any price drop considered as a correction and a BUY opportunityFundamental View
Gold is still under buying pressure but it is at an important level
In the past week, gold was fixed above 2000 dollars. This consolidation was done right above the HKEX:2000 and TSE:2002 area. Important and psychological area.
The momentum is still bullish and can rise again to its historical high. We mean the area of 2060. But this price jump definitely needs a catalyst as a driver.
The instability of the economy, the uncertainty in the decisions of the Federal Reserve to interest rate increasing cycles, the purchase of gold by central banks, the crisis of banks under the pressure of recession and inflation, as well as the decrease in bond yields make gold more attractive for buying than ever before.
If in the coming week, the employment data is higher than expected or if the inflation increases a lot, they can make gold fall sharply and return it to the previous level.
But any disappointing data or even close to expectations will stabilize gold in the current areas and even towards higher levels.
Technical View
Technically, gold is slightly overbought at current levels. But what is seen in the candlesticks (downward shadows) shows the pressure on buyers in this area.
If there is no better than expected data for the US economy (employers and CPI), any drop in the price of gold to a lower level can be considered as a correction and another opportunity for buying gold again.
6 ways to stop loss in gold
Take profit and stop loss are one of the most important links in the entire trading system. After studying this article, you will be able to thoroughly understand the stop loss method.
You can bookmark it before reading it. If you feel that you have gained something, you can like it, thank you.
1. 6 stop loss methods
Stop loss means that when our order loss reaches a predetermined value, we need to close the position in time to avoid greater losses.
In a complete trading system, stop loss Stop loss is divided into static stop loss and dynamic stop loss.
Static stop loss means that after the order enters the market, the stop loss is set at a fixed stop loss space, or the stop loss amount remains unchanged. Once the market trend is unfavorable, the stop loss will be closed when the set position is reached. For example, after an order enters the market, set a stop loss of 100 points, and close the position when 100 points arrive.
Dynamic stop loss means that the standard of stop loss in the trading system is dynamic. When we hold a position, the market is constantly fluctuating, and there is no fixed point for when to stop the loss. We must observe the dynamic market changes until there is a trend that meets the stop loss standard, and then stop the order. For example, when holding long orders, the stop loss standard is that the market forms a short reverse break position structure, and we will stop the loss manually at this time.
Method 1: Fixed stop loss space, or fixed stop loss amount.
This is a relatively simple static stop loss method.
After the order enters the market, set a fixed stop loss space, for example, after an intraday trading order enters the market, set a fixed 30-point stop loss. Or set a fixed amount stop loss, for example, if the order loss reaches 1% of the principal, the stop loss will be stopped.
There are also traders in the stock market who stop loss at a fixed percentage of market retracement, for example, stop loss if the stock falls by 5%.
In this way of stop loss, the space for stop loss should be determined according to the specific volatility of different varieties.is absolutely necessary, and a trading strategy without stop loss will eventually end in loss.
Method 2: Stop loss at high and low points.
High and low point stop loss is the most common stop loss technical standard, and it is also a static stop loss method.
The market always operates in the form of waves, so there will be continuous rising or falling callback highs and lows. These highs and lows are also called inflection points. In actual combat, the starting point of the wave or the inflection point of the callback is used as the stop loss point.
After the bottom of the market breaks, open a position. There are two ways to use stop loss at high and low points. One is to place it at the inflection point, and the other is to place it at the starting point of the wave.
The inflection point stop loss, the stop loss space is small, the profit and loss ratio is good, but the fault tolerance rate is low, and it is more aggressive.
Stop loss at the starting point of the market, the space for stop loss is large, and the profit-loss ratio is worse, but the fault tolerance rate is high and more conservative.
This stop loss method is also relatively flexible, as the volatility changes, the stop loss space will also be adjusted.
Method 3: Combine technical stop loss.
Stop loss combined with technical positions refers to the combination of key positions of technical indicators in actual combat, and stop loss when the market breaks through these technical positions. For example, important support and pressure levels, or technical moving average levels, etc.
Method 4: Stop loss in trend reversal pattern.
This is a dynamic stop loss method. After the order enters the market, the market goes out of a reverse structure or form. At this time, it can be understood that the trend has reversed and the order is stopped.
In actual combat, you can combine your most commonly used criteria for confirming reversals. You can use the crossing of moving averages, or the breakout of trend lines and channel lines, etc., as long as the standards are consistent.
Method 5: Stop losses in batches.
