Is there still a chance for short sellers to make a profit?

562
At present, gold continues to rebound to around 3230, and the intraday rebound has reached $100. Today, both short trades have touched SL, giving back most of the profits of the long positions in the morning. So are there still opportunities for shorts to make profits?

I think there are still considerable profit opportunities for shorts. Although gold has rebounded strongly to around 3230, it will soon face the short-term resistance area of ​​3240-3245, which happens to be the 38.2% split area when it retreats from 3435 to 3120, so this area has a certain suppression effect on gold in the short term! Then there is the suppression effect of the area around 3260; so I think there are still considerable profit opportunities for gold shorts. As gold rebounds, the short-term support below is raised to 3200-3190, followed by 3175-3165.

Trading strategy:

Consider trying to short gold in the 3235-3245 area, TP: 3200-3190
Trade active
After gold touched 3250, it began to fall as expected. It has now fallen back to 3234. Our short positions in gold have begun to make profits. Let's first see if gold can retreat to the 3210-3200 area. Are there any friends who short gold according to the trading plan like me?
Trade closed: target reached
Like-minded friends;

Although we lost money on both short positions yesterday because we chose manual SL, I clearly released the trading strategy overnight to consider shorting gold in the 3235-3245 area; overnight, I shorted gold near 3240 according to the trading plan. Although gold once continued to rebound to around 3252, it fell back after hitting the resistance area. At present, gold has fallen back to around 3207, perfectly hitting TP: 3210.
