referencing September as the "best buying opportunity", so at least that is consistent. I will set alerts at $175 to keep an eye on things, and may post this idea again closer to the date. In the mean time I suppose you could try to short it because the advice is for multiple days down.

GOLD to OIL prices the RATIO ANALYSIS ( and meaning )GLD is an ETF tracking gold futures prices across a blend of durations. USO is a similar ETF for crude oil. I was interested to see what the ratios look like and considering the trading advise of buy low should I be trading and bartering gold to get oil or viceversa. It is applicable for be because I am in part a commodities trader and has some activities on the leveraged forex market. On the daily chart dressed with a set of two long term anchored VWAP standard deviation lines , and some horizontal static resistance lines added, it is obvous to me that the ratio is currently sitting on the mean VWAP band for support confluent with the lower trendline of the ascending megaphone pattern which is typically considered demostrative of increasing volatility. I conclude that if I am a barterer I should trade my oil for gold. If I have gold only and dry powder I should increase my gold holdings. If I prefer trading oil I should short the market. This is because the ratio is set up to rise. The means that gold will rise or oil will fall or some hybrid combination of that. My entry here is when the volatility on the indicator is green and crosses over the running average. This is a simple demonstration of how charting with TradingView can help a trader make well- grounded and profitable trading decisions while lowering risk and making profits more probable. What do you think of this analysis? What are your agreements or disagreements with it?

GLD is the high volume EFT that is tracking the gold bullrun which started two weeks ago on July 3rd after a downtrend for two months starting on May 2nd. This is not a leveraged ETF as so a bit less volatile than JNUG or GDXU. On the 2H chart, I have added a VWAP band line setup anchored into the pivot high. On my analysis: 1. GLD is ascending through VWAP band lines in a VWAP breakout. 2. Volume is steady 3. The Price Volume Trend Oscillator went from a diminishing negative/red histogram into green on July 5th. 4. On the zero-lag MACD, the lines crossed while under the histogram reversing a descent on July 17th and marking the end of a minor correction of the uptrend then confirmed by those lines crossing the zero-line the following day. I conclude that GLD is set up for a long trade. While others might simply take a trade of stocks I will use call options to take a long position. My target is $190 between the second and third positive standard deviations of the mean VWAP. I will purchase 50 options contracts for about $37 each expiring August 4th. I will hold all of them until July 27th and liquidate half of them at the high of day on that Thursday expecting Friday to be a down day. The remaining 25 contracts will be sold at the rate of 6 contracts per day until the overall position is closed. Overall, I expect to realize 200% in profits over the 12-13 trading days in the trade. I plan for a 15% stop loss and expect the trade to be above break-even with the first stop loss advance which I expect will be on Friday.

GLD , a bullish gold ETF LongGLD on the 4H chart has downtrended for 2 months. However, the supertrend is that of a gradual trend up as shown by the green ascending line. The two indicators point to a reversal. The MACD shows a cross of the K / D lines under a positive histogram and impending cross over the horizontal zero line. The Chris Moody with dual RSI plots shows the RSI on the weekly time frame in black to be trending down from 70 and settling at 50. The daily time frame in blue bottomed at 29 and is now 44. This is a bullish divergence of the RSI as compared with the price trend. Overall I expect a reversal with a trend up targeting $192 which is the approximate pivot high of early May also confluent with two standard deviations above the mean VWAP anchored to 2/1/23. The stop loss is to be set below the ascending support at $176. Accordingly, a potential loss of $2 until the stop loss is raised to break-even once price gets to $182.00. After that, the trade will be both risk and stress free.

GLD - Bullish OutlookIntermediate-term formation pattern appears to be a wave extension completing soon followed by a move higher. Looking for stronger support at the 40 week moving average a few points lower but willing to buy a pilot position at this level. My main GLD position is an Iron Condor option position selling puts at the 165 strike and calls at the 200 strike. Adding shares at this level give some protection should GLD surge above 200 prior to the option position's expiration. Downside risk appears to be down to the 160 level should the Long Term Reverse Head and Shoulders formation build out. More GLD updates should price break lower.
