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
Larger Timeframe
- MN
- Price trading deeper into MN Supply and MN QHi having made a HH over last month
- Price has started reacting
- W1
- Price closed near its high last week and is currently trading higher within W1 Supply and W1 QHi
- Price nearing W1 Supply End 2075.537 but price started reacting, currently trading just below W1 Supply
Narrative
- D1
- D1 Bear Engulf formed within D1 QHi giving D1-C‑S 2000 near VAL
- Prev. Day Exceeded ADR by 1.72
- H4
- H4 QHi rejected and price arrived at H4-C‑D 1990.202 and H4 QLo closing within
- Premarket closed as a possible Base with a longer selling wick although retracing to a previous base supply level

Additional Notes
- N.A.
Mindful Trading (lack of sleep?)
- Feeling tired so will take extra caution
Focus Points for trading development
- Monthly Goals
- No momentum trades on Non-Farm Fridays
- No early exits, either hit SL or target
- Use SL scaling in case the profit target for the setup doesn’t provide 2R for example for FA or VAA setups
- Risk Management
- 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
