{quote} That is true but the dollar amount is incredible. It is a difference if it goes up 10% on 70$ or 20% down on 118$. I'm not sure how often such a move appear in History on such a huge instrument. I think the old guys cannot remember either. It puts everything in shadow last 20 years I think. It must be whole states behind that. I hope that is not starting the war even more between the west and BRICS. In 2011 we had also an escalation on silver but it took weeks to take it down that much. Now ONE DAY. That is a new level. I really wonder what...

You make good points. However, the way I see it is this way. When something goes up so much in a short amount of time, the correction is often brutal. You’d usually see weeks or months of consistent upward movements but all it takes is a day or two to drop more than 10%. Whatever goes up crazy will drop even harder, you just need to be ready to take advantage. That’s why I’ve been shorting Gold since late December hoping to catch a day like today or yesterday but unfortunately lost close to £20k doing so. I just timed it completely wrong thinking there was no way it could carry on pumping the way it was for weeks. The big players are also aware that us retail traders are mostly going long and they sensed an opportunity to destroy us.

I’m honestly not surprised with this correction at all. It is necessary and healthy in any case and my hope is that we close around 49xx today. And if we do, my strategy is to go long next week (of course depending on the geopolitical situation during the weekend)

I'm getting too much slippage on Xauusd. How do you manage it? Getting too much of it on exness.

I found a nice spot to scalp and traded it loads for good profit then it started breaking range and my setup kept getting triggered into bad trades and now I’m a stones throw away from my daily loss limit. That’s where impatience gets you. See you next week.

Yup. So many traders were in long positions for the past few weeks. It’s taking absolutely everything back and more with no remorse

Never ever thought we’d see a 6000+ pips movement in a day. Just regretting taking profits yesterday when I shorted from 5590. But can’t be too mad, it could have been much worse I guess
