This trade set up was last week. It did move 50% of it's measured move, triangles don't always have to reach their measured move.

At GMT + 2, 12:00, this is strange. US Gov. partial shut down and US dollar Index fell but Gold.USD is falling... hit by the resistance and fall - So difficult especially when co-related data are not working together... ><

So, you will wait for the break out of this triangle and the condition of debt ceiling is resolved. I see.

Yes. Even if I have a limit order to buy or sell, depending which way the triagle breaks out, my order could get filled much higher or lower than I want due to slippage. Or if already in a trade I could get stopped out at much lower or higher or lower than wanted. Price will breakout, but tends to pullback for an entry into the direction of the trend.
