GOLD'S RETRACEMENT IDEA OFF OF BAT COMPLETION There was a final push at the end of Friday's large decline that kept killing my scalps for gold to go back up. Bad for the scalps but it did push it down enough to validate, in my calculation, the final leg of the bat formation. Now, I'm looking to retrace to the Fibo .382 mark with a target of 1352.
This is my first bat and retrace trade to post so I'm only presenting it as a test of my skills while learning here on TradingView. Input is welcome and desired. I'm trading this and entered long at Friday's close. I don't have a stop loss set as I don't know what asian markets will do yet at their open and will watch closely and manually close or add to the current long position (100 ounces).
Gold's bearish moves back to the bottom of channel. We didn't break the upper trendline and came down to break through the smaller TF lower trendline to find more buyers. Indexes continue to drop so we'll watch where gold finds ground to push from. Either 1370 or if it needs more buyers and better timing (the end of the week maybe with new economic press) we'll hit 1350 before higher targets.
GOLD STUCK SIDEWAYS WHILE WE WAIT FOR A DIRECTIONI waited for some type of direction tonight but nothing. We'll see how rates reports have an affect if any in the morning. Typhoon in China kept volume low.
I'm waiting to higher or lower entries in either direction. It needs to move down to gain strength to push higher rather than weak movements. Buyers need to feel they have a true opportunity and with the US indexes doing so well, it's hard for them this week to yet make the transition. US indexes are running out of earnings. Oil too by week's end will play a role so we'll see.
$NUGT short off resistanceWill be watching $NUGT tomorrow, approaching previous resistance & whole dollar resistance, so I will watch for it to spike into that $170 area then fail for the short. I'll be keeping my stop loosely above the 170's to give the trade some room to workout, but has upside to watch out for if it breaks above that resistance.
NUGTNUGT selling off Today, already at a 50% fib number. I suspect this could be the bottom. BUT, if we get a drop to the gap fill I'll be a buyer. $127.22 I believe is the fill. I'll put a limit in for $128. Good chance to make 30%. I suspect we have a few more days of sideways to lower trading, so it could fill. Need a few days to totally reset the RSI.
Short Before the Greater Bull Direction COT report still showing a large number of shorts that were only added to after Brexit. Hedges? Or smart orders looking for the bottom before overbought markets correct. There's a lot of market profits to be pulled and after US election conventions we could see a big change helping to fuel metal's new bull path.
XAUUSD : Potential Reversal Suspected to 1419Bulkowski's Inverted Scallop in sight on Daily.
Has Trendline Resistance at around 1325-1327
EMA20 on daily at 1325 may provide necessary bounce.
A: 1305.38
B: 1375.92
(B - A) x 61% = Height of Impulse
B + Height of Impulse = Target Price.
($1375.92 - $1305.38) X 61% = $42.82
1375.92 + 42.82 = 1418.74
Something Bigger or a Basic Bull FlagWatching this range in this maybe of a flag pattern. Let's see how it continues to play out. So far, the bear sentiment hasn't made any real impact here.
I'm holding longs from 1255, 1333, 1355, and 1366 looking so I can ride out the movements like today's pullback.
Don't get trapped too early by buying the movement, buy the bottoms here. Ranging is funky so I'm not scalping this round.
