GOLD (US$/OZ)TVC

Description

just taken this gold trade - lets see how this works

Trade closed: stop reached

review - basically i was trying to play head and shoulders patter,
but i did not wait for breakdown (too eager)
also the candle sticks had long wicks , meaning buyers were coming in.
also should have noticed , the price (after being down), was trying to reach for the moving averages again, so basically in hindsight, either i should have waited for pattern to break or taken a long trade based on candles and moving averages,

i did end up opening a hedging trade which is still open (as price started moving upwards) , hoping to minimize or eliminate the losses. will update when that trade finishes

@boycie5000, read my review, wasnt the best trade, was a bit rushed , it wasnt really a trade that should have been taken (at that point in time)
