Trade Gold? Two Compelling Reasons To Consider It

Here's a great trading quote you may not have heard:

"It is better to trade two complementary strategies that make less, than one strategy that makes more"

I talked about perception just before the Thanksgiving holiday and how it is one of the most powerful forces in the market. The perception now is these markets can and will move higher, perhaps to some of the levels I outlined in my special report on the major indices.
