Updated

short

looking for some resistance around here to short it to tp. only with some wick or 1hr/15m close showing some resistance then entering
Note
if 1hr close above entry or breaks on higher high, cancelling the trade
Note
i pre jumped in short
Note
entry not best, 3.722, sl 183.910, if still slowly goes up, i'll increase sl. tp 183.072
Trade closed: target reached
closed 1700 bucks went in 1.4x orders
Note
thats how we do it, 1.5hr win thank you london
Note
this month start almost 1k profit
Note
lol my call to short was almost at the top, there was even slightly better entry if didn't enter at my call. should have made the sl shorter to have more lots in it. lol. but nvm. im happy, have about 2.5 RR to lose from here, likely won't cash out till end of month.
Note
im looking for price to break 182.991 on GJ, then retrace up, then short that all the way down to next zone below
Note
if drops hard, i'll then i'll look for the "ABTR" strat, i think price is high enough to look for these 2 trades if breaks the zone. if not maybe tmw i'll look for another short if price pumps back up
Note
yep this started already broke zone, this retracement on 15m
Note
im thinking of 183.130 or .307 zone, if rejection i'll short it
Note
will watch 1hr closes and 15m closes
Note
ouu damn, maybe i missed a good entry, will watch
Note
both acting too fast, not sure if can post a entry
Note
will watch this 1hr close i might just fomo in abit smaller order like 0.8 order. to short hold it too 182.223 or lower. sl 183.175, around
Note
im in on this GJ trade, not best entry but sl i put above a resistance.
Note
the swing low on this 15m, is a last support., if breaks that, or closes under that very easy to hit our tp. in fact can go lower by double. but i will be happy with that tp.
Note
about 2.41RR, we want to see a 15m close lower then previous low. is key
Note
see comments on last trade loss,

im looking at this 1hr close, in few mins time looking to short this
Note
im in on this GJ short
Note
not best entry. tp 182.934, sl 183.778
Note
this was the retracement i was talking about, i wanted a retracement up, but i entered at the bottom
Note
it is looking very bullish i may exit if i feel last minute any pump
Note
i entered 1.2 orders
Note
increase my sl just in case to 183.824
Note
holding to see 1hr close. looks ok, just my entry sucks
Note
this or next 1hr candle must be red, if not get out
Note
if not it means sellers lost power to push down
Note
red candle here, i like it
Note
1hr bearish, 4hr bullish, daily is bearish still. so why im shorting. we have some double divergences on 1hr for bullish, but i think can hit our tp or near it.
Note
based on the speed of the down, i'll see where to sell. if super down fast, i might increase my tp lower. if slow or 2 or 3 candles to go down, i'll just take it at our tp or abit higher
Note
1hr green candle not so nice, might take a while. amybe london market closed so no movement, also we got boe gov bailey speaks news tmw. in UK afternoon.
Note
im going to close trade before 3hr 10 mins, swap fees too high on GJ and im in with 1.2 orders.
Note
here we go, buyers seems given up at this higher price
Note
btw, i've taken a holiday break over new year, need some time to reset, my win rate since dec has fallen, about 55% winrate if including jan. but my RR is still good enough to be pretty profitable. lets see how it goes. mid jan, and feb.
Note
see 1hr close, any big wick support, just close it, 1hr close i cannot accept support at this price. maybe double top then back down, but its too strange already if 1 candle is a spinning top or hammer up
Note
london maybe set alot of limit orders to protect price. i can't see the limit orders but i can see the market orders on my dom
Note
15m double top is ok
Note
want to see sellers realise the trying to break a mountain, then give up
Note
i don't think there is much seller market orders, i can't see any, or any absorption, only sellers weak at this point only. i think once sellers push, it will go down with a ABC strat down
Note
ok there is some absorption from sellers at this price, usually big buyers/sellers see that they will stop buying, and they give up.
Note
damn trading is just fascinating man, you have auto buy/sell bots, freeze orders (hidden limit orders), limit orders and counter market orders, all at place. , if just watching is nice to watch and see how price plays out man
Note
shs on 15m??
Note
we have more buyers right now, but candle still red and lower then before.
Note
wow these are bad signs man
Note
triple top or shs is max i will accept,
Note
damn ended up green candle might want to reduce your sl, so you lose less incase some random pump
Note
still holding
Note
less then 2 hours left before server swap
Note
finally sellers market orders kick in
Note
damn looks like alot of limit buy orders, might as well close this early, going to look for price price to do so. i honestly think will win this by tmw. but just fees not worth it.
Note
going ot try to get as low as possible and sell off
Note
next down im closing
Note
closed, 230 bucks
Note
looks like going back to my entry then retrace back down , but i won't wait for it, nice trading day, up about 1550 today, could have made more on the xau short, same strat that we won on GJ short previously. nice wins
Note
good sell guys, would have got sl, it was going down way too slow. and way too many limit orders. i think xau can go down to 2020, but i don't think i want to trade it. lowest point i think for now is 2004.64 for xau.

