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 is 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). To which price is currently trading below as well as just ducking below MN supply (coinciding with MN VWAP in UT)
