This is my pre­mar­ket prep for today’s Euro­pean ses­sion for GOLD. This prep builds off of my week­ly trade plan I made here:

The pur­pose of a pre­mar­ket prep is to find setups with­in my week­ly trade plan bias

Com­pared against Week­ly Trad­ing Plan

• Price trad­ing with­in last month’s body
  • Price ducked above last month’s body and is cur­rent­ly trad­ing with­in last month’s sell­ing wick
• Price trad­ing above last week’s body and extend­ed the range mak­ing a HH
  • Price test­ing new W1 Supply
  • Price trad­ing with­in New W1 Supply

Sen­ti­ment

• Nar­ra­tive
  • D1 Phase 2 with yes­ter­day tra­vers­ing high­er 0.66xADR clos­ing near its high (coin­cid­ing with D1 UKC in R)
  • Price test­ed H4 QHi but has seen no reac­tion (yet)
    • Price slow­down at H4 QHi and IB is trad­ing down
  • New H4 demand formed with­in Value
  • Asia extend­ed higher
  • LN trad­ing about same range as NY
• LN open
  • 0.58xASR Above Val­ue, Out­side Range
  • Mod­er­ate to Large Imbalance
• Mar­ket Profile
  • Val­ues in UT
• Clar­i­ty (1–5, 5 being best)
  • 4
• Hypo 1
  • Long
  • Return to Val­ue, VAH rever­sal, pos­si­ble Failed Auction
• Hypo 2
  • Long
  • Late-Sus­tained Auction
• Hypo 3
  • Short
  • Late-Sus­tained Auc­tion, although no good prof­it tar­get to VAH so prob­a­bly not worth it
• Hypo 4
  • Short
  • Auc­tion Fade

Addi­tion­al Notes

• N.A.

Mind­ful Trad­ing (lack of sleep?)

• Feel­ing okay

Focus Points for trad­ing development

• Month­ly Goals
  • 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
  • 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