want to see 183.476 if any support i'll like to long it,

xau, want to see some pattern or strat then maybe short it.

thursday news will be hard, we got cpi and unemployment claims, cpi is more powerful but i think it will be damn ass choppy. likely won't trade it.
Note
there was a trade 15m ago, but i didn't enter it. not yet i feel pre london, also missed it on GJ long
Note
yep missed entry on GJ lol, 2.2 RR for now, Uk about to open too
Note
4th attempt to break resistance on 4hr chart
Note
im not in, think i want to see retracement still then long it
Note
xau, looking to short here, watching 15m chart
Note
watching 15m close, i want it under 2028.41
Note
im in firs,t but risky so careful
Note
xau short
Note
i think can be higher price but im in first. bad entry, sl 2029.55
Note
tp 15m swing close low or lower
Note
increase sl abig higher, i entered before candle close. like i said not best idea
Note
changed sl to 2030.12
Note
too bullish, im out, +520
Note
i would think, GJ is on that heavy resistance, and many taking profits, then hedging on xau
Note
shorting xau again now
Note
sl 2035.15

tp swing low on 15m
Note
out, damn -350
Note
2 loses in roll, going to take a break to reset, maybe trade tmw
Note
over all this month back to almost start. lets see tmw, need some time to refresh mindset.
Note
goign to long swing this, but if can' break prevous high i will let go
Note
im going to long swing this GJ, but if can';t break previous high im letting go
Note
out -100
Note
taking another stab to short xau again, here half order
Note
will se this candle close on 1h, looking ok,
Note
sl 2037.37, tp swing low, 2025.1, will watch charts, cause we abit bullish at the moment
Note
good sell, would have lost more then double on GJ, careful tonight we got core cpi news
Note
likely with the news, we going to drop hard, i might leave my trade on, i only have half order on xau, currently, about 140 bucks now.

news prediction is bad for markets. xau might just pump right back up later. and GJ drop.
Note
xau trade, about 1.2 RR now in profit
Note
if we don't get lower low soon, and news coming in 3.5 hrs get out
Note
i think people will buy gold again soon if news ain't so good. i think based on fundamentals we should get near at least 75% to tp. but the news is scarry, also people on GJ hedging on gold
Note
hopefully you guy do well in news trade, i won't post any of my trades, only end results.
Note
haha lucky got out, posted on comments section, took a nap, hit sl and hit tp exactly too. news is good for us market, so only looking for short term longs on gj and shorts on xau
Note
im a huge swing long on GJ and USDJPY
Note
i got a entry on gj 185.607

usdjp just got in
Note
both long
Note
so far won 1 190 bucks,and lost 1 140.

