{quote} Currently what I see is market made a liquidity sweep on both sides and 4200 acted as a good support level. market closed on 4253.9 according to Oanda xauusd. Currently I will wait and see, and enter at the right point. Exit also Edit: it feels like a pullback/correction in a broader uptrend rather than a trend reversal. people who’re saying 3500-3600 are doing foolish talk
try have a target per weekly,
the point is not catching the whole move,
the point is growing your account , save the money for next pullback.
if not pullback then wait, such ATH, the prediction 44xx is our goal but market is uncertainty, it can switch by unexpected news. So dont be stubborn. React to market, not hope in market.
just my advice.

First, I'd like to say hello to everyone. I'm new here and a beginner. I was inspired by gold as a great way to earn extra money for my household, but my plans fell through due to a beginner's mistake and greed. Now I'm looking for help and your opinions on what might happen and what scenarios to consider. I'd like to know what you think about whether gold will return to its peak in the next two weeks. If so, I'm waiting and not closing the transaction because it's a significant loss. So, I have no choice but to wait and see if gold will return to its peak in two weeks. My next question is what should I consider in the coming days and what to expect? If the price exceeds 4135, should I expect an even bigger correction? If the price doesn't break 4240, should I expect a decline?

I've been thinking if I should post about Friday, my Britishness is making me stop posting because it feels a bit show off but this would have helped me in the past and this is the reason why I'm here in the first place, posting.

I thought Friday might be a retrace day but I was not thinking it would be like it actually was and with as many pips as it was. It was over 560,000 volume tick day, so this is not - it did what I thought it would and you didn't nah, nah,nah.

I traded Asia because I find it easier to read, there is still that shimee / switcheroo from open but if it breaks, it pulls back to Asia range. Either sits on top and moves away with an engulfing candle or pulls back inside low/high range and moves back away. (15 minute) Very rarely does anything different; it moves fast too, by the end of trading, usually very close to the daily 61% extension.

I don't know if this is due to fewer trader numbers / more aligned in bias or less algo traders, but candles are always much cleaner, with fewer wicks.

So, I traded Asia, skipped Europe / NY - great, how does that help you?

I thought it was coming because it was going parabolic. Usually, when the slope is approaching straight up, it pulls back a bit. 4hr futures gapped down by a tiny small amount too, on the midnight open candle, but that is not a prediction, that's an observation of what has already happened..

I generally don't like predictions because you tend to form a bias unknowingly, you have a picture in your brain of what you think will happen, kind of like target fixation. You miss all the other signs, sitting there waiting for it to happen like you think it will. This is not or wasn't a prediction; it was more a warning.

Nearly all technical analysis levels etc, come from a fib or deviation. I was watching this. Start of move from 30th July, set to top of end of move (1st wave) early September. Usually, the maximum from that first move in extension is 361 - 400% and then there is either profit taking or retracement - it's only a warning, I don't trade off it.

The acceleration you see at the end of the move, fractal in nature, any timeframe, it starts to accelerate towards the end, fewer sellers, only buyers remain, buyers stop buying because it's so high, and then there is a market shift from uncontested sellers/closing orders and waterfall - This is what I mean by parabolic. Bollinger bands, although ugly, are good for spotting this acceleration. (deviation and standard deviation).

First chart is how I saw futures Midnight UK time investing futures chart, spot had gapped. Middle chart is 8 hour, my favourite long-term timeframe, aligns with sessions and the 3 nature of markets, 3 x 8hrs in a day. Also on that chart Friday finished with an Upside Gap three Method, which is a bullish continuation, so next week will be tricky. This is where I set that long-term fib. It has at the end of Friday touched a daily FVG and moved away (daily FVG it likes to do).

Last is futures close, that's going to be a difficult candle to turn around next week.

So my prediction next week, no prediction, just watch, do what I always do.

Is the point of control, similar to the point of control from volume profile, or only similar in name?

I do really like the look of these charts and I like to know why market moves the way it does, look for patterns, I do really appreciate the detail in that post.

I'm not going to describe the way I trade now because I have a few times but all my livelihood is based of probabilities and stats of the method I use. Although I want to include this and start looking deeper, I'm worried that over time, I'm going to lose focus. I know deep down I'm a bit bored, its why I'm looking at stuff like this, one of the reasons I'm posting more frequently on forex factory about spreads etc.

I miss the learning a little bit and I'm look for complexity.

I suppose at some stage you had a similar dilemma of switching over to this style, adding a subscription terminal to an already working, successful strategy etc?

POC in simple terms is the price where the most business was done. A Volume profile POC is more session based which can be daily or each session eg. Asia LS & NY. it compresses all activity into one horizontal histogram and that plots it as the “market’s fair price” across many candles, it also is used for identifying value zones, balance areas, or session magnets. Typically stable and doesnt change tick by tick once the session closes. it should be looked as more macro level. Whereas an orderflow has endless possibilies, POC can be within a 15 min candlestick a 500 /1000/3000 tick candlestick or a 1000 trade 3000 trade. it is derived from the Footprint Bid x Ask volume per price inside one bar. Each bar has its own micro POC, sometimes called HVN inside the bar itself.

A Professional trader watches both as The micro POCs on a volume profile show how current auctions are unfolding while a macro orderflow POC shows where the broader market finds value. you can tweak these to 15 mins, to even based on trades. I have another chart in the below example that show how the candles developed over 3000 trades. Whereas other charts too provide details.. it can be seen below .. however with TV the serious limitation is pure orderflow and its limitation of max 4 days .. good for beginners in orderflow and volume profile but not meant for serious traders. still their volume profile works amazing.

As for tick value is 0.01, A generally accepted Tick Value for gold is between 5 ticks to a max of 20 ticks. 1000 ticks and you will not be able to spot absorption or reversals and that is $1 and a $1 is 100 pips . Reduce it .. to atleast 20 ticks.