In an order, set multiple stop loss standards, and stop losses in batches in proportion to different stop loss points.
This is a compromise stop loss method. Set different stop loss points through different stop loss standards to disperse the risk of stop loss.
In actual combat, it is often encountered that after the order stop loss, the market reverses and goes out of the original trend. At this time, because the order has stopped loss, it is very disadvantageous.
The operation of batch stop loss can keep a part of the position when encountering this situation, and can continue to make profits after the market goes out of the direction again.
Method 6: Moving stop loss.
Trailing stop loss means that after the order enters the market, the market develops in a favorable direction. After leaving the entry point and gradually generating profits, the stop loss is adjusted from the original stop loss point to a more favorable direction. The market gradually develops and the stop loss Also adjust gradually.
Moving stop loss is a bit like the left and right feet when climbing stairs. When your right foot goes up the steps, your left foot will follow. Every time the profit increases to a certain extent, the stop loss will follow.
The first purpose of trailing stop loss is to preserve capital, so most of the time the first step of trailing stop loss is to move the stop loss to the cost price.
In this way, even if the worst result is encountered, the order will be out of the market without loss. After setting the trailing stop loss, the order will no longer lose money, and even the profit has been locked. At this time, the psychological pressure of holding positions is very small, which is conducive to the execution of transactions.
These 6 stop loss methods, you can choose the appropriate method according to your own trading strategy

3/31 Gold Trading Strategy
Gold broke through the 1975 resistance level, which changed from resistance to support. The current resistance level is around 1986, and the shape is bullish. The transaction is mainly to step back on the support and do more.
The supports are: 1980, 1977, 1974, 1969
Resistance 1986, 1994, 1999
When the resistance is touched, if you like the game, you can carry out short transactions, but the TP for short selling must not be set too low, preferably $1- $2 higher than the support level.
After the shock structure is over, where will the gold price go?In recent trading days, the volatility of gold has been relatively small, and there have been no major ups and downs. At present, it can be treated as range fluctuations. The rebound is limited and basically the rebound has stopped until a certain point. The same is true yesterday. The rebound to the vicinity of 1975 is still falling downwards, while the short-term support is near the 1950 position.Judging from the recent market trend, a large wave of trend processes must be confirmed twice before a large upward or downward trend can be achieved, so the short-term structure is still to build a shock range.
The current volatility range of gold has gradually narrowed to within the range of 1950-1975!Without the stimulus of news events, the probability of gold breaking the level is very small, and it will continue to go back and forth within the range.At present, the previous low level of the price of gold has become an effective support. It is not certain whether it can support the rise again, but it is certain that there is no room for the price of gold to fall again, and the potential energy is even more weak. The downward extension of strong support is located in the 1935-1933 area.At present, the 4-hour chart has entered the contraction and shock of the triangular range, and it has been maintained in the range for a short period of time. It has broken through and stood firm at 1975, so the bulls can continue to see the high of 1980-1986.For the time being, the top pays attention to the pressure of 1970-1975, and the bottom pays attention to the support of 1952-1955.
Short-term trading reference:
1.Sell gold near the 1974 position, stop loss level 1979, take profit level 1960-1955
2.Buy gold near the 1954 position, the stop loss level is 1949, and the take profit level is near 1968

3/30 Gold Trading Strategy
Gold oscillated in the range from 1950 to 1975, there was very strong resistance around 1969-1971, and the support was around 1963-1959, so trading during the turbulence period can be carried out around these positions.
If the upward attack around 1969 is under pressure and cannot be broken, then go short, around TP1963
If the 1959 support is not broken, go long, around TP1967
Break through 1959-1971, go long, around TP1975
Under pressure 1975 upside attack can not be broken short, TP1969-1970 near
Backtest 1969-1966, if the support is valid, go long, around TP1983-1986
Break below 1959-1955 support, short, around TP1947-1943
XAUUSD: Continue to go long with a target of 21K
After failing to break through the 2000 level, gold fell below 1960. The overall trend seems to have weakened. However, what I want to say is that you still do not understand the intentions of the main players. Two failed attempts are actually a sign of accumulation of strength. When the market believes that the trend will continue to decline, the real rebound will begin. Moreover, at that time, there will be no opportunities to enter the market, and the upward momentum will be significant, which may directly break through 2000 and reach 21K.
Therefore, personally, I will buy a large amount of gold at around 1950-1960, or even lower, waiting for the main players to enter the market one after another. The more people are bearish on the market, the more favorable it is for us to go long. So now is the best time to lay out the positions and witness the breakthrough of the market.

