Gold 2022 Week 1 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.

    • No momentum trades on Non-Farm Fridays
    • Total of 15 trades by the end of the month, can take 2 a day (not in the same product at the same time) 
    • No early exits, either hit SL or 2R target
    • Use SL scaling in case the profit target for the setup doesn’t provide 2R for example for FA or VAA setups
  • Process
    • Keep trade review comments short
  • Risk Management
    • 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
