GLD – I Lay Out Stock Replacement Strategy on CNBC’s Options Action

by Dan March 7, 2011 5:49 pm • Commentary

[private][private]As a follow up to my post mid last week I wanted to reiterate a simple vertical call spread in GLD either as a stock replacement strategy or merely a near-term bullish bet on gold….

-My thinking is simple, first I think the market is gonna get smoked in the next month or so and gold will do very well, and in the event I am wrong (which is very possible) i want to define my risk on the bullish bet, as GLD has had a big run since late Jan (+9%)….the last 3 times since Oct that GLD has tried to break the $140 level and failed the stock has sold off about 5%…..
