strange gulch
#

on that trade

sterile oracle
#

i am thinking while its ranging you might get that

#

4hr

#

but its directly in the wrong direction

#

so this will require luck

#

best thing I can say is defend the position and be prepared to kill it and pay for the loss for scalping in the direction of the market

#

its ranging you have a chance

strange gulch
#

that's good

#

i have a quick question

#

@sterile oracle

#

my entry is

#

2319

#

and exit is 2310

#

how much pips

glass solar
#

90

sterile oracle
#

i dont need to use it as I look at it in ounces and dollars

strange gulch
#

let me see

sterile oracle
glass solar
#

how much u got

#

1800$?

open wigeon
#

yall missing out on audusd

sterile oracle
#

so 500 times 1800

#

when they are true

#

in profit i will take 2 dollars at a time

#

and keep entering while watching the market price direction

#

i have to wait for pull backs to do this and layer

#

its my style and I cannot recommend it unless you can read candels

#

do you remember those russian dolls... once doll is inside another etc.... well this is my approach .. a LTF has many STF inside it... so you have to look at the mother..

#

cannot work our how to put this in animal terms...

#

I must reflect

#

lol

#

do the younger generation on here know russian dolls? they are like candles

split night
#

I know russian dolls

#

they have one inside another smaller each time

sterile oracle
#

so now you will understand how I view time

#

1 hr has 15m x dolls inside

split night
#

yes lol

sterile oracle
#

a 15 has 3 5m dolls

#

this is how to view time

#

if you need to scalp in the right direction

split night
#

yeah it is a good way to explain candlestick timeframes

sterile oracle
#

yes

#

then you need to think on the wicks and formations

#

because each candel should tend

#

trend

#

so either one above or one below

#

then you need several

#

so see a pattern

#

never act on one candel

split night
#

yeah i dont

sterile oracle
#

the camel told me this while the donkey was kicking me

split night
#

it is easy to go wrong way

#

i wait for 3 or 4

sterile oracle
#

even lux has a lag

#

so you have to use it carefully

#

start LTF

#

and go backwards

#

before even doing this have all knowledge of news

#

then dont beleive the new

#

news

#

go to reuters

#

then work out when this happend before in the last 3 generations of people

#

and see

#

you will increase your accuracy rate

#

however even if you are right you have to be patient.

#

my best words of the morning GMT

#

if the economic calendar interupts... have some tea of coffee and watch.

split night
sterile oracle
#

well

#

i am writing on context of XAUUSD

split night
#

oh

sterile oracle
#

those that stay profitable will be aware of whats happening

split night
#

i don't trade gold yet

sterile oracle
#

because the price is moving because people are making decisions based on feelings mostly

#

which is myopic

#

so before you enter a trade, look at the politics ... which is basically people talkng until an agreement is made

#

people are also like lizards without frontal lobes of the brain for higher thinking

#

fear or flight.

split night
#

Yeah i understand

sterile oracle
#

at this point... if people are concerned that wrong decisions are being made by their peer they will go to gold. If they have confidence they will invest in other things. This is how people are conditions for more than 3000 years. Even during 1990 I saw women crossing with gold in their clothes during the warn

#

war

#

the more chaos you have the more gold is bought

split night
#

it is funny because if chaos gets too much even gold becomes worthless

#

then it becomes about water and food

sterile oracle
#

China for example are about to buy gold as they will announce their invasion of Taiwan. Nato will have a proxy war which will panic their people

split night
#

I don't think china will invade taiwan just yet

#

maybe 2040-2050

split night
sterile oracle
#

on Xau there has been too much chaos many times.. but it recovers.

#

Nixon caused this and the M95 report was never updated... and now we have liquidity as a balance between producing and consuming economies.

#

if you have a sharp knife and have a gold bar (24k or close is very soft). take a weighing scale pop a bit on and demand their currency or food or house.. and they will tak it.. no a market stall but a bank will.

#

goverments may want to know where the gold came from but then use some gold to employ expertise around you.

sterile oracle
#

longest xau trade I have done....

#

its hard work.. but here we go

I am only a member

sterile oracle

withstand the pressure

#

the is where many are scalping without seeing the long time frame

#

a lot of trading is part of the mind. Patience is everything

#

your book as long as you defend it will stay alive and also as long you you can work out how long to wait.

