XAUUSD 22 August 2024

217
Entry
Entry Price: $2,512.50 (near current price, taking advantage of recent support level)
Reasoning: The 1H chart shows a strong fractal support zone around $2,500–$2,510, and the 1D chart confirms this as a level of support as well. This confluence of support levels from both the 1H and 1D timeframes makes this a low-risk entry point, aligning with the major upward trend seen in the higher timeframe.

Stop Loss
Stop Loss: $2,489.00
Reasoning: Placed just below the recent low on the 1H chart and a key Fibonacci retracement level (38.2%). This allows for enough room for market fluctuations while protecting against a major reversal.

Target Price
Target: $2,550.00
Reasoning: These levels are close to the previous resistance levels and Fibonacci extension levels, which are high-liquidity areas where retracement is expected.

Reward-to-Risk Ratio
Target: 1.60 (approx)

Trailing Stop (important)
Adjust Stop Loss to: $2,520.00 after the price reaches $2,530.00
Reasoning: Once the price reaches $2,530.00, you should protect your profits by moving the stop loss to a level above your entry price, ensuring a no-loss trade if the market reverses.


Major Trend Direction

The major trend in the 1D timeframe still appears to be bullish. The breakout above $2,500.00 confirms this trend continuation.
