Gold’s Whiplash Is Telling You Something

If gold feels harder to trade lately, that’s not an accident.

Short term, volatility is expanding. Long term, the bullish case hasn’t gone anywhere. 

That combination is exactly what’s creating confusion for a lot of traders right now.

On the chart, the pattern is obvious. 

Overnight gaps higher. Intraday sell-offs. Then the process repeats. 

That’s not the kind of environment where you size up blindly and hope the long-term thesis bails you out.

It’s a market that rewards patience, flexibility and knowing when not to press.

That’s why I’m approaching metals differently right now — and why the upcoming live session with Geof Smith and Nate matters more than most traders realize.


Why Gold’s Volatility Matters More Than the Trend

Long term, I still believe gold goes higher. That view hasn’t changed.

But in the short term, the constant gap-and-fade action is a warning sign. 

When you see this kind of behavior, it usually means there’s friction under the surface. In metals, that often comes down to tension between paper contracts and physical delivery.

That disconnect creates sharp intraday reversals and fast sentiment shifts. If you’re early or overexposed, you get punished. That’s why I’ve been hesitant to lean aggressively long despite the broader bullish setup.

What I’m waiting for is simple — a reduction in volatility. When price stops rejecting higher levels intraday, that’s when the odds improve for pressing size. Until then, capital preservation comes first.


How I’m Trading Gold and Silver Right Now

That doesn’t mean I’m sidelined.

I’m focused on shorter-term opportunities where risk can be defined clearly. 

Instruments like SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) and iShares Silver Trust (SLV) allow for tactical positioning without committing to a big directional bet. 

Smaller vehicles like the Amplify Junior Silver Miners ETF (SILJ) can offer quick upside when momentum appears.

This is a day-by-day and week-by-week market. Quick pops. Controlled exposure. No emotional attachment to positions.

There’s also a time and place for inverse exposure when setups align, but the key is adaptability, not stubbornness.

During Thursday’s live event, Geof Smith will walk through why the recent dip in gold may be misleading and what he sees lining up next. 

Nate and I will break down how we’re thinking about positioning in this volatility — and what needs to change before traders can safely lean in.

Gold isn’t broken. It’s just demanding better discipline.

Don’t Let The Recent Gold Dip Fool You!

Geof Smith is the man who perfectly predicted the Gold Supercycle back in 2023…

And now he’s seeing the setup for a third mega catalyst that could make gold’s recent 150% run look like a drop in the bucket.

At 1 p.m. ET on Thursday, Geof, Nate and I will go live to reveal all the exact conditions that could trigger the next run up.

Geof will also walk through the trading “glitch” I plan to use to take advantage of this move — the same approach that delivered a perfect win rate last year.

If you want to understand what’s lining up, why it matters and how he’s positioning for it, you’ll want to be there.