#

this is something that the best traders know that I have learned from this very forum on.

#

also follow the market

sterile oracle
#

yes... I dont have a gut feeling and cannot see news to all me to share thoughts

#

at the moment based on timeframes, its still donkeyish

but..

#

this could change...

sterile oracle
#

LTF 4 HR

I am watching a 4hr candel pattern unfole

unfold

#

i cannot answer unless the next 2 hour patters inside it show me

#

most of the scalpers are shorting

#

I just defending using camels

#

I use hedging a lot to defend when my trade entry was not perfect.. However its solid on a long term time frame. If required with out ego I will kill the trade or try to service the negatice trade with many scalps

#

this principle is not used by many

#

but it ensures you protect.

#

without emotion.

#

as the 15m chart start to recover in my eyes, I will watch

dawn sierra
sterile oracle
#

maybe not like that lol

dawn sierra
#

haha

sterile oracle
#

its a double water melon scenario

#

on 3 m

#

this means you cannot move or it could hit your head

#

but I can see a V sign in there

#

so..... I wait

#

The melon is telling me to stay long during this turbulent period

#

I have remembered I am hungry

#

2332 remains

dawn sierra
sterile oracle
#

to all those that went camel i hope you got out

#

with profit as a contrarian trade

echo kiln
#

For, the daily on Gold give me more clarity
So I would need to see a good measured pullback for any potential short positions

sterile oracle
#

This is decent analysis

#

but...

#

it has to consolodate over night.

#

examine your wicks

#

there us a for hour period before your analysis can become true

#

I simply wold use short positions to defend now

#

and wait for donkey / bull etc to come

#

i see this on a 4h

#

i am looking in the wicks in detail

echo kiln
#

Ill be waiting for the ostrich and the alligator on this set-up

sterile oracle
#

i was trading ... no time to code lol

#

that picture could be an ostrich

#

those wicks have me thinking of donkeys and thats a 4 Hr

#

the 1 day is very Donkeyish

#

this is why i am defending my donkey positions

#

There is little news

#

so the 1D will drive the 4HR

#

back to normality

#

and this will allow donkey scalping

#

forgive my linguistics...

#

🙂

#

@echo kiln I can code for this scenario i think. its like a grey area

echo kiln
sterile oracle
#

has lux done this or should I code it?

#

there is no promt to action based on lux

#

let me think on this

#

it does not look that difficult as I could seeing happening before it showed me

echo kiln
#

show me the entire chart and let me see

sterile oracle
#

Jaw (Blue line): This is a 13-period SMA, moved 8 bars into the future.

Teeth (Red line): This is an 8-period SMA, moved 5 bars into the future.

Lips (Green line): This is a 5-period SMA, moved 3 bars into the future.

When the three lines are entwined, it suggests the Alligator is sleeping, meaning there's no clear trend in the market. However, when the lines are diverging, it indicates the Alligator is eating and thus suggests a trend. Specifically:

Upward trend: Lips (green) above Teeth (red) above Jaw (blue).

Downward trend: Jaw (blue) above Teeth (red) above Lips (green).
#

this right?

#

this code exists

#

i am certain I read it

echo kiln
#

ah, MA crosses, a ton of variations on TV and Lux has a few interpretations of MA's in the library

sterile oracle
#

lol I will apply it

#

it will make my chart a little more busy

#

i feel like i am turning on and off indicators to view the market

echo kiln
sterile oracle
#

yess

#

trying to keep it simple

#

I was thinkting that tradingview should upgrade themselve to only show most important indicators

#

and turn others off

#

as some form of master setting

#

so you can see what you need to see

#

simplicity

echo kiln
#

its called, turn the ones off that you dont want
Simple

sterile oracle
#

yes it could simpler...

#

they have code that does it for you

#

a ranking system

#

given the pair and market an activation of a certin model

#

certain

#

thats what I would propose

#

This is not that impossible

#

@azure lake there is a possibility to rank lux code in terms of velocity of activation. Which would influence certain trade decisions. Posited idea.

