Gold 2021 Week 27 Trading Plan

#Fintwit #Orderflow #daytrading #daytrade #forex #FX #tradeplan #tradingplan #tradingforex #tradinglifestyle #daytraderlife #Gold #XAUUSD 

This is my weekly outlook on GOLD. The levels that I will be looking at with a higher probabilistic chance the market will start reacting. During the session I then wait for the market to hit those levels and either confirm or reject my bias through price action confirmation and order flow. I hope that makes sense. If not, please get in touch with me. I love to talk to people that are on the same path as me. So don’t be shy and reach out.

Monthly – Neutral

  • June closed retracing all of May not within demand formed in April
  • Trading above MN VWAP in UT

Weekly – Bullish

  • Price took out W1 demand and proceeded to close higher with a long buying wick making a slight HH
  • No arrival at W1 QLo after having rejected W1 QHi

Daily – Bullish

  • D1 Three Inside Up giving D1-C-D 1769.224 with continuation higher taking out D1 Supply
  • No arrival at D1 QLo after D1 QHi Rejection

Sentiment summary – Bullish

  • MN is somewhat neutral although being at the bottom of the range (and at MN VWAP in UT possible TC) and nearby MN demand there could be some buying pressure
  • W1 took out demand but then proceeded to close higher indicating a possible shift in sentiment
  • D1 took out a previous demand and reacted by creating a new demand and taking out supply further indicating a possible shift in sentiment although no arrival at W1/D1 QLo. With price nearing D1 VWAP in DT there might be a reaction and pullback to newly formed D1 demand.

  • Weekly Goal
    • Weekly Focus Points
      • Min. 3 times working out at home + mandatory cardio
    • Trading rules
      • Focus on taking ONE trade a day. If I missed the first DTTZ then a trade needs to be taken on the 2nd DTTZ unless there is a high/medium initiative activity day.
      • Only price-action based exit rules (or if hit time stop comes earlier)
      • M15/M30 entries and exits at 1st DTTZ, M5 entries and exits at 2nd DTTZ
      • Buffer trades (profit target >1R) are allowed and encouraged
      • Use SL scaling in case the profit target for the setup doesn’t provide 2R for example for FA or VAA setups
      • No social media / messenger apps / phone calls allowed during the trading window
  • Risk Management
    • Without forcing a trade: aim to take 1 trade a day, if possible 2. 
    • Capital Preservation during drawdown allows for 1R profit-taking
    • 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
