Instead of calling Gold analysis, I would use the term of trading plan or trading journal to record my trades.
So please note: This is a personal journal only, but NOT a trading suggestion. Please control your own risk if you want to follow, we may have different risk preference and position management strategy.

No plan, No trading

Entry reason:
-------------------------------------------
There're 2 possible assumption of Gold price based on Elliot Wave Theory.

Assumption No.1 (Less likely now):
The big wave V is already completed at 1738. Now it's starting A-B-C correction wave.
The previous drop to 1670 is the correction wave a, and now correction wave b rebounce is expected, with the possible touchpoint at 1711 or 1720, then drop again in a 5-wave pattern to the final TP 1640 area.

Assumption No.2:
Wave V is not completed, and now it's consolidating in a triangle .1730 - 1670.
a-b-c-d-e pattern is highly possible based on the Gold current move.
And after it breaks the purlple trendline , it will rocket to a new high that aim to 1800 area.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gold start dropping from 1711 as the previous analysis and now seems losing its berish momentum and find a support at 1692 (the 76.4% fib).
If the price is matching assumption No.1, it should be more violate with a big dump fast and clear. However, the price is still moving like an a-b-c pattern, which makes me more prefer on the No.2 assumtion

There's not much news on Monday & Tuesday to give the power for either direction. I decide to close all my previous short position and do quick buy for scalping in the range 1692 - 1711.


The gold consolidating triangle becomes smaller and smaller. It will break in next 5-10 days for sure.


So here's my plan:
Intra-day trading:
Sell at 1711 - 1718, SL 1723, TP 1692
Confidence level: 60%


Buy at 1696: SL 1692 , TP 1711
Confidence level: 60%

Buy 1680: SL 1675, TP 1715
Confidence level: 70%


Buy Stop : 1730 , TP 1770, SL 172.
Confidence level: 60%

Sell stop: 1670, SL 1680 TP 1640.
Confidence level: 40%
