I can’t say I missed today’s or yesterday’s fake breakouts, but I did miss the same 1‑minute pattern. I’ve added it to my system, and from now on I won’t miss it again. I’m not waiting any longer for today, this was a clean fake breakout and it ...

Gold with No Drama

Update: Gold always gives new special cases every day, and today was no different. We got a clean fake breakout to both Asia highs, but it still didn’t meet my criteria. I’ll wait for the London close, maybe it wants to fail both highs first then ...

Update: 5030 now officially belongs to the buyers. Both Asia highs are supporting the new long zone. 5040 is still not confirmed for buyers, and if it gets confirmed the battle shifts inside 5050.

PMI days are always noisy and mixed, even when the numbers look straightforward

Then I guess we look for shorts instead

Gold with No Drama

Yeah I’m looking at the same range. We already got a clean reaction from 5015, but the double top is the only thing that’s bothering me. It could easily turn into a sellers’ day. Yesterday was the same story. Buyers held 5000 in Asia then failed, ...

Today’s Bias: Long • Long Zones I have two main long zones, both supported by a higher low from Asia. The second zone is the stronger one because it aligns with the open price. Asia Low remains the last anchor for buyers, sitting below the open and ...

Gold with No Drama

I build my bias and track the market on the 30‑minute timeframe. It gives me clean structure, reacts faster than the 1H, and provides more detailed information without getting too noisy. When price reaches the areas I planned for, I drop down to the ...

Gold with No Drama

Update: I should have stopped tracking after the Asia Close Low fake breakout. It was the main move of the day in NY, and everything after that was just noise. Done for today, no trades.

Gold with No Drama

Update: Bias shifted to long after 5000 failed, but buyers still haven’t fully taken control of the level. After London close, I’ll look for longs from the new buyers’ zone, or shorts from Asia High if we get a fake‑out there.

Gold with No Drama

Update: The fake breakout happened, but it didn’t meet my criteria. The move wasn’t healthy, and I can’t execute off a 30‑minute close after price already moved over 18K points from the ideal entry. I’ll wait for my short setups, or for the bias to ...

Gold with No Drama

Update: Added Asia Close Low after it got respected. It now acts as an anchor for buyers. If price breaks below it and holds, it will shift in favor of the sellers. For now, I’m watching for a possible fake breakout at that level to take a long ...

Gold with No Drama

Today’s Bias: Short • Buyers controlled 5000 early in Asia, but after Asia close and into pre‑NY the bias shifted. The battle moved back inside 5000, and the sellers’ drop from 5020 was rushed, basically a deep fake breakout into 5000. A NY sweep ...

Gold with No Drama

I’m traveling and won’t be on my main setup until tomorrow. I’ll keep an eye on the market from my phone, but unless something very clean shows up, I’m done for the day. Buyers pushed the battle inside 4950, so my chart adjusted. 4940 and Asia High ...

Gold with No Drama

Today’s Bias: Long • Buyers fully dominated 4900 from early Asia, creating two main long zones. The first zone is the strongest, supported by the Asia close low. • My only short plan is a fake breakout to Asia High, and it was respected. The other ...

Gold with No Drama

I don’t know if this was a special case or not (because of the deal happening between the US and Iran), but my SL should’ve been hit and I was simply lucky. I’m considering adding a new rule to my system: If the main move happens cleanly with my ...

Gold with No Drama

Update: Executed my long and the 9K TP got hit. (ATR is above normal at the moment, so everything is moving very fast.) Done for today.

Gold with No Drama

Update: I think I missed one factor: the Asia close high was based on an old broken swing low in Asia. This part is still new for me, but it’s the only difference between this Asia close H/L and the others. Normally, if the high isn’t above the open ...

Gold with No Drama

Today’s Bias: Long • It’s a long story, but every sellers’ continuation point failed, and buyers kicked them out from 4900 after the chart and bias shifted. For now, the battle is 4900 vs 4950. • There’s only one continuation long zone, not ...
