I understand your point but I do not trust TA that much or at least TA is not the only decision making factor for me. Gut feeling, TA, Fundamentals, probability, .... all together make my decision. I do not want to open my eyes when GLD is at 210 and say " Oh it seems that GLD is going up because chart is showing that". All things said, you make some and you lose some. It does not mean that for 100% I will make money on GLD but in this market, it is a good hedge specially I am not that optimistic on how things will pan out after Jan 20.I don't know how you work out the probability but incorporatong fundamental info, it's going down even more than your TA suggests
