Next support - 1787

#USDJPY: Waiting For a Breakout ⚠️USDJPY is testing a solid horizontal daily resistance. If the price breaks and closes above 134.5 - 135.5 area, it will push the market much higher. The next goal for buyers will be 137.6 level.

GOLD (#XAUUSD): Update & The Thing to Watch The market keeps coiling on a critical daily horizontal support. Analyzing a 4H time frame, I spotted a potential inverted head & shoulders pattern. The price has already completed the left shoulder and the head and currently, it is forming the right shoulder. 1842 - 1850 is its horizontal neckline. The trigger to buy Gold will be its bullish breakout (4h candle close above). A bullish continuation will be expected to 1866 / 1879 levels then. If the price sets a new low, the pattern will become invalid though.

[Here’s why you need proper risk management in trading] Imagine: There are two traders, John and Sally. They both start with a $1,000 account John is an aggressive trader and he risks $250 on each trade. Sally is a conservative trader and she risks $20 on each trade. Both adopt a trading strategy that wins 50% of the time with an average of 1:2 risk to reward. Over the next 8 trades, the outcomes are Lose Lose Lose Lose Win Win Win Win. Here’s the outcome for John: -$250 -$250 -$250 -$250 = BLOW UP Here’s the outcome for Sally: -$20 -$20 -$20 -$20 +$40 +$40 +$40 +$40 = +$80 Do you see the power of risk management? So here’s the deal: As a trader, you’ll encounter losses regularly. But with proper risk management, you can contain these losses till it feels like an “ant bite”.

Dollar Index (#DXY): Your Detailed Trading Plan We have spotted earlier a confirmed structure breakout on Dollar Index. The market is retesting that at the moment. To catch a bullish move from that with a confirmation, watch a double-bottom pattern on the 4H time frame. 104.05 - 104.09 is its neckline. Wait for its bullish breakout; we need a 4H candle close above that to confirm the violation. A bullish continuation will be expected then to 104.55. If the price sets a new lower low, the setup will become invalid.

EURNZD: Classic Bullish Setup EURNZD broke and closed above a neckline of a huge ascending triangle formation on a daily. Watch the underlined blue zone carefully. It is a contracting buy zone based on a trend line and a broken neckline. I will expect a bullish wave from that. Next resistance - 0.728

Gold (#XAUUSD): Your Trading Plan For Next Week ⚠️Gold reached a solid horizontal key level this week. The price formed a doji candle on that on Thursday and then a rejection candle was formed. We see the attempt of buyers to push. To catch a pullback, watch a falling parallel channel and a minor horizontal supply zone. I would suggest waiting for a bullish breakout of these 2. It will most likely trigger the initiation of a correctional movement. Let 4h candle close above the trend line and a yellow area to confirm the breakout. Goal will be 1866. I will monitor this trading setup and post an update later on.

[Consistent actions lead to consistent results]I remembered my first trading system.It was a Bollinger Band mean reversion strategy.You buy when the price is at the lower band and sell when it’s at the upper band.The first few trades I did were winners, then the losses came and I figured this trading strategy doesn’t work.So, I moved on.Next, I chanced upon harmonic patterns.I spent half a year learning how to draw these patterns (guess I’m a slower learner).At the start, I had some wins but slowly, the losses kicked in and eroded all my profits.Again, I told myself…“This trading strategy doesn’t work. Let’s try something else.”This brought me to the world of price action trading, support and resistance, candlestick patterns, etc.Again, the same pattern repeated itself.I had some winners, some losers, and I gave up the strategy.One day, I asked myself…“Why does this always happen?”“Why am I not getting any consistency in my trading?”“It’s always a few winners and then the losses pile up and take everything away.”Do you know what I realized?The problem was me.I was hopping from one trading strategy to the next.My actions were inconsistent. And because my actions were inconsistent, I got inconsistent results (duh).So, don’t make my mistakes.If you want consistent results from trading, you must have consistent actions.Stick to one trading strategy, master it—and then move on.
