[B]PRICE ACTION OF XAU/USD (GOLD)[/B]
Hi Gold Traders,
It’s Wibie_G here. I’m an independent trader XAU/USD (Gold). I start this humble thread to journal my technical commentaries on [B]Price Action[/B] ([B]PA[/B]) of the pair in [B]D1 Timeframe[/B]. The PA discussed in this thread mainly refers to Price Level, Price Direction, Price Reversal, and Price Target.
My analysis method will be simple and objective enough. I expect any traders ought to easily understand it. To visually explain my points, I’ll upload print screens of my charts too.
The validity and the success rate of my method has been continuously tested and improved in these past 3 years. I have strong confident in it. As this is a journal thread—not a trading-system one, I won’t specifically discuss about the method. It’ll be discussed in my commentaries on market conditions as they happen.
