There’s a reason I keep coming back to gold every Friday morning during Opening Playbook at 10 a.m. ET — and it’s not because I’m stubborn.
It’s because the fundamentals driving this gold supercycle keep accelerating. And with a strategy that’s 3-0 on the books and five open positions — I’ll be 4-0 today at the close as long as everything continues as planned — already at 50% profit collection, you don’t fix what isn’t broken.
This is a routine I follow with precision. Every Friday at 10 a.m., I place a new gold income trade, and that consistency is part of why this approach continues to work.
Predictable execution paired with reliable fundamentals creates dependable opportunity — and that matters just as much as the trade itself.
Central banks continue to buy gold at levels that are through the roof, and this year is already shaping up to be another record setter. When the biggest players in the world are accumulating aggressively, it reinforces exactly why this weekly strategy has staying power.
Why the Gold Supercycle Is Just Getting Started
When you look at the charts, the gold supercycle picked up momentum in 2022. But it was 2023 when gold started breaking out again, and that timing lined up with the surge in central bank buying.
This isn’t retail traders chasing shiny objects. This is sovereign nations making strategic moves away from the dollar and into hard assets. Countries across the board have been increasing their gold reserves, and the pace keeps climbing.
Even when I referenced the updated chart earlier this week, the takeaway remained the same — central bank demand continues pushing higher, creating the kind of long-term price support that makes this environment ideal for structured income trades.
The Weekly Income Strategy That’s Undefeated
Here’s how I’m playing it: Every Friday morning at 10 a.m. during Opening Playbook, I place a new gold income trade. The structure is consistent, the execution is clean, and the results speak for themselves.
To execute this strategy, I place a bull put credit spread on the SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) ETF. First, I identify the fund’s 50-day simple moving average (MA) to determine my target price.
Then I select an expiration date approximately one month out, then sell-to-open a put option at the strike price closest to the 50-day MA while buying to open a put option at the strike price $1 lower.
I enter the transaction as a “net credit” limit order to collect the premium upfront — the position reaches maximum profit if the fund remains above the sold strike price through expiration.
Right now, I’ve got five open positions, and half of the premium has already been collected. That’s not luck — that’s a disciplined approach supported by powerful macro forces and a chart that keeps confirming the trend.
As long as the setup holds and gold keeps respecting its 50-day MA, I’m going to keep running this play. With central bank demand driving prices higher and the technical picture staying intact, there’s no reason to step away from something that’s working this well.
If you’re not showing up on Friday mornings, you’re missing the real-time breakdown of how I’m structuring these trades and why they continue to deliver.
This is about execution backed by data, discipline and a market that keeps rewarding the long side.
So yes — I’ll be running the next trade this morning. Because when the fundamentals are this strong and the track record is this clean, you stay in the game.

P.S. How Jack Created the Most Consistent Daily Phenomenon
Jack Carter has done it!
His brand-new, unconventional daily setup is currently on a 15-trade winning streak and still blazing hot.
Here’s the backstory:
After a popular daily options strategy flopped, Jack decided to tear it down and come up with something better.
Doing this led him to discover what’s arguably the market’s most consistent daily phenomenon.
To leverage it, he deployed a setup that turned conventional trading logic on its head – which birthed what he now calls Upside-Down Options.
When he told me about what he was working on, I asked to be one of the beta-testers.
And here we are today.
Not only did he double his initial cash target from $250 to $500 daily (on a $2.5K stake)…
But this new Upside-Down Options setup has also won 15 trades in a row and counting.
That’s why I’ll be joining him LIVE at 7 p.m. ET on Sunday to unveil this new discovery to the world for the first time ever.
He’s calling this event the Upside-Down Options Summit, keep an eye out for more instructions after you register below because Jack has a special gift for you.
