I had 4% profit this week but I have huge DD which I was trying to close at BE or minimal loss at the price of 1950 but price failed to break support. But this is part of trading , let’s see what happen next week. Happy weekend to all of you .

heres a fun fact chart i made and posted this to an irc chatroom couple years ago when biden became president to counter the idiotic rhetoric by some knuckleheads in the room that biden will kill the dollar LOL...we argued politics after the close of trading every day LOL... only one that killed it was reagan but he's their saint so they dont blame him LOL lets keep politics out of it but democrats are good for the dollahhhh if biden could get 3 terms somehow he could prolly get it back to 150 LOL {image}

i made a reference to this chart earlier today answering mrfanciful

heres the original screenshot with the date on the upper left LOL

i should go back to that irc chat and rubb their noses in it..i love doing that to conservatives but especially to republicans

For years I have been scalping the EURUSD on the M1 and have been succesful.
Now a couple of weeks been trying to do the same on this XAUUSD, but for some weird reason it is so tough!

Any pointers from any of the esteemed traders in this forum on how to manage this better???

It feels price moves up and down on a farth somehow, hahahaha.

Or maybe go for very small TPs? Like 21 pts. or so.

My sentiment - price took out yesterday's low. We retrace now (london manipulation) and resume downwards in a few hours and end the day in 50's. My opinion, trade safe. {quote} NFP reaction was knee jerk at its finest.

It's the high volatility in the market. Gold is more news/event driven than any other pair out there. It's basically a traders market it's not regulated by governments or central banks, it's more like a free for all market. Anyone can move it. Since it's considered a safe haven asset, it's very much driven by news/global events and such hence the high volatility. TA is more often than not thrown out the window, it's mostly traded on bias/risk sentiments.

You would have noticed on Friday how so many bulls were freaking out, many were going long and getting stopped out? Market was bullish up until that day but it changed on a sessions notice when JPY news broke out, lot of traders missed it (DXY direction did point to bearish gold up until that moment though) many traders were hoping for upwards momentum to resume but the market simply took a u turn and stopped everyone out, such is the volatility of gold.

Personally I doubt anyone can tell you how much you should risk how much your profit targets should be. I suggest you stick to the lower timeframes 1M/5M/15M for the moment, find liquidity levels on maybe 5M chart for you TP's until you get the hang of gold's volatility. Good luck!

Hi, can I use the (MA) of 200, 50, and 9 for swing trading? Please advise; I am new and struggling to understand charts patterns

if youre so green you dont know enough about ma's you should definitely stop trading and do some learning youre guaranteed to blow up youe first account thats just the way it is however youll be able to hang in longer before you do so if you educate yourself first.

dont follow some goofball on a website or youtube or even people in here unless they post their trades to back up their analysis and then dont try piggybacking them without reverse engineering what it is they do if they dont want to tell you when you ask them

theres tens of thousands of good analysts even on this site but just a handfull of good traders LOL

and if youre in this much hurry you must be buying challenges at prop firms which means you'll probably lose even more money

you picked a profession thats the hardest way to make easy money

learn a trade or become a lawyer/docter cause chances are youll never make it trading cause youre so impatient you havent even learned the basics

looks all levels are perfect as wess saw them playing . 1956 good support , but not better than 1948 if Head and shoulder in intension and lower towards 138 . though expecting correction up or new high but after a top failure more correction possible this leg down direct or next time .
any way it was a good analysis ! take care

Thanks for the advice, brother. I am an engineer and my job pays me well. Recently, I made the decision to buy a home using my hard-earned money of $120,000. However, I later realized it was a foolish decision to exhaust all my savings on a single property. Now, at 27 years old, I want to invest a portion of my income from my profession. Trading has always intrigued me, and I'm giving it a try for the first time. I started with $200 and managed to make a $208 profit despite a $40 loss. Encouraged by this, I invested an additional $700 and took a sell position at 1956 in the gold market. As you can see, I'm still learning about trading. Although $1,100 isn't a huge amount for me, I'm taking it seriously. I tried paper trading, but it didn't provide me with the knowledge or seriousness I needed.

I will take your advice seriously and make an effort to learn.

Hey there, I'm all about learning and getting better at this trading stuff. I don't fall for scams I dont know whom your mentioning? but its came from my trading platform Technical analysis something, I just started my trading account on June 17th, and I'm really digging into it. Reading books, watching other traders, studying those patterns, and trying to be learn about risk management.
I even posted a screenshot from my trading platform, and I gotta say, I'm curious what you experienced traders make of it. Seriously, don't hold back! I can take it, even if you laugh at my newbie moves. I'm here to learn and grow, so any advice on what I might be doing wrong is totally welcome
