Gold may have completed a minor 3rd wave with the breaking of the recent wedge consolidation.

A long trade could be considered when the following has occurred

1. Price has retraced .50 - .618 of wave 3 ( this will be wave 4)

2. Retest of trendline ( now acting as support)

The trigger to enter is = Price has closed back above the displaced 7MA.

Stop Loss could be considered


1. Aggressive - beneath the 7MA

2. Conservative - beneath the prior swing low ( wave ii) or 2 ATR


Target is to overhead trendline resistance and the 1.618 extension of wave iii, which is around 1280.

The trade would be considered exited early , if price were to close beneath the 7DMA.
