XAUUSD BREAK AND RETEST Here we have a simple break and retest.
Gold broke above resistance at 1573.
Came back retested as support created a morning star candle on the 1 hour time frame.
Before the opening on London, this was a clean and easy setup.
The confluence of different time frames was also another indication to buy.
You could have secured at least 80 pips before market close.

Firing up the power of PlatinumThis is going to be a good opportunity to buy into Platinum cheaper. Wait for the breakout, pullback then execute your buy. Alternatively, it could have another correction as it approaches the trend line.
Be patient.
Always trade with a SL, employ appropriate risk and capital management.
God bless your trades.
XAUUSD SHORT This was a longtime trend line that I had marked up.
Once this trend line was broken with an evening star followed by a bearish engulfing candle you had a nice retest of the trend line.
This does not always happen this clearly cause people can mark up trend line on how they see fit.
If you were not sure after the bearish engulfing you could have waited for the retest and then secure 190 pips.
Was a simple break and retest, all depends on what type of trader you want to be and what fits your trading style.
US30 LongHighlighted we have US30 make is first low near support.
Then when market open we see a pullback being formed.
Check the 30 min time frame we have a morning star formed and take off.
I think its best to let the candle closed first and then enter.
You could have secured an overall of 2200 pips and only risking about 400 pips.
This is just going through market structure, candlestick formation, and then opening of New York session and the stock exchange.
XPTUSD (PLATINUM US DOLLAR) Platinum, which is used to curb emissions from diesel cars and in jewelry, rose more than 21% in 2019 – the biggest annual gain since 2009.
The long-only exchange-traded funds focused on the precious metal attracted $850 million in 2019. That was the biggest annual inflow on record, according to Bloomberg.
Price is making higher highs and higher lows. Sitting at the .382 fib and the 200 EMA.
Waiting to break through 1000.
Platinum (XPTUSD): $1,040 Target reached. Expecting a pull back.XPTUSD reached our 1,040 Target on our long since October 31st, 2019 as seen on the buy call below:
The 1M Bullish Megaphone since September 2018 is still holding (RSI = 57.612, MACD = 6.190, ADX = 38.381, Highs/Lows = 74.3178) and in fact the 1,040 top was its Higher High as seen on the chart. We are now expecting its technical pull back which based on the previous 3 occasions should be within -11% to -14%. As a result this puts the Target Zone within 925 - 895. Note: see how harmonic the RSI sequences are both on the bullish and bearish legs of the Megaphone alike.
This short term pull back doesn't mean that we have turned bearish on Platinum. Our portfolio still holds long term buy positions and we have illustrated our long term bullish sentiment on the idea below:

XPT SUPER SWING BUYOn the Weekly timeframe, this pair was on a descending trend, but the past year start making Higher Highs and Higher Lows, forming an ascending channel. the past days broke that descending trend line and the top of the ascending channel, made a retest of that lines and a resistance zone. Right now the price is bouncing on a strong resistance, but i think that got the strenght to broke that resistance, beacuse we got more confirmations to go long. To enter on a super swing trade we will wait to a close of the mentioned resistance zone, and wait for a formation of corrective structure on a lower timeframe to get the full confirmations that the price is going up.

PLATINUM VIEWPOINT (AS REQUESTED)HERE IS MY VIEWPOINT ON ON PLATINUM. PRICE IS CURRENTLY SAT IN A VERY WELL RESPECTED RESISTANCE ZONE ON DAILY/WEEKLY TIME FRAME SO I'D EXPECT SOME SORT OF PULLBACK FROM THIS ZONE TO THE PREVIOUS STRUCTURAL RESISTANCE WHICH WILL NOW BECOME SUPPORT AND THEN CONTINUE TANKING UPWARDS, ALTERNATIVELY IT WILL BREAK THROUGH THE CURRENT ZONE AND GO STRAIGHT UP TO TARGET (COULD GO LONG ON BREAK OF AREA IF THIS HAPPENS AND PUT SL BELOW HIGHLIGHTED ZONE) AS MY VIEWPOINT IS RESOURCES WILL GO UP IN VALUE (I.E. GOLD, OIL ETC.) THIS COULD ALSO BE A VERY LIKELY OPTION. I HAVE MARKED AN IDEAL ENTRY POINT WITH SL AND TP ZONE MARKED ON THE CHART, OPPORTUNITY IS A GREAT RR SETUP FOR BOTH OPTIONS SO HAVE TO KEEP A VERY CLOSE EYE ON THIS IN THE COMING WEEK AS PLATINUM WAITS FOR NOBODY.
Platinum: Time to Buy?I think no.
Price is currently consolidating around the $1017 level after breaking the $998 strong resistance.
$1017 is now a stronger resistance. Platinum broke it in June 2016 and tried to recover it at least four times with no success.
My view is a retracement to the EMA 50 level.

Platinum (XPTUSD): Quick Update. Getting closer to our Target.Platinum is approaching our medium term Target Zone of 1,020 - 1,040 as we posted on this idea in late October:
As the moment, the current 1D Channel Up (RSI = 66.576, MACD = 14.780, ADX = 30.519, Highs/Lows = 23.68000) has just broken above the Higher High trend line again in a move that strongly resembles the late July/ early August break out. That Channel Up was supported by the 1D MA50 (blue trend line) and on a similar RSI action as today's broke to the upside aggressively to form a market top near 1,000.
We assume that as long as the 1D MA50 supports the uptrend, XPTUSD will aggressively break into our Target Zone.

XPTUSD 1D ASCENDING TRIANGLE BREAKOUT LONG TRADEPlatinum Ascending Triangle Breakout Long Trade
Ascending Triangles are repeatable trading chart patterns.
Ascending chart patterns will have a directional bias depending on the previous incoming trend.
Each chart pattern will have defining trendlines of the support/resistance levels creating the pattern.
What ever time frame you are trading this chart pattern, wait for a candle close outside of the trendline in the direction of the breakout candle. (Our time frame preference is the Daily chart).
Add volume indicator - Volume is the amount of $ that went into a particular candle or in Forex the # of trades that took place.
Add ATR indicator - Volatility is the amount of price movement that occurred. Use the ATR to measure the price movement.
When you see descending Volume bars and descending ATR line (which indicates volatility) this shows
a dis-interest in traders to invest in this pair creating consolidation which creates the chart pattern.
Trade Management after there is a breakout candle close.
1 - Position size (compare volume bar to volume ma line).
a - Breakout candle must be 100% of average volume for a full position size.
b - If 75% of average volume then ½ position size. (To find 75% of Volume
look at the charts volume settings – divide smaller # into larger # = 75%+)
2 - Enter two trades.
3 - SL for both trades will be 1.5 x ATR.
4 - 1st trade TP will be 1 x ATR.
5 - No TP on 2nd trade – letting profit run and adjusting SL to follow price.
6 - When 1st TP hit – move 2nd trade SL to breakeven.
7 - Adjust the 2nd trade SL to follow price.
*8 – After Breakout candle – if price closes back into chart pattern close trade
*9 - When breakout candle is more than 1 ATR from breakout candle open.
a - Enter 1st trade at candle close with ½ position size.
b - Enter 2nd trade with a pending limit order that is 1 ATR of breakout candle open.
c – Price should pullback to that pending limit order for 2nd trade.
d – If Price returns back into chart pattern close trade before SL is hit.
