Trade Idea: Long XAUUSD (BUY STOP)

51

Bias: Long
Order Type: Buy Stop
Entry: 3392.60 (above current swing high & clean momentum continuation)
Stop Loss: 3379.00 (below local support & M15 20/50 SMA)
Take Profit: 3430.00
Risk-Reward: ~2.7R



📈 Multi-Timeframe Breakdown:

H4:
• Structure remains bullish.
• Price is breaking out of a range with a clean reclaim of both SMAs.
• Momentum increasing, MACD histogram turning up, signaling trend continuation.

M15:
• Strong impulsive rally from ~3290s to ~3390.
• Higher highs and higher lows cleanly respected.
• Price consolidating at the highs—ideal for breakout continuation setups.

M3:
• Momentum is persistent with shallow pullbacks.
• Small flag forming near 3390 = ideal for a stop entry just above.
• RSI cooling off but still in bullish structure—no divergence yet.



🧠 Trade Logic:

This is a momentum continuation play after a clean intraday impulse. The market has shown strong upside commitment across all timeframes and is now pausing in a flag/pennant above the breakout zone. A buy stop avoids chasing and only gets triggered if the market confirms with new demand.



🛡️ Risk Management & Execution:
• Invalidation Window (SL-to-BE Zone):
Move SL to breakeven once price closes above 3401 on M3 with bullish structure.
→ This marks a clear micro higher high and exit from the current consolidation range.
• SL Placement Justification:
3379 is just below the M15 demand zone and SMA confluence—if price breaks below, momentum has failed.
• Entry Execution:
If the flag structure gets invalidated before entry (e.g., price dips sharply), cancel the buy stop.
