The SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) has shown remarkable strength in 2024, soaring 40% between January and October. For those who missed the rally, November offers a potential opportunity as GLD has pulled back 8% from its all-time highs, creating a dip-buying scenario. To validate a bullish outlook on GLD, I rely on specific technical indicators that align with my trading strategy. These setups are detailed extensively in my book, ” Mean Reversion Trading .” RSI (Relative Strength Index): When the RSI drops below 30, it indicates an oversold position on a stock or ETF. After this happens, traders need to wait for the RSI to pop above 30 to take a bullish stance. With GLD, the RSI dropped all the way down to 33 nearing oversold conditions and is sharply bouncing back up from there. DMI (Directional Movement Index): The DMI is composed of three lines: DI+ (green line), DI- (red line), and ADX (blue line). When the DI- (red line) is above the DI+ (green line), it indicates a downtrend. However, when the DI lines start changing direction, it indicates a possible change in the current trend. Note that both DI- and DI+ are changing direction, which provides the first indication of a possible trend change. To take a bullish trade on GLD, I’m using a trade structure called a “bull call spread.” The trade With GLD hovering around $242.30, I need to buy a $242 call and sell a $243 call as a single unit. As GLD fluctuates in price, one could build up a position with multiple such spreads. Eg. If GLD drops to 240, a 240-241 spread can be added to the position. Here is my exact trade setup: Buy $242 call, Dec 6th expiry Sell $243 call, Dec 6th expiry Cost: $50 Potential Profit: $50 If GLD trades at or above the short strike (i.e. $243) by the expiration date, this trade could yield a return of 100% on the amount risked. With 10 contracts, this equates to risking $500 to potentially gain $500 -Nishant Pant Founder: https://tradingextremes.com Author: Mean Reversion Trading Youtube, Twitter: @TheMeanTrader DISCLOSURES: (Nishant currently has a GLD $241-$243 call spread expiring on 12/6/2024.)