Gold Monday Trading Strategy
Gold fell after touching above 2,000 again intraday on Friday. As of the close, it was reported at 1978. During the transaction, I had already reminded my friend TP in the group. There are some small supports near 1977, but this support is not very strong. As long as the bearish power is strong enough, breaking this support is a high probability.
I used the 30m chart, and there are two areas circled in the chart. For the market on Monday, first look at the 1975-1983 range shock. If the bears are strong, 1975 will definitely fall below. The following is the strong support near 1969. If there is no news stimulus, we can go long when it falls to the 1969-1963 range. It should not be a big problem to catch a small rebound. I will give a specific strategy at that time.
The current situation is:
1988-1983 resistance level
1975-1971 weak support
1969-1963 Strong support
Shorting in batches without breaking through the resistance level, breaking through 1990 stop loss, taking profits in the weak support-strong support range
Go long without breaking the strong support, stop loss if it falls below 1960, take profit in the weak support-strong support range
The market will change at any time, and it is impossible to operate completely according to one's expectations. (If only it worked out as expected!) I also update the strategy in real time as the market changes. Welcome everyone to pay attention.

Million challenge:BUY XAUUSD @1960
From a daily chart perspective, the price of gold has formed a double-bottom support at 1935 and is currently oscillating widely within the range of 1960-2000 in the short term. However, it is my personal belief that the market will still form a breakthrough to the upside. I recommend buying long positions on dips between 1960-1935 at the opening of next week and waiting for the market to form a breakthrough to the upside. For friends who hold short positions, they can choose to reduce losses and exit in this range and take advantage of the trend by going long.
I have already started a million-dollar challenge, where I will operate an account and aim to earn a profit of 10 million within a month. A viewing account will be provided to allow everyone to experience how large capital positions can generate profits in the market. Let's witness it together!
The important support of gold is in 1961, go long
Risk aversion broke out again. Gold rose sharply in the U.S. market yesterday, breaking through the resistance level of 1961-1965. It was under pressure in 1983 and remained in a range today. There is weak support around 1975-1973, and the best support is in the range of 1957-1961. If it falls here, as long as there is no news that is not good for gold, there is a high probability that it will rise.
The specific strategy is:
1975-1967 Support valid:
Purchase time: 1975-1967
tp1:1979-1982
tp2:1984-1988
Stop loss below 1960
1980-1983 range resistance failed to break
Sales period: 1980-1983
Time: 1973-1967
Break through 1985 stop loss
Gold builds a double bottom, go long
The 30-minute level of gold is similar to a double-bottom pattern, and long-term trading can be carried out. First, look at the resistance in the 1945-1953 range. If it breaks through, you can focus on the 1961-1957 range.
Trading straregy:
buy:1937-1945
tp1:1948-1953
tp2:1957-1961

Gold is expected to drop to around 1870
Yesterday, gold continued to rise during trading hours. It fell from the 1905 level to around 1887, and a further drop of $10 would have completed the gap filling at the 1867 level. However, stimulated by the news of the collapse of Credit Suisse Bank, gold rebounded due to increased risk aversion. The subsequent release of PPI data was also positive for gold, with the underlying message being not to raise interest rates excessively.
At the same time, as I mentioned earlier, the bankruptcy of Silicon Valley Bank and First Republic Bank was more due to the Fed's interest rate hike that plundered global wealth. Now looking back, not only the economic wealth of the world but also the assets and various obscure funds of the rich and powerful were not spared. This is reflected in Swiss banks, which we all know have dealings with many wealthy businessmen, politicians, and cryptocurrencies, oil dollars, hedge funds, and so on. If Credit Suisse Bank collapses, it will cause a global financial storm, and at this time, the US dollar will rise. And in Europe and NATO, their stock indices and foreign exchange markets were collectively shorted, and these published data played a very crucial role.
Remember the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers in 2008 when gold rose more than $100 for two consecutive days? It then fluctuated for a week, and after risk aversion receded, gold returned to its price before the news broke.
Now gold has risen from around 1805 to 1937, an increase of $130. From this perspective, it is not very safe to chase gold at 1937.
We cannot be sure how high gold will rise before market sentiment stabilizes, but at this stage, it is not suitable to take big risks and chase after it. The higher it goes, the greater the probability of falling to around 1867, and the further away it is from 1867, the greater the profit potential of shorting.
