Too often, I still find myself trading the opposite direction of the experts in this thread. This is obviously a problem as it implies that I am counter trading and fail to recognize the larger trend.

As an example, today I was very bullish after seeing the stochs with D1 and H4 in the OB and M15 close to OS. Price was also approaching some wicks. Well, it turned out to be an uphill battle....

This has made me question if I am focusing too much on elasticity. Alternatively, if I am paying too little attention to other elements. Seņor G already pointed out the reasons for his bearish outlook today, but generally speaking, do you guys have some tips & tricks for how to accurately read the bigger picture?

I think doesnt matter if you are against their trade, because they are scoring in both directions, just focus on youre system and if you miss the first move in general you still can enter on a pullback on PP with elasticity. I think atm the asfest play on gold it s to follow the trend even if we are super high up

It takes abit of bottom up and top down IMO.
What are we above, what are we below...who's done what from where - be aware of session timings...the boys on the block rarely let the previous lot keep all they made
Is price below daily open/pivot - bearish tilt and vice versa...but don't marry a bias

Start with price, any indicators are only following it. Learn your tools. Make projections and see what aligns with what, what pieces do we have e.g. the m30 h&s.
FOR ME - price was quite clearly seeking out the nearest Quarterly mid point this morning...but others will have seen it differently. Don't be afraid to temporarily remove daily pivots, then put back on. Also standing away from your monitor helps.

Hopefully you have enough to go on there. Good luck lad

Watch for H1-H4 candle sync. When both candles close see what kind of candle you have on H1 and H4, check signs of rejection or patterns that give a clue about bull/bear strength, then check the other tools and look for confluences. A lot of action takes place when those candles close in sync at same time so be aware of that and time of day, session etc

From London open Gold PA went to test D Pivot, in that D Pivot zone we have witnessed signs of possible rotation to the upside, PA went to the last NYSE session close and meanders there. I find using the session candles (especially on DOW) of good assistance, I look at that type of analysis too.
Market can into whichever direction but it is good to catch these smaller rides identified by the trading strategy, what if.... if that appear the trade follows, always protected by SL

Congrats to all of you who actually hold physical gold as it broke $4,000 tonight. These days, I wish the Norwegian Central Bank had to mine kroner too.
