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 — Bearish

• Price formed a Bear Engulf (although to me it was more of a con­sol­i­da­tion) back in June reject­ing MN QHi with no fol­low-through. Instead price has been trad­ing with­in the sup­ply (MN-C‑S 1768.539) it had formed with last month clos­ing as a Drag­on­Fly Doji react­ing off MN-D‑C 1739.674 (coin­cid­ing with MN VWAP in UT TC). 
• No high over July has been made (yet)

Week­ly — Bullish

• W1 con­sol­i­da­tion and break down Bear Engulf fin­ish­er giv­ing W1-C‑S 1807.592 to a gap down and fill after react­ing off MN-C‑D 1739.674 and reject­ing W1 QLo. Price con­tin­ued high­er clos­ing deep­er into the supply. 

Dai­ly — Bullish

• Price reject­ed D1 QLo and has been trad­ing high­er arriv­ing at D1 QHi with no rejec­tion and price closed at D1-C‑S 1826.118

Sen­ti­ment sum­ma­ry — Bearish

• MN has failed to fol­low-through on the rejec­tion com­ing from MN QHi (as of yet) although price trad­ing in a large MN supply
• W1 showed a bounce and has not made a rever­sal in line with MN sen­ti­ment (yet) and there could be more upside if W1 sup­ply gets tak­en out as W1 QLo has been reject­ed with no arrival at QHi (yet).
• D1 reject­ed QLo and is now trad­ing with­in QHi at a sup­ply. If that sup­ply gets tak­en out there could be more upside.