After gold rose to around 1937 yesterday, Switzerland began to rescue the banks, reducing the spread of panic and suppressing the continuous rise in risk aversion. Therefore, gold subsequently fell back to around 1910 and rebounded, currently at around 1920.
If it cannot break through 1940 today, gold is highly likely to form a double top. After all, the resistance above 1940 is still very clear. Of course, if it can rise by around $50 today, reaching around 1970, combined with the initial claims data to be released today, the probability of returning directly to 1867 will be even greater. This is how the market works. It always surprises us with unexpected events.
Therefore, in today's trading, if there is enough margin and a willingness to take risks, one can try to short a small amount around 1930-1940. If it can reach around 1965, then we can go short with a heavy position.
Of course, such a transaction is premised on the absence of news similar to a bank bankruptcy. Currently, the global situation is tense, and after such an event, the Fed's interest rate hike next week will at least reduce or even stop. By then, the market will show retaliatory rise, which will be negative for safe-haven assets like gold. It could suddenly drop after being pumped up, with no technical factors, only a profit-taking and risk aversion easing is enough to make gold drop by $50 in one day. Moreover, the gap filling at around 1867 is still possible. It is important to remain cautious and avoid being too optimistic.

How to achieve quick profits through short-term trading?Many friends enjoy short-term trading, mostly due to the short holding time, quick results, and the thrill of the process. However, short-term trading is the most challenging among all trading methods and requires careful consideration.
Today, I will share my early experience of short-term trading with you. Specific methods and strategies will be provided in the later part of this article, which are closely related to practical applications and, I believe, will be helpful for you.
The article is quite lengthy. If you find it helpful, please give it a thumbs-up at the end of the article. Thank you.
Advantages and disadvantages of short-term trading
Short-term trading does not have a strict definition standard. When the market moves quickly, positions can be closed within a day, but if the market moves slowly, it may take two or three days to close the position, all of which belong to short-term trading.
On charts, I usually consider trades at the 5-minute, 15-minute, and even 1-hour level as short-term trades.
The advantages of short-term trading are:
(1) Short holding time and quick results. People are naturally curious about the unknown and want to know the results quickly. Short-term trading fits human nature, making it easier to control emotions.
(2) High trading frequency, providing a thrilling experience. Many traders are restless and want to trade multiple times a day, short-term trading meets this human need.
(3) The decay cycle of the short-term trading system is short, and the distribution of trading results is more evenly distributed, making it easier to execute. Sometimes, even with a losing streak of 5 times, the long-term trading strategy may take over a month to recover, while the short-term trading strategy may only take two or three days. Thus, short-term trading is less torturous to human psychology during a losing streak.
Disadvantages of short-term trading:
(1) High trading frequency requires more time and energy and is not suitable for part-time traders.
(2) Frequent trading generates high trading costs. Therefore, short-term traders need to pay attention to their commission fees. I have seen many futures traders who have had their accounts charged two or three times, or even ten times, the commission fees. How can they make a profit like this?
(3) Requires higher professionalism and attention to trading details. Short-term trading is more sensitive to changes in the market. Sometimes, when the market changes, you don't have much time to think and must act decisively. People with more procrastinating personalities are not suitable for short-term trading. Additionally, the margin of error for short-term trading is relatively low. Long-term trades do not require very precise entry points, and being off by 5 or 10 points does not have a significant impact on the overall trade. However, in short-term trading, being off by 5 or 10 points can be the difference between profit and loss.
Therefore, short-term trading is a delicate operation, and all trading details must be clear and easy to execute. Short-term traders also need to possess qualities such as attention to detail, boldness, calmness, and decisiveness.
So, how can you quickly profit from short-term trading? Next, I will share two strategies.
2.Plan One: Choosing Volatile Markets with Large Amplitude for Short-term Trading
As a short-term trader, we only need to capture a small segment of market volatility, and it doesn't have to be the overall trend, as long as the market volatility is fast and the amplitude is large.
The faster the market volatility and the larger the amplitude, the easier it is to make profits. For the same 100-point profit, it may take only one day to achieve it when the volatility is fast and the amplitude is large, while it may take several days to achieve it when the volatility is slow and the amplitude is small, resulting in a much lower trading efficiency and different challenges to our mentality.
Therefore, the amplitude of the product is the key to making profits in short-term trading. We need to selectively engage in short-term trading and not try to swallow all profits. There are two specific strategies to consider.
Strategy One: Directly select high amplitude products for short-term trading.
