Several times market has proven that it's not really about big sl,but rather entry, when volatility is high like these days you have to factor it in your sl by making sl a bit flexible and not too tight like 50 pips, naaa that was two years ago not currently but a 200-250 sl is okay for now if your entry is on point, but sl above 300 pips is too much and it will hurt you long term if you check risk to reward because it will way your reward to the downside, but hey you can do what feels best for you.

{quote} Yes i think so, I got Stopped out big @ 5177. It seems the bear is over. i lost big today. Initially i am pretty sure we can continue the bear based on the pattern. However its wrong.


Market has to close above the green area for bulls to take over again, but market has started showing signs of bullishness and any sell now looks very risky unless market fails to close above 5178 in few hours time

Yes bad entry can lead to disaster. my entry this morning is in the middle of nowhere and i act emotionally just because it reached 5150-160 area that i have planned to sell initially.

My view is the bear should be strong enough so thats why i take early sell. but well this is why we need to manage risk.

Actually from the information gathered from the studies i did on the chart, gold was still bullish , it just decided to come and fill a 5000, what others will call imbalance but with entirely different understanding, and these untapped zones I'm going to pay more attention to because when market clears liquidity as it unexpectedly did from 5598 to 4404 , it finds support at this areas andthis is what I wish I knew earlier.

Dude, my SL is around 2000-3000 pips, and I have been fine most of the time.
Gaining 10%-30%/month of capital is not bad.

But recently, I increased my SL to 5000 - 15000 pips when news (high impact) with 1:1 leverage

In my case, I started with 20k, opened 0.01 to 0.1 lot per position with max opened total of 1 lot.
But I know someone with much less capital and higher lot, but they use tighter SL, and to date, my gain percentage already beat them.
Because you know, small loses undermine big win. Imagine losing $200 5 times, and then get a big win of 1,500, effectively it put a gain of only 500.

My method have weakness too, I lost big on the last few months, but it only happen like 2-3 times in 5 years, so it doesn't matter.

I have to even hide this to prevent people from seeing but like how are you even saying this, it means you don't trade with a strategy you just enter buy and allow it to run in losses till it comes back in entry , this is the worst advice to ever give someone in trading.

You if you are in loss you wait for it to come to your direction without taking a trade and someone with smaller capital with adequate knowledge will make much much more money than you do .
Do you know how difficult to get $500 in most part of the world especially Africa, so how can people even risk that much money,
you can do it but don't post it in forum or group discussion .

Meaning you are willing to lose $10000 on one trade , if I'm correct like 1000 pips sl with 1 lot

Bro, this thing I found recently erh , it's just crazy, i decided to back test it and went all the way to 2023 and if you catch a buy at January of every year and have patience you could hold till June with a gain of 20000 pips in this recent volatile market, you can even hold a till the end of the year , like the way people will make money, it's just time.

That is possible with small lot size using no leverage. I do this with my micro account.

Well, I thought this is a free thread and that is a strategy too...
If you learn statistics, you would know that 70% of the time, gold is always going up. The 20-30% is that gold on sideways after decline.
Why? Because if you learn economics, gold is a hedge instruments against inflation, so in layman terms, it will almost always rise.

So yeah, I can definitely say that this is my strategy, I prefer to make 10%/month (in some rare cases less than 10%) from my capital than having many trade with SL hit and then winning huge just to realize that all those loses are eating up my profit.

Definitely, already happened on the last few months, that's why I'm increasing my SL now. since then, I already gained back almost all of my loses.
Doesn't mean that I am better than everyone, I know some people with better trading capability than mine.

I learn from this thread and other thread so I can refine my entry point, you know that 1,000 pips or 10,000 pips can be hit easily if you don't have proper entry and money management, but I don't want to have unnecessary loses.

Keywords: learn what is Expected Return ~ Probability of trade Going Up - Probability of Trade Going Down, you can see that for gold, this is almost always positive.
and learn about Money Management, you can't handle 10,000 pips if your lot too much or even 250 pips if you open 2 lots on $2,000 account (if your broker permitted)

I will allow it, you said free thread yh but no one can use any words here especially attacks, there is a limit though it's free space .
gold will always rise and is yet to even rise more in the long run but I will not advise anyone to go with this idea especially now you have increased lot to 5000 pips , it's very bad ,
did you see the sell from 5598 to 4404 and were you holding a loss? so if you use 10000 pips on 1 lot and you lose one, that is $100,000 loss and 5000 pips is $50,000

When gold drop this huge, my SL was still at around 2000-3000 pips, so yes I incur loses, but I don't do entry at 5600s or 5500s as you can see that there is lot of bearish divergence occur on the chart.
My entry was at around 5200-5300 at 0.01 lot each (I entry multiple), and then I reentry again at 4800 - 4400 with 0.01 lot each.
So I plan my entry, reduce my lot. Still hit my 2000 SL but no problem, I got gain from other entry.


Edit: my strategy always employ 90% position on Buy position and I rarely take Sell.

okay i somehow understand and this what I wanted to also do when I was losing without any good strategy but when I saw that price could start from $1 and move to $100000 like bitcoin i changed that mindset and decided to study from the frequent losses and I had to go offline because I didn't have money to trade again and in debt too but thankfully i learned a lot you could imagine whilst not trading and now I have obtained enough information that will do greater things in this market.
