It happens seemingly overnight, day after day&hellip; And you could leverage it to receive payouts like 269%, 273%, and 1,285% without owning any gold.<\/p>\n<p>All it takes is one simple move in your regular brokerage account.

Buying and holding gold over the long run can also be a frustrating experience.<\/p>\n<p>Here&rsquo;s an example&hellip;<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, gold put in a new all-time high of around $1,920. Gold didn&rsquo;t top that level until August 2020, when it peaked at around $2,076.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, it&rsquo;s currently trading around $1,980.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you see my point &ndash; those price swings can be frustrating to deal with. If you hang on to gold for <em>too <\/em>long, it might not do much for your portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>The secret is staying on the sidelines while gold is moving sideways or drifting lower&hellip; That&rsquo;s when gold is getting ready for another big move &ndash; and it&rsquo;s time to jump in.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes those moves are more technical in nature. That kind of price action can make for great trades, but you must be nimble.<\/p>\n<p>Get in. Get out. Collect your profits and move on to the next trade.<\/p>\n<p>But the best moves happen when there&rsquo;s a fundamental catalyst supporting a technical one, too.<\/p>\n<p>And that&rsquo;s exactly the situation we find ourselves in right now.<\/p>\n<p>The armed conflict in the Middle East has kicked off geopolitical uncertainty, and it&rsquo;s driving investors towards safe-haven assets like gold.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, gold is out-performing other traditional safe havens like bonds, the dollar, and the Japanese yen.<\/p>\n<p>Bonds have suffered a historic beating since putting in a top in March 2020. On a year-to-date basis, the Japanese yen is down over 14.5%. And relative to the dollar, gold has gone up 8.9% so far this year.<\/p>\n<p>My analysis suggests we&rsquo;re not going to get <em>just a few days<\/em> of great action in gold. The move we&rsquo;re about to see is going to be a lot more exciting than that.<\/p>\n<p>You can expect that outperformance on gold&rsquo;s part to continue for the next several weeks if not months.<\/p>\n<p>To get a better idea of what&rsquo;s to come, let&rsquo;s look at gold from a technical perspective:<\/p>\n<p><!--IMG SNIP--><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px\" align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"Image\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.jeffclarktrader.com\/JMU\/images\/202310\/20231030-JMU-01.png\"><\/p>\n<p>Notice that we&rsquo;re currently trading above a cluster of three important moving averages (the colored lines).<\/p>\n<p>Gold has been able to break above the 20-, 50-, and 200-period moving averages. The last time this happened was back in late 2022.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, gold was trading around $1,803. Gold went on to rally from December 2022 to May 2023, gaining nearly 14% in the process.<\/p>\n<p>We could be seeing something very similar happening right now.<\/p>\n<p><!--GREY BOX START--><\/p>\n<div class=\"card bg-light mb-4\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<p align=\"center\" style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><strong>Free Trading Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Have you checked out Jeff&#8217;s free trading resources on his website?
