{quote} Gold is still bullish, Monday open is not invalidated so far. We need daily to close first, we are exactly at Monday open mean, i really do not want to see day closing below 5014.730, however is expected another bearish try with some good probability to happen at 5068.800 to the close of today. Each day is a new story, the open will matter as it did today. Personally my bullish sentiment get lower but also is not bearish. Monday will close narrow, that for me is range market coming, rarely it isn't, so will be valid sell or buy as long people...

i haven’t been trading gold very long. Has gold always been so crazy or is this something that happens once in a while ?

quick qn to the experienced:

how important are previous days - and so the asian, london ny session - highs and lows? I see people chart them out as if they are draws to liquidity, are they necessary? is it just another tool to see where a reaction could occur off, or is there more to it?

thanks in advance to anyone who replies

Could just be trying to close the gap
But let's see where this 4H candle closes.. for now my bias is still up but my target is still below 5100 (around 5080 -90) cause there are lots of seller above 5100.. gold will need a deeper pullback for that 5100 to be broken
4960 seems like a good and juicy support and some previous reaction went on there
If clean break that I am bearish till Fed, if not am a dip buyer
4hr close will be first step to clearer vision then next will be how Asian session reacts to it

It depend of them taking profits at specific zones or not...
Mitigate something that momentum didn't let them do it and so on...
If price is efficient is rare on gold, but if is not beeing caution with a tool called partials and Be don't hurt...

{quote} This is so insightful, I can't believe this, An eye opener I have been dabbing in that dark since. This just means I need a good directional assets, but this asset should be less used or traded Everytime -> a bit less reactive and volatile? Maybe Can't think of one now but I will definitely work based on this Btw how did you create yours with trade locker -> I haven't gotten the hang of their Studio used for creating bots yet! Heard it just uses plain English to create.. I have an trade account there and I wanna automate on there cause their...

Yeah, you need a more stable instrument if you want to trade bots and earn consistently. The only other issue with trading bots especially if they use ATR, RSI and/or MACD is that they tend to focus on the incoming data not real-time feel & experience of market movement. For example, market might have been bullish from like Sunday opening till Tuesday Asian session, then all of a sudden Trump tweets that he no longer wants Greenland then suddenly market drops, that can confuse bots & distort the stream of data. So initial the bot gets data signals for longs that suddenly data of shorts within seconds to minutes can lose you money as it needs to backtest the sudden bearish data against prior bullish data. Therefore it could shift and decide to go bearish, then market balances out and starts going bullish again, which means more money lost within a short period of hours. This is all based on last weeks events with Trump saying he won’t take Greenland by force & negotiations are on the way. In that sort of case, I would suggest setting a lot size that is half of what you would trade if you were the one opening the positions, that way it would take 2 lose to cover 1 big lose while you are sleeping.

Yeah, the TradeLocker studio is a bit tricky but once you understand it, it’s not that bad, well at least it’s better than that of CTrader

TradeLocker uses python for the coding like CTrader uses C# for the coding. I created my codes for my bots from scratch with the aid of the studio AI & ChatGPT to confirm the structure & validity of the codes. The only issue I have with TradeLocker bots is that the bot you create can only run on the computer that the code was written, I.e, it can’t be run on cloud like CTrader. So you have to have constant internet & the computer must be allows turned on, unlike CTrader that as long as I have saved the code for the bot to my account, I can’t turn the bot on & off anywhere & anytime.

As a day trader the open is my guide as the close, doesn't matter if we go bearish or bullish, as long what we trade have a long term edge.
If we open bearish we can have massive sell but i really expect to see at least price if tap 4965.895 go test 5015.630 in worst scenario test 4987.545 , but breaking below this not only is breaking Friday close as disrespecting Strong Ny.
It will be hard to believe price will follow thru 4965.895 in 4h without bulls react, but for this be more clear let's wait more 4h...
I respect closing inside gap, despite respect his mean, and for those who say that is filled, not to me and really don't care much on that, more concerned with friday close and yesterday close...

Yes same thing almost happened to me with Greenland too but since my bot don't scalp my SL had enough breathing room

Tho the initial drop took SLs of both my bot and my manual trades, but then it entered the second trade well

ATR, RSI MACD etc.. all lags or they are a bit behind which personally I think it's normal cause even when manually trading you have to be behind the price to really see what it's doing, one really don't have to catch exact tops or bottoms

Altho mine lags too obviously, it still filters most ranges except it's a very long range looking like a directional move and if it falls for that first range it won't fall for another except it's a much bigger range -> in trading language-> until previous highs for upside or previous low has clean break it won't blindly follow the randomness
Even the above isn't enough if am not very conservative, conservative trading really helped and to me it's long term so your concern is very valid, lesser risks is actually the right move when it comes to bots, edge does the rest.. many people dont know this

I will look into Trade locker more, concerning the cloud stuff, that just easy, I will create the code inside my VPS and vps is like a computer server in the clouds that is remote but always On and always connected !

ATR and ADR don't lag..
If you want use them use the correct setting...
People use a lot 14 why? What the reason for that?
Which TF have 14 candles? This is the catch. Market is fractal.
Forget SMT or SMC fractals because they are not even fractals of what they are trading from, they just give better RR, the true fractal for a candle is always the TF below is the reason i know how much a day can expand without a use of ADR or ATR, and this are diferent, one include gaps and other don't.

Everything the blond guy says is just hilarious.
Everyone's making fun of him.
You mean the guy who went to his friend Epstein to ask if he was selling him a whoxx and married her? hahahaaah
Hahaha, no one marries an axxl whoxx !!
It's like having a Ferrari sitting in the garage and not knowing how to ride it. Now he'll have to run his whole life to prove how good he is at it. Hahaha, how pitiful that guy is.
Having a small pito and marrying a Ferrari given to him by Epstein is something that makes the whole world laugh. hahahaahahha
So even if he puts tariffs on 3345678765434567898765434567898765434567898765434567898765 everyone will make a big fuss over him. The market won't change one iota. America is going to collapse, it's just a matter of time.
