$GLD / $GC – Gold Poised for Breakout as Hard Assets Flex

GLD / GC – Gold Poised for Breakout as Hard Assets Flex
Gold is setting up for a major breakout, and the broader market is finally catching on to the hard asset trade. Whether it’s inflation ticking up or the never-ending government deficit spending, the market is starting to signal something big.

🔹 Macro Tailwinds:

Inflation pressures + record deficit = a perfect storm for gold.

The dollar is under pressure — metals (GLD, SLV, GC) are responding.

This theme isn’t going away anytime soon.

🔹 Technical Setup:

GLD and GC (Gold Futures) are coiled tightly just under breakout levels.

Volume is steady, and momentum is building under the surface.

A move through current resistance could send this entire trade into overdrive.

🔹 My Positioning:
1️⃣ Options: Long GLD calls with 1-month expiration — slow mover, but clean structure.
2️⃣ Futures: Trading GC contracts on the breakout side.
3️⃣ Silver Exposure: Still holding partials in SLV — it’s following gold’s lead but with more juice.

Why I’m Focused Here:

This is not a one-day theme — hard assets are becoming a rotation trade.

If this confirms, we could see multi-week upside in precious metals.

It’s rare to get clean technicals that align this well with macro.
