Many people will think this post is insanity, but I'm simply revisiting, and zooming on a very interesting setup I had detected some time ago. This is a ratio chart of the S&P500 index compared to Gold. The risk off sentiment is reaching a very vivid extreme here, and like anything else, it trends with Time at Mode concepts. I'm interested in monitoring it since we're very close to a projected target for it, and also, close to the time expiration of the last uptrend signal.
If we see a drastic turn once either (or both) targets are hit (time/price), we might be able to capture a great long term entry in this ratio.
Refer to related ideas for the monthly view.
Cheers,
Ivan Labrie.

Target hit, one day left.

Right on the last day, we see a turn...I think this is it.

A break under yesterday's low would seal the deal.

Let's see how this one progresses. I hope people managed to catch the trade, the idea was to buy S&P500 and sell Gold, or buy S&P500 with gold if you had longs. Currently a profitable trade. (same as buying oil with gold, which I did take myself)

Two new lows...the deal is sealed.

Anyone took this pair trade or the oil/gold one?

This and oil/gold are acting great as pair trades. Not a bad idea to hold the pair setups. I'm flat atm, on those, but I am in correlated trades.

Trendline about to break down.

Trendline held for now.

Trendline finally crossed...now if we close below it, this is a big deal!

Closed below, now retesting, pay attention, gold might be a short.

Time to monitor this ratio closely. I suspect the market is turning down here, if you trace a trendline you might get some timely warnings here.

it looks like gold wants down and stocks and oil wants up?

Yes, I haven't found anything readable about gold miner stocks, probably late to get in on those.
Sorry.

this trade you suggested is really cool, do you have any sell signal for gold now? or still playing the pair trade?
IvanLabrie

I'm flat gold at the moment.
Good time to collect profits from long stocks and short gold.
Gold can rally a bit more here, actually, we have a long signal.

A retracement nto this green box is a good buy, stop loss at 1240.

Gold looks good, do you think GDX and GDXJ looks better?

Did you take that one?
I don't follow those instruments really, would take me a considerable amount of time to elaborate a forecast.
I prefer silver right now.
