1. Break of 4h high, strong rejection2. (1h no bottom wick)3. 30m Break and retest after dipping lower during LDN session, signaling bullish bias.4. 1h closure above intraday resistanceNo bottom wick formed, so I didn't enter.

Lookking at the daily price action, it is evident that sellers are in control of the market and that price is likely to push down.This is therefore the key thesis of this trade, in terms of price action to which determines my entry was the strong push down at 12:30 (+7GMT) and closing below my KL of 1724.86, suggests that this is going to be a strong push to contest with weekly low, as marked by dotted ray lineI hope you find this useful to understanding price action

Previous day closed at a relatively pronounced resistance, and a weak bullish one at that. There will likely be a strong pullback to see if bearish momentum could gold to trade lower, or if there'll be pool of buyers ready to rally it upwards.Overall I'm bullish on gold.

LDN open trade. session open and shortly after open is always the best time to enter position, at least to my data samples.

Didn't want to trade gold today because of the upcoming Friday economic news, but the setup was too good to not enter.

Marked the chart on HTF, visualised what price will do today and executed just as planned.Close early because aforementioned reason + entry was not the best to use as buffer for SL.

Experience played a big role on deciding to enter this trade. It was based heavily on the fact that structure held like a king. And I knew that the nature of gold is that if you miss the entry, you are likely to miss the whole move, so I had acted on it and it paid off.

Strong momentum on NYSE open + fakeout was the core narrative to this short.I had marked my hard target to be 3:1RRR but wasn't comfortable holding it so I closed at 1:1RRR.Note to self:momentum = hold the trade, trust your analysis.minor correction, resistance formed was meant to be pointed at 9:30am candle

Labor day, not the best day to trade, but I saw LL LH being formed since the open, plus a lot of confluences on the HTF which narrates a high probable chance that price will move lower today if it starts breaking the daily low.