#

I hope you dont mind

sterile oracle
#

yes hence the word posited idea

echo kiln
#

Basically, you would use the indicators that are important to you and dont use the ones that are not.
No need to place 30 indicators on your chart, when you are just going to enable 2 of them.
Have different templates or layouts is another way.

#

Just an idea

sterile oracle
#

that would be good if it can be automated.

#

you would need something auto matic to help

#

sometimes you need only 3 indicators

#

I saw something yesterday

#

that lux could benefit from watching

echo kiln
#

No need to strain the charts resources, just add the indicators you want on your chart.
Just my opinion.
What you may be requesting is a chart with a library of indicators that you will only use a few in reality.

sterile oracle
#

yes

#

with a view to simplicity

#

remember I am an XAU trader

#

but many here trade many pairs.

#

it means that different indicators are more important to others...

#

the expanded thought process is that an algorithm is written on market velocity and pattern

echo kiln
sterile oracle
#

indeed

#

then make a product set

#

first start with the most popular.

#

then

#

expand

#

target a mind set of the member

#

are they swing or scalp

#

beginner or experienced

#

then think of time

echo kiln
#

Ill taregt my own charts instead

hey it was just an idea but thanks for reading my suggestions instead. Always a pleasure and you are a great trader and teacher.

China's recent surge in gold buying, which has been sustained for over a year, is influenced by a mix of economic strategies and geopolitical factors. The People's Bank of China (PBoC) has been steadily increasing its gold reserves, highlighting a strategic move to diversify away from the US dollar amidst global economic fluctuations and the rising tensions in international relations. This move is seen as part of a broader trend among BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) to hedge against potential economic sanctions and currency risks associated with heavy reliance on the US dollar.

Additionally, the Chinese domestic market has shown a strong inclination towards gold investment, driven by the local economic downturn, especially in real estate and stocks, which has reinforced gold's status as a safe-haven asset. This trend is evidenced by significant activities on the Shanghai Gold Exchange, where gold withdrawals have been at record levels, indicating robust consumer demand.

This national and consumer-level enthusiasm for gold in China is likely to continue influencing the global gold market, supporting higher price levels as both the central bank and private citizens accumulate gold reserves​ (Kitco)​​ (DW)​​ (Kitco)​.

#

Economic Data Impact: Recent U.S. economic data has been positive, particularly in terms of unemployment claims which were lower than expected. This positive economic outlook tends to decrease demand for gold as a safe haven. Additionally, the OECD's raised forecast for global economic growth this year contributes to a less favorable environment for gold as investors turn to riskier assets​ (TradingView)​.

Interest Rate Expectations: The expectations around U.S. interest rates remaining high also apply downward pressure on gold prices. High interest rates increase the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like gold, making it less attractive compared to yield-bearing investments​ (TradingView)​.

Market Sentiment and Technical Analysis: Technical indicators and market sentiment are currently showing a bearish trend for gold, suggesting that prices might continue to decline in the near term unless significant economic or geopolitical shifts occur​ (DailyFX)​.
#

Given these factors, the current outlook for gold prices leans more towards bearish, implying that prices might not rise significantly unless there are major changes in economic indicators, monetary policies, or geopolitical tensions. To keep track of potential shifts that might affect gold prices, it would be beneficial to monitor economic news, central bank announcements, and global geopolitical developments.

#

This my fellows as what I have read

#

my camel has said this

#

Market Sentiment: The sentiment around gold is currently mixed, with a bearish inclination due to strong economic indicators from the US, such as positive unemployment data, which typically lessen gold's appeal as a safe haven. However, persistent buying by China, seen as a move to de-dollarize their reserves, provides a bullish counterbalance​ (TradingView)​​ (Investing.com UK)​.

Chinese Demand: With China continuing to buy significant amounts of gold, and given the strategic diversification away from the US dollar by the People's Bank of China (PBoC), there is a sustained upward pressure on gold prices. This could be an important factor if the trend of increased purchases continues, as it might signal a more prolonged bullish phase for gold​ (Kitco)​​ (DW)​​ (Kitco)​.
#

Technical Analysis: If the technical indicators suggest that gold prices are currently undervalued or if there is a strong support level that has historically triggered price increases, this might be a good opportunity to leverage a bullish position.

