On Monday, I felt that we were close to a reversal in Gold in my old trader bones! So I made this trade LIVE in the 360 Wall St chat room. It’s 0 cost so take advantage of this and subscribe now!

And the catalyst for a bounce was potentially ahead, the FED rate decision could have been the reason for a change in trend for Gold and that proved to be the case! When the dollar begins to weaken that’s the signal for Gold to potentially bounce! Here’s what happened to my Trade Idea this week!:

UUP is the dollar index. When I looked at it on Monday it had already started pulling back and showed signs of weakness, perhaps profit takers or insiders getting out ahead of the FED meeting?

GLD was forming a base yet GDX had not done so.

 If GLD did form a base and move higher i would expect GDX to do the same so this presented a good risk/reward opportunity! 

I got long the 24 calls expiring August 19 in GDX, and after the Fed meeting Gold and those options in particular exploded. Here’s what happened:
