My guess will be a ranging market in the LONDON session, until the series of high impact news in NY session.

{quote} I’ve completed 25 trades in my little project. Unfortunately, I didn’t hit the target 8% return, and my balance is back to square one. I don’t know how you manage to stay so consistent — I’ve got a lot of reviewing to do this weekend. Next week, I’ll be starting another batch of 25 trades. This time, there’ll be no manual intervention: no more 50/50 trades. I’ll let each position run its course — either take profit, break-even, or stop loss. {image}
This week's sample outcome clearly highlights the importance of sticking to the rules, which naturally helps develop consistency on a subconscious level.

In my next 25 trades, I’ll be focusing on the following:

  1. Being comfortable with using a smaller stop-loss (SL).
  2. Allowing my take-profit (TP) targets more room to develop—pushing them out with patience and confidence.
  3. Mastering the art of waiting—resisting the urge to act impulsively or trade with an itchy hand.

No secret.
Stay committed.
Stay focused.
Stay consistent.

One can think out of the box.
But to be successful, every effort has to begin from internally in the box.

Looks like it will be difficult to do any trade today.

Over the years, I have come to the view of only putting on a trade at some significant key levels.
The best and easiest scenario will be trading with the trend.
But there are so many levels to consider, which one is considered significant?
Well, I don't know. What I know is that the higher time frames levels would play a more important part.
I will only come to know of it when I participate in the process.

Let's do a review on gold for Friday.
At that point in time, ie London open, I only know this.

The smallest higher time frames that I would consider is H4 (or some times maybe H1).
That is not all. Levels are also found at month, week, day High Low Open.
In addition there are sessions High Low Open.

Trend and significant key levels.

For simplicity below are some H4 charts.
Immediately there are problems. Different brokers using different servers.
The H4 candles are different from each other.

We work backward for analysis and self examination.
Price rejected and bounced up from the black horizontal line.
Go to the smaller time frames and see for yourself how would you enter a trade there.
And also see whether you would enter any trade at the blue horizontal support line.
This is hindsight so be honest with yourself.

If you do your homework diligently, you will come to realize that not all higher time frames levels can work out.
So we can introduce something to lessen/reduce the failures.

Enter a trade at a key level that coincide with a market open session (maybe session lasting a period of 2.5 hours after market open)
This involves patience waiting and focused watching price action according to your own trade set up signal.

All these were already mentioned under the 3 Rules in post #1.
Most traders would just glance over them, not knowing the full depth on the application of them.

According to the following schema, where would you refine/adjust the HTF level, on the LTF and the reason for your selection of the refinement point in LTF. Please
