03/15 – ETF Trading – GLD, UGL

Good morning. On Friday, GLD moved lower and you took your second position in the etf trade. For the leveraged trade, UGL also moved lower and you took your second position in the trade. Should these etfs move lower today, take your third position in the trade.

Otherwise, our exit signals are triggered when the etf closing price is greater than it’s MA(5), or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI(2) is greater than 70.

Updated charts posted below. All trades are at the market close. Please trade responsibly!
