Gold felt good today, winning five consecutive waves. First went long at 4485, but as the market moved quickly, I decisively closed the position and switched to a short. Short from 4486 all the way down to 4465, earning a 21-point profit. When trading gold, just looking at the correct direction is far from enough—reaction speed and judgment are the real skills. Hesitating for a second could mean losing the profit.

The last trade brought in another $4,000. Today’s total profit is $14,600. This perfect ending is the reward for sticking to the correct methodology. The trend is there, the opportunity is there, stay calm, and trading gold is that simple and straightforward.