but in profit of 500 bucks both sides on USJ and GJ
Note
should have went heavier, so can consider to sell soon, went in half orders on each trade
Note
half order already 700 bucks, damn, well its a long swing, dont' do this very often
Note
the retracement wast abit too fast
Note
i want to see a big bullish candle close on gj 1hr or im out
Note
the high isn't even strong there. maybe looking for retracement then pump
Note
daily gj is still pretty bearish, so must pump break this then maybe can go up
Note
at the peak so far, 4.86RR
Note
damn what a liquidty grab, didn't take the profits just now. still in it too. -70 now
Note
back in profit, i want to see higher high close, if not im out,
Note
first round of liquidity grabs, im hoping its done
Note
from +4.86 RR to -1 RR of 220 bucks, lol
Note
1 win, 2 lose on news trade today
Note
so many chances to make some good profit, really my scaping skills abit off. from last year.
Note
looking like interesting reentry, but im still on my USDJPY, i'll just keep my UJ on, won't enter GJ long
Note
next time if want we can trade live, so faster to enter,
Note
warning this month, so far in losing month, - couple hundred, hopefully end of month can get more if safety zone, last months profits all cashed out already. so fresh account.
Note
"2 hours ago
Comment:
looking like interesting reentry, but im still on my USDJPY, i'll just keep my UJ on, won't enter GJ long"

was at the bottom, looks like thats doing better then my own trade on UJ, currently hovering around entry
Note
im going on a small drawn down about 650 bucks, i think times like this, just stay calm, trade same amount, be more conservative, 1 win will cover loses. dec was up about 8k, bound to have some draw downs.
Note
boom, 3 wins 1 lose today. up over 2.4k.
news trade was easy today. prediction was not exactly but effected as same as the forecast.
Note
im out, i think if GJ will retrace back up now, then a harder down later, wont' short anything lower then 184.308 until retracements happens. best watch 15m candles, im way up today, going to take a break, hard 3 days prior, just on losing streak drawdown. back up again, about 1.5k up.
Note
oh yeah, 1 of my trades today was 9RR
Note
man alot of reentry, im happy with my wins, i could have gotten lol 20 RR on this trade. im going to take note of this for next time, got a really powerful strat for next time something like this happens.
just saw something that will just further enhance my other strat.
also from now, i might look more on trading after wednesday for more bigger trade ratios, then early week less amount unless big pump or dump on a monday.
early week will take less RR.

just enhanced my trade setup, lets see how it goes next week, up for this month again so far.
Note
entering a long on xau, on this 15m close, and short on this GJ 1hr close
Note
xau tp, is 2074.3, sl is 2051.50

GJ tp is 184.696, sl is 185.564
Note
GJ lost 400
Note
i might re-enter GJ on this 1hr close
Note
for a short, same tp, but sl 185.725
Note
xau 1.5RR now
Note
GJ hit our sl then went back down immediately, damn, lol, shoul have put a higher sl.
Note
2RR on xau, so we up 1RR if sell not, u guys decide, im going to hold. i might reshort this GJ
Note
15m GJ no lower low, im closing
Note
took the GJ, small win,
Note
im still on the xau trade, next high, i want to see higher high or im out
Note
we do have a shs on the 15m xau, but thats mix markets, we son london markets still higher high, so i''ll watch abit more.
Note
put my sl lower, really mondays, man, i nd to set my tp lower, for mondays
Note
ive set a alert on 2056.79 then i'll watch charts, we have shs pattern formed on 15m,
Note
think next candle no pump on xau, best get out. on 15m
Note
i still would long xau, but not now, maybe lower price
Note
im out xau- 0.5RR
Note
yeah xau, lower high, lower low.
Note
looks like price wants to retest 2048.05
Note
not trading it, i rather just short GJ, usa has a bank holiday too
Note
good close on xau, saved 0.5R
Note
yeah mondays, had chance to have some nice profit, ended up small loss today
Note
wow, GJ pumped, no trades for a while now. i don't want to long nor short GJ, maybe previous high on 1hr, might be a nice scalp down but not too down, will nd to be very manual to trade.

won't trade already today, not monday, goign to keep myself out, till tmw
