{quote} I wish I removed my TP, honestly.
I left my 3rd GU short position in place, but adjusted the TP to 1.3340, EU TP open, it was purely based on price manipulation post PPI.

...they only have to mention the Strait of Hormuz and you just know the oil price is gonna shoot up, despite Opec's promise of more supply. Some talking heads on Tv talking about $100 per barrel soon. What do they know, lol? Anyways, the likely gap and volatility likely won't just be restricted to oil, so tomorrow could have some great trading opps. From trading the inevitable 'closing of any gaps, at some stage, but not necessarily immediately,! to other opportunities. It's important every day (if trading technically,) to know what your t/f's of interest are doing, and where the potential support/res/sbr/rbs factors are on relevant t/f's, but tomorrow may be even more so. You never know what's gonna happen at any time, and tomorrow may even just see the initial reaction and then markets get 'back to normal,' and take it all in their stride, -or- something more long-lasting, in terms of reaction to w/e events. We'll see.
Trader with an Edge.

A question that I have is everyone online knows gonna rally up and batter the open and everyone (most online influencers) are going to fullport longs on gold and shorts on indexes...this price move is highly anticipated by people so how much likely it is that the move will be played out as expected and won't just wipe out everyone longing the open...just talking with a curious learning theoretical way

{quote} It's a good point you make. You'll get those that short any gap as soon as it happens, and those that fear to go long thinking the gap is gonna close at some point etc.. Personally, I never trade the potential for closing of a gap as the reason to go in, although it may add to the potential confluence of the set-up. You gotta just stick to your own Trading Edge, and play it as usual, but obviously going against a strong uni-directional move with this fundie news/event behind it, (if that is what transpires on your instrument of choice,)...
Nice words sir thanks alot
Then I guess we will have to play by intuition and just watch and don't get lost in fomo

My WTI sell trade from 67.30 is going to be in big trouble ... That's 1000 pips drawdown due to market gap... I should not have left it over the weekend.

The GBPUSD price action on the daily time frame is sideways at the 1.34750 intra-day horizontal resistance. Technically, we may not yet see feasible directional momentum. Although we may still see further southward price action, this will likely be short lived.

I may be wrong. Trade safe and prosper.

I also betted on peace for humanity like many others, we can be morally proud of that trade, the pump may be artificial and return to equilibrium in not so long days/weeks, basing off the world reactions it maybe already over, whatever the official story is thats being told now, is written in history for us to all follow and is the pure truth

{quote} Yeah, I'm in a short already. Just didn't sell the fake rips near 3580. And it won't even get near there until it breaches 3400.
Well, trade closed in profit at 3410 gap down. Just waiting for gold to open to cash out there.

May have been an error in judgment on your part. I trust that you'll recover it all and more. Selling metals and oil this period may be dangerous.

I just lost the prop account now due to 800 pips gap at open despite staking less than 1%. This is brutally harsh. Lesson learned.

We are at war, very difficult to pick tops and bottoms, I'll just manage my GU short position, hoping for 1.3340. I expected dollar bid Monday, but not because of geopolitics. I'm still short EU, looking for 1.1730, which was my original target last week. Let's see what this week holds.

Daily Mail, who spoke to Trump directly:
"It's always been a four-week process. We figured it will be four weeks or so. It's always been about a four-week process so - as strong as it is, it's a big country, it'll take four weeks - or less," the British newspaper quoted Trump as saying.

So come the expected war at last !! No any serious reactions arounds , no serious gain or positive reflections , all in extreme caution and usdx either a great temporary spikes up or down !!
Gold perfectly stay high and more highs as defying weekly and monthly shooting stars!
Oil may spikes up 84/110 indicating acceleration of war in middleast for few months !

DXY_H4. My trading range for the dxy is a low of 97.320, and a high of 99.05. I will therefor trade and manage my risk trades accordingly.

In the current geopolitical scenario, I see risk flows out of AU and NZ into EUR. So I'm keeping long EURAUD, targeting 1.6740, and long EURNZD, targeting 1.9850.