Economic Indicators and Global Events: Keep an eye on any upcoming economic reports or global events that could influence market sentiment. Positive economic data typically drives investors towards riskier assets, reducing the appeal of gold. Conversely, any negative shifts could increase gold's attractiveness as a safe haven.

Portfolio Diversification and Risk Management: Since gold is often used as a hedge against market volatility, ensure that your investment in gold aligns with your overall portfolio diversification and risk management strategies. It’s important not to be overly exposed to a single asset class.

Long-term Perspective: If your investment strategy is long-term, the current fluctuations might be less significant compared to the general upward trend influenced by major buyers like China.

Stay Informed: Continue monitoring the market closely. The dynamics around gold can change rapidly based on geopolitical tensions, economic data releases, and changes in market sentiment.

Given these points, if you are bullish on gold, you might consider maintaining your position while staying alert to any new developments that could impact market conditions. However, it's crucial to also consider risk management strategies to protect against potential downturns.

I sleep differently. I typically take about 4 hours some times 6 hours.. however, I will take naps at certain times for about 14 minutes If I feel a little tired.

#

I can sleep forever when I expire! lol

echo kiln
#

14 minutes? Not 13, not 15, but 14

#

LOL

sterile oracle
#

Morning @icy wraith !

#

i tried different nap time periods.

#

and I ended up chosing this period and have done it for so long that I dont need an alarm

#

it simply is the time my body awakens

#

I read some information while I was trained on human sleep cycles.

#

and I worked out that everything should be a factor of percentage of the time you sleep for. Typically most people will try to accumulate 6 hours... I have found that this can be done with REM for 1 portion. I find the rest of sleep suplurfous and if you need a nap.. take it

#

@echo kiln I have noticed you do not sleep much either. You are in the US.. meaning you are nocturnal or some form of terminator machine

Based on the recent market analysis and news, gold prices (XAU/USD) have shown mixed signals, and the outlook remains uncertain as the markets await further cues, particularly from economic indicators and central bank decisions.

Gold prices have recently flirted with the $2000 level, indicating some bullish sentiment in the market. However, these gains have proven to be short-lived as the dollar strength has also been a significant factor in capping gold's rise​ (DailyFX)​. The Federal Reserve's actions and statements in the upcoming period are crucial. Market analysts are focusing on the Fed's approach to interest rates, which could either trigger a bullish explosion in gold prices or lead to a downturn if the sentiment shifts towards stronger U.S. economic growth and higher interest rates​ (DailyFX)​.

Moreover, the mixed sentiment in the market, with some traders anticipating rate cuts while others see a continuation of the bullish trend in stocks, adds to the complexity of predicting gold's next moves​ (DailyFX)​. The scenario is quite dynamic, and traders should keep an eye on upcoming economic data releases, especially those related to the U.S. economy and monetary policy, as these will likely be key drivers of gold price movements in the short term.

For your trading strategy, it would be wise to monitor these developments closely. Given the current uncertainties, maintaining a flexible stance and being ready to adjust positions based on fresh economic insights and market sentiment could be beneficial. Stay updated with the latest economic indicators and market analysis to make informed decisions.

the Fed are about to mess things up later this afternoon

watch carefully

split night
#

I hope all that above is how I’m going to beat the market today?

#

With 100% success rate

sterile oracle
#

thats only possible if you see the future

#

part of trading is accepting losses but minimising them

#

you must have winning trades that out perform you losing ones

#

hence there is risk to reward

#

every time you lose a trade... count yourself lucky as you could have lost more and you can live to fight another trade

#

if you win

#

then each week bank it.

#

my humble view

#

There is not a single trader who can be 100 percent right

#

a skilled trader can get over 75 percent

#

and then you measure by your profit factor

#

each good trader will be able to declare their profit factor

#

this is part of back testing but each trader knows efficient they are

#

you can also consider taking 50% of your profits and leave them to compound on your balance.

#

this is the correct approach in my humble opinion to trading... many are very much more knowledgable and skilled than me. so consider this and reflect.

