- Attempted Setup
- Early entry from within IB
- Entry Technique
- Gold had formed a Bear Engulf similarly to DAX forming a Bull Engulf during B TPO. C TPO was looking to do the same so I went long early before waiting for an extension.

- Short Session SL placement (8500)
- TPO period for Entry
- C TPO
- Trade Duration
- 0h26m
- Long/Short
- Long
- Leading Narrative
- D1 Bull Engulf rejecting D1/W1 QLo
- Open sentiment
- Gold burst lower, inverse correlation with DAX
Actual Development
- C extended and closed above IB in a sustained auction, D immediately extended higher and hit 1.2R target.
- The auction was sustained and hit 2R and eventually higher
Good points
- Taking the trade using early entry off inverse correlation with Gold
Bad Points
- Not necessarily bad but yet again I could’ve had a bigger R‑multiple using OODA loops
