XAU --- Rules for trading the breakout

Education
FX_IDC:XAUUSD   Gold Spot / U.S. Dollar
My rules for trading this simple breakout pattern.

1. At least 5 points of contact within the pattern.

2. A breakout out of the pattern. This creates what I call the "Breakout Point" which is formed at the low wick of the candle.

3. Regardless of what price does after, we must see a breakout past the "Breakout Point." Regardless if we get a retest or not.

Risk to Reward Ratio of at least 1:1

Risk 2-3% capital.

Happy Trading!
