EF5 replied Jun 11, 2019I’m really liking that volume profile indicator of yours. I have a couple in Thinkorswim, but yours is special because it incorporates multiple time frames. I see a big advantage in the way it displays for you so I may have to try coding something ...

EF5 commented Jun 11, 2019That’s a good point, QE will probably come earlier than most expect. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Fed tries some sort of yield curve control like the BoJ has done.

EF5 replied Jun 11, 2019Thanks for sharing your thoughts on platinum, I learned quite a bit from reading your post. I’m curious, do you think we will ever see the day where platinum is worth more than gold again?

EF5 replied Jun 11, 2019Goldman Sachs came out today saying they don't expect any rate cuts this year while 2 are currently priced in. If they're correct, and they may be, it would seem exceedingly bearish for gold. Thoughts?

EF5 commented Jun 10, 2019This makes me really really want to buy some GLD calls. I'm hesitating though because the fundamental case I see that could get us to 1,500 isn't my base case. I'm leaning towards thinking this pattern doesn't work out, but I wouldn't want to be ...
