Matt, thoughts on gold's breakout?

    I pm'd you the comment below, but thought it might be nice for other members to hear anything you might have to say.

     I have no position in gold right now.  As you know, I can't buy the physical because I don't have that kind of money, so it'll have to be GLD.  

    GLD is above the upper trend line, at least so far, today.  Assuming it holds, what do you think about this break, especially given we're still in the middle of summer?  Maybe a small position, like a 1/4 size?  At some point I'd like to have 10% of my IRA in GLD.  Any words of wisdom?

     

    Also, what do you use

    Also, what do you use to get the COT net short EOW figure?  I found this site, which provides EOW COT long and short (I suppose you just subtract the former from the latter to get net short):
