Every time it seems all the technical, sentiment, and fundamental factors have lined up, something comes along to give GLD new life. After Friday&#8217;s jobs report, I thought it was strange that gold and silver managed gains even as the U.S. dollar index gained as well. I think today&#8217;s moves resolved that mini-paradox.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s move has also finally solidified my sympathies for gold and silver bulls (note I have long maintained core long positions in GLD and SLV as portfolio hedges). Instead of looking for buyers to prove the bull case, I should be looking for sellers to prove the bear case. Since GLD began its huge 2016 rally from 6-year lows, it has bounced back from two 50DMA breakdowns. Those milestones signify resilience. SLV has bounced back from three 50DMA breakdowns and held support at its 200DMA along the way. The burden of proof is clearly on the sellers and bears, NOT the buyers and bulls. My solidified sympathies are putting me back in the &#8220;buy-the-dip&#8221; mode. Just as I prefer to fade volatility ahead of Federal Reserve meetings, I see I need to buy gold and silver trades whenever they waver because of rate hike talk, rate hike fears, Fedspeak, economic news, U.S. dollar rallies, etc&#8230; The path of least resistance is up until prove otherwise. Every time the pendulum completes another cycle, another rate hike from the Fed seems more remote.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the Japanese yen (FXY) was the biggest beneficiary of the ruckus among currencies. The recent upward momentum in USD\/JPY came to an abrupt and sudden end as the currency pair plunged to around 101.4. The CurrencyShares Japanese Yen ETF (FXY) soared back above its 50DMA with a 2.0% gain.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36123\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36123\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/160906_FXY.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/160906_FXY.png\" alt=\"The CurrencyShares Japanese Yen ETF (FXY) makes a fresh bid to retain its uptrend as it closes above its 50DMA again.\" width=\"550\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-full wp-image-36123\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/160906_FXY.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/160906_FXY-300x205.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36123\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The CurrencyShares Japanese Yen ETF (FXY) makes a fresh bid to retain its uptrend as it closes above its 50DMA again.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>I forgot to mention in <a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/2016\/09\/05\/t2108-update-160902\/\" target=\"_blank\">the last T2108 Update<\/a> that I sold my last tranche of FXY put options just ahead of the jobs report. I did not want to risk a soft report taking down my position and wiping out profits with expiration just two weeks away at the time. FXY gapped down for its third trip in a row below its lower-Bollinger Band (BB). Such a move is typically short-term over-extended, so it seemed like a good time to close out my trade and take profits. As the chart above shows, I sold just in time for that day, but FXY managed to gap down in response to what was interpreted as a weaker-than-expected jobs report. <\/p>\n<p>I almost bought FXY put options in the face of today&#8217;s raly, but I decided to just wait and be patient. A full reversal of recent losses seems in the cards, so letting that process play out seems prudent. I have decided I want to be short by the time of <a href=\"http:\/\/seekingalpha.com\/article\/4003981-september-important-dates-capital-markets?lift_email_rec=true\" target=\"_blank\">the Bank of Japan&#8217;s (BoJ) meeting on September 20th and 21st<\/a>. I still expect the Sept $97 call option I bought earlier as a hedge to expire worthless.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime I am licking wounds on my net long U.S. dollar positions. I am not changing the currency strategy just yet. In fact, I think the dollar&#8217;s one-day loss was an over-reaction at least in scale and scope. As a result, I took a speculative long position in USD\/CAD to play at least a partial reversal that assumes USD\/CAD remains caught in a trading range.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36129\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36129\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/160906_USDCAD.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/160906_USDCAD.png\" alt=\"USD\/CAD trades back to the bottom of an extended trading range.\" width=\"550\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-full wp-image-36129\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/160906_USDCAD.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/160906_USDCAD-300x205.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36129\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">USD\/CAD trades back to the bottom of an extended trading range.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>Full disclosure: long GLD, SLV shares; long SLV call option, net long U.S. dollar<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The reaction caught me completely off-guard.