#

if you want to understand compounding google it... you may find it interesting

strange gulch
sterile oracle
#

hence my report last night

#

if you have donkey trades open protect them by scalping the camels

split night
#

But I was joking

#

I know 100% is not realistic

#

You only need 2/5 wins a week as long as the reward is greater than the risk you will still be in profit

#

5/5 would be great but unrealistic

#

3/5 still means being consistent 60% of the time

#

2/5 is 40% and more achievable

#

But with a 2:1 RR with 40% you can be profitable every week

#

This is my aim

#

To take trades with 2:1 RR and achieve 40% success rate

#

Heck even 1 out of 2 trades a week could be a swing trade so it’s easier to trade

#

1 winning swing, 1 winning scalp and 3 loses at 2:1 you will still profit

Back testing is ok but I don’t think you can beat a forward test yes it’s time consuming but it’s worth the wait and you learn so much in the process

thats the thing i would like be shorting as well but you never know when gold just scams bears

#

if it breaks 2280 i will focus on shorting

#

thats my bias for now

sterile oracle
#

i made a report earlier this morning GMT

#

its based on the end of the asian trading.

#

I will create now one based on the end of the solo uk so I get a feel for the crossover.

mental sparrow
#

Hope it does go to 2280 🤣

sterile oracle
#

you can do lots of scalps but they could mount to losing trades

#

the daily chart

#

this has crossed

#

the 4 hour shows this... its camel milk

#

@plucky stag

#

this is 1hr.. it shows how you waited.... for your trade in donkey style...

#

technically a watermelon did it so that was a SPF trade for you

#

based on your 40 pips that was because at this time..

#

a watermelon hit a donkey

#

at 15m

#

this was the V shapre

plucky stag
#

i dont even know what that means

#

what does watermelon do

sterile oracle
#

its a total break down of a pattern of candels

#

it has signal break failure involved in its code

#

its different from "allegator teeth" also

#

if it connects with an animal it detects what you will see a "break"

#

which I note you traded well a little while ago

echo kiln
#

I need a meaningful retracement before I look for shorts on gold

sterile oracle
#

@echo kiln good morning

echo kiln
#

morning

plucky stag
sterile oracle
#

I am waiting for jefferson

#

I am fundamental driven

#

but use technicals within context

#

its my style

plucky stag
#

yeah same

echo kiln
sterile oracle
#

I look at people first bring it to markets then try to use technicals to confirm my idea or direction

plucky stag
#

I use techincials to confirm my fundementals for entry.right now this thing is just ranging and no direction

echo kiln
sterile oracle
#

but then you have to control your entry

#

the longer the TF the more your book has to withstand a trade

#

this is from my apprach

#

I do not enjoy holding trades

#

and view each trade as a loan

#

due to leverage

echo kiln
sterile oracle
#

but I remember you stated you trade on very small TF at times if you spot an opportunity

#

is this your style?

echo kiln
#

I use SL based on the charts, not some arbitrary formula based on my account size.

#

I swing and I scalp

sterile oracle
#

I do also

#

but may I ask in what order

#

do you swing then take scalps

#

or do you scalp

echo kiln
#

no order, i see what i see and then just trade

sterile oracle
#

but on error you swing?

#

I work on a defence mechanism for when my scalp goes wrong

#

I can have all the ideas possible.... but I have to defend the margin

#

to get the overall profit I am willing to take small losses

#

Its a form of hedging

#

this method can produce good returns or make you break even.

sterile oracle
echo kiln
#

I dont care if I lose.

#

Part of the business

modest herald
#

may the donkeys and camels bless you today

sterile oracle
#

they will both kick me lol

#

and then a watermelon will hit me on the head

modest herald
#

make sure to eat some melon then! 😂

sterile oracle
#

hopefully kebab is there

modest herald
#

yes, yes

#

happy trading for all

sterile oracle
#

this is my personal style

#

This is what banks do

#

banks have an 8% economic capital by law

#

so no bank can actually ever pay every customer..

#

hence the term "run on banks"

#

94 percent of money is tied up

#

but at least the goverment can bail them

#

there is a 2% slack

echo kiln
#

We actually dont know what banks do.
We are just common folks trading at home, in front of a television, eating chips and drinking soda, chatting on social media. We really do not know what the people in business suits do everyday at the banks. @sterile oracle

sterile oracle
#

I understand

#

you are quite right

#

and they drive the liquidity

#

I left to have a Soda aka fizzy drink - chips aka crips enjoy trading.

