Super zoomed in weekly.

I have included AGRO as a handle in the title b/c that's my name on a gold forum. It was taken here thus XTrade. Which has multiple meanings.

About bearish pullback / "we need to go down"

TA can only help us project future price.

In trading, it is likely that after a breakout of $80 + out of a range of $10
There will be some correction.

This does not mean a full fledged reversal.

Let me remind you, the price has been sliding and we have broken major resistance to the UPside.

Wait for the supports (old resistances) to be tested. Then make a decision.

All I see on the weekly is a candle waiting for the next movement.
A hanging man or some other such name.

This...

2100 might be the "target" - but i dont think wed go there before a drop.

sivler chart on daily TL retest and 161.8 fib projection since first wave of uptrend on that support at $27


btw one of PA formations i use is the fake channels.
almost like a hidden wedge but its actauly a channel. gold made one nicely. price uptrends but then slopes and makes a channel at an angle that would more or less suffice for the formation. which it did. same with bearish trends. if it drops then makes a slight twitch in the price's slope of movement - and channels downwards. thats a fake.

In Gold support and resistance trading works well.

Channels and forks as well.

Now.

We are above the channel midline and the bears had a chance to push through.

We have BEEN CORRECTING FOR WEEKS IT IS TIME TO RISE.

There was MAJOR documented conformation of a breach in downward momentum by myself in this thread.

g/l

don't use pivots much on gold only currency.

tip.

if channel midline becomes resistance / sustained, possible 10 -20 usd short to channel bottom,

doubtful but anything is possible.

Hi everyone, have been waiting for a good spot to enter short. Price seems to be finding some resistance at daily pivot. So I have entered a short position from 1,735.20 SL 1,740.50. I have an open target at the moment, I will watch to see where price goes. See chart H1

I find pivots useful on gold, and yes I am looking to target 1,715.20. However there are plenty of resistance points on the way down so will close this trade if the set-up looks to be going against me.

BTW I enjoy your thread very much, one of the best on FF

Thanks,
Glad to hear you speak.

I don't use them on Gold due to my system. I hcave no use.
I do use them on currency, thus, appreciate their value.

I find gold and silver too ERRATIC to be pegged to a pivot. and prefer support/resistance MAs and of course the weekly channel and prevailing trend.

Use them if they benefit you.

Ultimately I find the best indicator is GUT instinct/ after practice / FAILURE a willingness to NOT QUIT and FINALLY success... .
research and learning.
Two words

PRICE ACTION.

When someone calls for a crash to the 1600s and below and the price rockets up 80 + bucks far past 1700. I wouldn't be loading shorts, especially after the SYM T pattern
break ON THE WEEKLY.

Sorry Couldn't help myself......... I would say they are stopped OUT.

Remember the midline.
Short below, long above.

No position = Best position if not in profit.

Midline is used for a no entry basis when not holding cargo.

We will hit my target. No one said it would be overnight.
Just as the triangle took weeks to build it could take weeks to finish.

look to the 21 ma on the weekly for entry in case of midline dip.

if there is a close below, wait and on my advice buy,

Shorting gold as an FX player or a newbie or a PRO TRADER had surely been the LOSING trade of the past T E N Y E A R S
