Engineering The Trade - October 17, 2025 - Engineering the Trade: Gold Markets and Quantum Computing in Focus
Update: 2025-10-17
Description
In this episode of Engineering the Trade, host Jermal Chandler and guest Errol Coleman discuss recent market volatility across multiple sectors. Gold dominated conversation, with both traders noting its unprecedented nine consecutive weeks of gains—a streak that has never reached ten weeks in history.
Chandler maintained a short gold position using MGC contracts, expressing caution despite the metal's strong momentum. He employed a strategic approach by selling GLD put spreads during dips while maintaining his overall bearish stance on gold.
The discussion shifted to quantum computing stocks, particularly IONQ and RGTI, with both traders noting significant volatility in these names. Coleman pointed out that RGTI's CEO recently sold shares, questioning the sustainability of current valuations in the sector.
Both traders observed unusual market conditions with "bubble" discussions across multiple sectors simultaneously—from quantum computing to energy, AI, and precious metals—creating both opportunity and caution signals for experienced traders.