#

🙂

#

I know what they do

#

at least some years ago

echo kiln
#

do banks have camels on their charts?

#

🐪

sterile oracle
#

the have cash cows?

#

for bailouts

#

i am attempting to make the aligator teeth while trading... but realised a crocodile can kill an alligator. Can anyone from Florida confirm, its very important for trading

#

remember I am a simple farmer of trading and mostly forget thing @echo kiln

#

things*

#

even how to type

echo kiln
sterile oracle
#

this is not easy coding imo

#

as its visual

#

fib, sma
SUM1 = SUM (CLOSE, N)
SMMA1 = SUM1/N
Subsequent values are:
PREVSUM = SMMA(i-1) *N
SMMA(i) = (PREVSUM-SMMA(i-1)+CLOSE(i))/N

#

SUM1 - the sum of closing prices for N periods;
PREVSUM - smoothed sum of the previous bar;
SMMA1 - smoothed moving average of the first bar;
SMMA(i) - smoothed moving average of the current bar (except for the first one);
CLOSE(i) - current closing price;
N - the smoothing period.

is this it?

let me add a crocdile to it

i will add crocodile

#

trading 1m is very dangerouse

#

dangerous

plucky stag
#

it is not dangerous if you know your levels

sterile oracle
#

yes

neon ore
plucky stag
#

you dont just trade blindly in 1 min

sterile oracle
#

but you really have to be experienced

echo kiln
sterile oracle
#

and know the direction

#

its like a warning disclaimer

#

my signals with lux are very much optimised for velocity

neon ore
sterile oracle
#

it looks like it forms some of my code

#

code complete

#

it looks like a camel is not as fast a camel on 1m

#

but its way more important

#

many thanks... I fixed the origina code to increase velocity

#

also got rid of the SMA as it looks messy

echo kiln
#

just joking

sterile oracle
#

I wanted to say thanks

#

I will never know what the banks are doing

#

but I was in one and know how they think

#

thats a 5 minutes solid scalping

#

and if you look really carefully there is a crocodile there

#

the 3 min is my best optimised

#

on optimsation i have seen this

#

its not as good as the rest of the animals being a reptile. But I would trust it

#

i made myself laugh

#

put some signals on there

#

thanks for the inspiration @echo kiln

#

I am starting to think to change the picture to an ostrich.

#

i could even add web hooks to it

#

lol

noble crag

anyone trading today ?

Low liquidity though

noble crag
#

Gold 1H is so clean 😮‍💨

sterile oracle
#

do you scalp

noble crag
#

Yeah

sterile oracle
#

so scalp the ranges be patient

#

my though

#

it will still make your money

#

if your are swing

#

do not do anything

#

just watch

noble crag
#

Where you usually scalp ?

#

Reversal Bands ?

sterile oracle
#

i use a timeline approach

#

i am not contra

#

so I look at a direction

#

on LTF

#

then i look for consistency given that I have completed my fundamental research..

#

this basically tells me buy or sell

#

then I reduce the time fram

#

at this point for every pull back I will enter

#

it means my scalping can be slower but the percentage rate of success can be higher

#

if you know the long time trame direction even up to 1 day

#

you should only scalp in that direction

#

waiting for the pull back before

#

otherwise your margin will be hurt

#

my humble thoughts

#

on XAU there are times you have to look at a 30m chart or 15m

#

to understand

#

on all the other ones you can take guidence of direction from longer time frames

#

when XAU is fairly doing nothing ie.. less new you can make a range

#

and just go up and down with it

#

but dont remain in a trade long or you will kill your book

#

my 15 m shows me this which means the market open will cause some chaos

gold is pretty much flat today

I traded nq instead

sterile oracle

i am not so sure

#

you are a donkey long trader

#

I am seeing xau dropping

#

you have not as I understand shorted or camel.

#

based on my memory

#

I wrote the implications some time last night on XAU

#

and the news articles supporting

#

based on your style, you could consider waiting as the Donkey make come at consiliation

#

consolidation

i am sorry

#

my fingers are useless.

