{quote} Price got rejected at 4850 resistance with a high of 4865 but then still building up pressure to break past it. We see if it breaks out of resistance and find its way to 4900-15. On the look out for a breakout candle to 4900-15 or rejection candle to 4760-58 either way for scalps. {image} {image}

Oh yea. You cannot time the yen moves with precision. Made me look like a clown yesterday and messed with my psyche.
Unfortunately happened today.

INTUITION

In trading, intuition is not a magical, innate gift, but rather a "trained gut" that develops after thousands of hours of screen time, experience, and pattern recognition. It acts as a form of rapid, subconscious pattern recognition, allowing experienced traders to sense market shifts, momentum changes, or potential reversals before they become obvious on charts or indicators.

When Intuition Comes Into Play:

  1. After Achieving "Unconscious Competence": True, reliable intuition typically emerges after 2-3 years of active, consistent practice. It is built on a foundation of mastered technical or fundamental analysis, not in place of it.
  2. When Markets are Rapidly Changing: When conditions are unclear, highly volatile, or moving too quickly for slow, logical analysis, intuition helps make faster, real-time decisions.
  3. As an Early Warning System: It often appears as a "gut feeling" that a trade "feels wrong," signaling to a trader to exit or avoid a position, even if all technical rules are met.
  4. During Nuanced Market Contexts: Intuition is used to refine entries and exits, such as recognizing when momentum is slowing or identifying a false breakout.

Key Considerations for Using Intuition:

  1. Differentiate from Emotion: Intuition is calm and based on past experience, whereas emotional trading (fear/greed) is impulsive.
  2. Do Not Use Early: For novice traders, acting on "intuition" is often just gambling or emotional trading, which can lead to significant losses.
  3. Use as a Complement: Intuition should support, not replace, a structured trading plan and risk management.
  4. Validate via Journaling: To ensure it is real intuition, traders should document their gut feelings to review if they were accurate over time.




In summary, intuition in trading comes into play when a seasoned trader is "in the zone," allowing them to navigate complex, fast-moving markets by intuitively recognizing patterns ingrained in their subconscious through vast experience.

*My weekend analysis on Gold.
1. We may likely see a move to 5000-5030 but first new resistance 4900-15 level has to be broken. I envisage a touch at 5000-30 level probably to fill the weekly red bar after that aggressive run and retrace to/below 4900. But if price maintains/closes above 4900 level then be sure of some further move/stay up.

2. Failure to break/move past 4900-15 in the week price could revisit 4760 and 4675 levels.

So my next week's range levels - 4675 - 5030 .

Look forward to see how PA unfolds next week and adjust/scalp accordingly.

Trading Is 85% Psychology...

Trading begins for everyone as a pure pursuit for money, but those who stick to the activity long enough begin to realize that trading is far more than that. It is an activity that demands that you work on yourself, before you work on the market. The trader must first find a way to become more disciplined, more principled, more patient, more calm, more steadfast, more resolved. The trader must get himself to display less ego, less anxiety, less impulsiveness, less senseless risk taking, and less gambling. All of these things are accomplished inside of the trader, not inside of the market. Trading forces the trader to look inward, to detect his flaws. It demands that the trader improve his weaknesses and accentuate his strengths before any reward outside of himself can be achieved. This means that success in trading is determined on an 85% or higher proportion by the trader's psychology, their inner world. Trading is NOT about buying something for $1 and selling it for $2, or technique, or even money. It is about becoming a better you and then taking that better you into the market for the reward. Watch, listen, and learn, as Oliver's delves deeply into the essence of psychology in trading. "The fastest way to trading success is to put aside the fear of losing your own money. It is this fear that often stands as the biggest obstacle to making it".

So my week low levels (4760 - 4675/0) maintained. Price has rejected the 4670 (confluence) level with the doji. Now wants to go back inside the channel? Lets see if 4756-60 acts as new support to push price back up. Back into channel, will take long scalps. If price gets rejected on lower channel, will take short scalps. Is 50-50 on price direction.

Had my first scalp on this pair in the early hours. Price making a pullback and could likely reverse. Will be on the look out if that happens and take short scalps to target level.

Quiet day for Gold, still within 4760 - 4670 low range and failed to break back into channel. Doji was a decoy to make it look like price was going to gather momentum to the upside and yet could not still break past 4760.

Lets see what tomorrow brings to the charts.
