With options expiring Friday March 26th and a hefty number of options at the $1,100 level this would be a great time to catch a good dip in the gold price.

    Seriously, don't know for sure, but I am expecting an opportunity to backup the truck.

    it will be important to first determine that friday is not the beinning of an even bigger dip. before I buy a dip I always first look for upward momentum.

    As the OP said...keep your "finger of the trigger" until after this week.

    OP, are you buying paper or physical gold? Little more information - strategic wise please!

    For me physical gold only, paper will eventually crash. gold eagles only. volume from tulving, singles on ebay below spot with cashback, ebay bucks and Mr. Rebates.
    If you must do paper I would recommend it only be kitco.com pool account. Easy in, easy quick out 24/7. For short term players I would choose kitco.com pool account over physical. I do hold some silver and palladium in kitco.com pool account but monitor prices and news daily.

    Perfect. I'll cash in my CLCT call options that triple after the big one and buy gold on a dip. I may retire in Sept. --Jerry

    I am hesitant to rain on the parade, but the novices seem to be taking this much too seriously. Please don't bet much on this event. Gold may well dip, but it might well rally, or the option folks might go for the pin (no movement at all) to make the maximum number of options go out worthless. There is no consistent way to tell before it unfolds.

    If there was a sure fire way to profit at each expiration, it would tend to stop working after three or four such games. Any statistical edge is likely to be a tiny one. Often times expiration day goes opposite of the bias from the last time. However, that is a lot like betting on red on the roulette wheel just because there were two black's in a row. The human mind can find patterns where there are none.
