How to use the GLD levels

Each plan lists a pivot, the level nearest the last price, with resistance levels above and support levels below. Draw the levels on your chart before the US open. The pivot is the first price to watch: holding above the pivot keeps the resistance levels in play, and losing the pivot points at the support levels.

The levels come from the regular session, 9:30am to 4:00pm ET, so they describe the hours when most GLD volume trades. The recap above shows how price behaved around the last session’s levels, told from that session’s pivot.

The glossary defines every term in a plan, and the sample plan walks through one real session from the levels to the close. Every GLD plan is on the GLD plans page.
