Long Gold/GLD | Multi-Year Resistance to Break In 2018 Long

SPDR Gold TrustArca

Description

The falling Dollar in 2017 helped push Gold prices back up to the $1200-1300 Oz. For the second time in 2 years the market is entertaining higher prices, and with momentum firmly upward. I would not be surprised to see a significant break above these levels.

Don't you want to wait until it breaks the multi year resistance then buy on a retracement on the good ol' support that was resistance at some point?

Seems kind of risky to place a long at resistance.

@Investorito, yes that could be a less risky trade. In my experience the move from a price based support/resistance (as opposed to trend line based) is fast and sudden, and it may not retrace before a large move is complete. I prefer to buy on the first major close above this level. The steadily ascending wedge gives me a little more confidence it wont fail to break this price next time!
