Quick Note on Gold
September 8th, 2009WARNING: This is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any financial instrument.
UPDATE: USDX Prints 77.22 Intraday
*SPLAT*
Next leg down.
UPDATE: USDX Prints 77.46 Intraday
Gold longs, I’d strongly consider some defensive September and/or October puts on GLD with that major resistance overhead at $1032.
To those of you who are going to try to get through $1032 heavy and unhedged: Good luck.
If it breaks down again, it’s not like gold bugs aren’t used to being foiled… yet again. If your outlook is short term, know that a breakdown from these levels could be interpreted as a double top, which is very bearish.
UPDATE: Gold Over $1000, U.S. Dollar Index Must Break Down Here
77.49 is the support. It’s at 77.51 right now.
Say it with me now: LEEEEEEEEEAN!
—End Update—
As gold is toying with $1000 ($999.40 right now) some emails are coming in. Please see this recent post. $1000 isn’t a big deal. $1032 is a big deal.
If the USDX does not break below 77.49, gold longs, watch out.

Maybe its time to sell one or two or more of my collectibles.
Sure looks tempting.