3 cammels 2 donkeys and a few watermolons

I also have a

#

this shows me the market structure fell over then a camel has come

plucky stag
#

i did have some shorts on gold

sterile oracle
#

I remember you say only gold increases?

plucky stag
#

however i focus mostly on longs

sterile oracle
#

yes i remember

#

so your style is on history

#

XAU in the fullness of time wil decrease

#

per dollar

#

thus increasing the value of XAU

plucky stag
#

right now gold is still bullish only consolidation and correction

#

you can take shorts but you never know when it goes up again

sterile oracle
#

but I see in long term xau will go up

#

but we have a pit period

#

like a 1 month pull back in theory

plucky stag
#

i am already hearing taiwan invasions ...

sterile oracle
#

gold is like a slow animal going down

plucky stag
#

you never know bro

sterile oracle
#

but when it goes up there can be huge movement

#

yes China has started to move their boats

#

they are in the south china sea

#

but they did not take action yet

#

taiwan is a US cultured place.

#

and so I have to reflect and watch

#

or visa etc.

#

i am also watching the fishing in the china sea

#

phils that are fishermen are being harrased by chinese....

this will be a slow change to gold

on xau

you cannot apply this as the gold is insane

strange gulch
#

already done a good profit

strange gulch
#

i want a risky trade

#

risk is around 25% of profit

sterile oracle
#

ermmmmm

#

let me give you some information

#

so you can read and reflect

#

If the Federal Reserve's influence is removed from the equation, the prediction for gold prices (XAU/USD) by 12:01 AM tomorrow would primarily depend on other global factors:

Geopolitical Developments: Without the Fed's monetary policy as a factor, gold prices would become more sensitive to geopolitical tensions. Any escalation in conflicts or political uncertainty, especially in key regions like the Middle East, could push investors towards the safety of gold, potentially driving up prices.

Global Economic Indicators: Economic data from other major economies, such as the European Union, China, or Japan, would gain greater importance. Poor economic performance or instability in these regions could enhance gold's appeal as a safe haven.

Market Sentiment and Technical Analysis: With fundamental economic cues from the U.S. central bank out of the picture, traders might rely more heavily on market sentiment and technical analysis to guide their trading decisions. This could increase market volatility, as reactions to short-term events and trends might be amplified.

Currency Movements: The strength of the U.S. dollar against other major currencies would still influence gold prices. A weaker dollar generally makes gold cheaper for holders of other currencies, potentially increasing demand and driving up prices.

Investor Behavior: Investors' overall risk appetite and their response to the absence of guidance from the Fed could cause significant price movements. In uncertain times, gold could see increased demand as a form of financial insurance.

Without the stabilizing guidance of the Federal Reserve, the gold market might experience increased volatility, with prices more directly influenced by immediate global events and market sentiment. Investors should monitor international news closely and be prepared for potentially swift changes in gold's market value.

what do they symbolise?

is this some form of pull back idea?

lol

echo kiln

hahahahha

sterile oracle
#

I will make this on a 3m chart and optimise for scalping

#

you want me to code to stop REKT happening

#

Educational Insight: For new traders, hearing stories of others getting "REKT" can be a powerful educational tool. It underscores the need for ongoing education, understanding market forces, and the importance of developing a solid trading plan.

#

this cannot be applied to trading

#

was this an insult @echo kiln and if so what do I need to be instructed

sterile oracle
#

have you insulted me?

echo kiln
#

we need the REKT symbol

#

we dont have that yet

echo kiln
#

LOL

sterile oracle
#

ah ok

echo kiln
#

we need a rekt symbol

sterile oracle
#

so I am thinking

#

i just learned the meaning of it

echo kiln
#

you have winning symbols, now we need smash rekt

sterile oracle
#

ok

#

so

#

can you give me 3 bullet points

#

to give me context

#

what would symbolise a REKT

#

i can go nuts on it

#

but what is the shape

#

?

#

The principle is its a stop loss calulator

#

based on its defininition

#

Stop-Loss Orders: Set strict stop-loss orders to manage and limit potential losses.
Position Sizing: Adjust the size of your trades to manage risk effectively. Smaller positions might be prudent given the high-risk nature of this strategy.