Different products have their own characteristics when operating in the market. Some products have fast volatility and large amplitude, while others have slow volatility and small amplitude. Before engaging in short-term trading, we must select the most suitable products.
For example, in the same breakout trading opportunity, products with high volatility and larger amplitude can achieve greater profits more quickly.
As traders, we all understand that the faster we can lock in profits, the more confident we feel. Therefore, selecting the right products makes short-term trading easier.
Moreover, if you choose a slow-moving product, your holding time will be longer, and your position may be occupied, which will reduce the utilization rate of your funds and affect the final profit. Short-term trading is about paying attention to details and maintaining a strong mindset, as even the smallest details can determine your success or failure. Therefore, do not be careless.

What is the golden stop-loss rule?
For trades such as stocks, futures, or forex, stop loss is a part of the trade, and it only works for investors if there is a stop loss in each transaction and it is adhered to. Today, I bring you a 3:1 gold stop loss rule, hoping to help with your investments.
Stop loss is a way to minimize losses in current market trades and is frequently mentioned. However, the essence of stop loss is not just setting a stop loss price. In particular, in markets such as forex and futures where long and short positions can be taken, too many stop losses will undoubtedly cause significant loss of capital. Market leaders use people's fear to cause repeated shocks, even unilateral rises or falls to trigger short-term traders' stop loss prices, and then quickly retract. The normal daily volatility of the stock market is also around 5%, so if your stop loss is set at 5%, won't it often be hit?
This requires attention to two issues: first, judging the trend of the market, whether it is a volatile market or a clear trend market; second, setting a reasonable stop loss position.
First of all, it's important to understand that the most notable characteristic of the trading market is volatility, and most of the time it's in a volatile trend, regardless of whether it's in a larger time frame or a shorter time frame. Therefore, the investment strategy for a volatile market should be the preferred strategy for short-term traders.
Secondly, identifying the range of volatility is crucial. Find the highest and lowest prices in recent price fluctuations. After a sharp rise or fall in the market, a corrective wave will form between these highest and lowest prices, sometimes lasting a long time. For example, commonly seen patterns such as triangle consolidation or box consolidation require a longer period of time before forming a new breakthrough. As for what prices to choose as the range, it depends on your trading period, whether it's daily, weekly, 60-minute, or even minute-by-minute. By using price analysis to determine the operational cycle, you will find a clear pattern of fluctuation range. The stop-loss price for such fluctuations should be set outside the highest or lowest points, and smaller stop-loss or trailing stop-loss should not be used.
When the price breaks through the highest point, it is necessary to observe its sustainability. In most cases, it will return to the range-bound area again. However, if the sustainability is strong, it continuously sets new highs, and trading volume continues to increase, a new trend can be determined, and the stop-loss can be changed to a trailing stop. Its price should be set at a price that falls more than one time period beyond the highest or lowest price, and there is no new high or low in three consecutive time periods. At this time, it can be judged that the trend has stopped and entered a range-bound market. For example, if the time period is a 5-minute candlestick chart, then the trailing stop should be set at a price formed by a relatively large 5-minute candlestick chart. But generally, it should not exceed two candlestick chart prices, because beyond this price, the profit left is often very small.
The 3:1 golden stop-loss rule in trading skills means that the profit of the take-profit point is three times the loss of the stop-loss point. For example, if you buy a stock and it falls by 7% or 8%, you should close your position in a timely manner. When your stock rises by 20% to 25%, you should consider selling some of it, and not be greedy and wait for it to rise further. Of course, the percentage values here can be changed according to the market situation, but the ratio should always be maintained at 3:1.
Some investors may have doubts, what if I set a stop loss at 8% and then the stock rises significantly, even by more than 50%, after I sell it? It seems like a big mistake to sell it, and many investors may no longer believe in the 3:1 rule. Actually, the reason why we set a stop loss at 8% is to prevent it from falling by 10%, 20%, 25%, 40% or even more. You can think of it as a small insurance premium to ensure that an 8% loss doesn't turn into a 60% loss. Isn't it easier to handle that way? For most investors, an 8% loss is manageable, but a 60% loss is a burden that many cannot afford.
In the market, human weaknesses will be reflected. When you hold a stock that falls, you will lose some capital, and you will fear that it will continue to fall, rather than hoping it will rebound to make up for previous losses. As a defensive measure, trading systems should still follow the 3:1 rule for stop losses. Finally, I wish everyone a happy investment journey.
