{quote} Hi Fx-B Looks to me like the market is in an aggregation stage between yesterday's New York open & today's Day Pivot point then RN500 just below. When they decide any imbalance has been satisfied and move out of this inflection area (and in which direction) is still to be determined. Will it happen during Kev's monkey-business period(in an hour or so) or later in the pre-Franky / London open leadup I will just wait & see. No big break moves as yet it seems. all the best, trade safe

{quote} Hi again H, You also mentioned Gold & Euro sorry, those charts are added below and you might notice the similarity of behaviours for info only (not for trade advice, that's up to you and each individusl trader) also, reflect on what the OP here Andy/Moodybot has posted earlier {quote} all the best XAUUSD EURUSD . {image} {image}
so to say, almost all ideas & indicators we use for trading Forex, can be used for Gold too.
Eurusds pair as example: if we can use our indicators for it, and if it works well ... it means, we can use the same indicators for gold pair too, and maybe also for crypto (?). but ... because of so many indicators & ideas are available on the net, we must compare them and choose the one good for us. some levels like support & resistance ,subply and demand, fibonacci or other good level/zones indicators can be used also for Gold, right ? knowing this makes me happy , so we do not need to look for other indicator for gold, as long as we are satisfy with it... Exit is good, but Entry is need to master too in this game (just realized it) ... will try to master both now
Have a great day and stay happy& healthy ...
don't worry! ,but be happy...

Hi H,
Thank you for reply.
One thing I might add is that indicators can indicate but they don't trade. We do.
I have posted this idea many times over the years that I recommend traders begin on a Trade Simulator first to watch the market activity as it happens
(without any money being traded)
The on satisfaction of some understanding of the tricks & traps the market can lay for traders you could move on to a Demo account.
After a period of time successfully trading Demo you might then think about a real money live account to test your skills & understandings.
It's a minefield out there.
Here's a link to a previous post that could start you off with Simulators (that operate also on the weekends when the currency market might be closed)

(and here's another I posted for a trader that had got himself into fiscal difficulty where I suggested he STOP trading for real money, immediately, and why)
Hi KM, Be very careful
All the best sir
Trade safe first, then trade well

Hi FxB,
I trade intraday, so usually trading what is happening in the moment.
Here's a Daily Chart below of what the big boys might be looking at. I leave the plays to them & just try and tag along for the ride at the time.
My trades are all closed over night, as I babysit each trade manually, and I don't trust the winds of change that could occur on the whims of global happenings
.All the best as always
Trade safe, trade well
