As I mentioned in my previous post I only trade when the signal is confirmed.
Unfortunately, there are days even entire weeks when no clear signal appears.
Especially when gold is consolidating.
But there are also false signals. Rare, but they happen. And yes sometimes even I get caught. Let’s never forget: the market is a living organism. Anything can happen.
Today, November 3rd, 2025 we’re seeing exactly that: false signals.
Let’s break it down:
Everything looks right. Price doesn’t break the 200 EMA. A strong bullish candle appears. Volume is high. But… the move stalls.
This usually happens when the trend hasn’t fully exited consolidation. That’s why I have one clear rule:
I don’t trade during consolidation.
And when the market finally breaks out of that phase?
Yes I follow the trend. Not the opposite.
Always remember:
Never risk more than 1% of your deposit. If your deposit is $100, your max trade size should be $1.
Why? Because we’re all human. Emotions take over. But when you trade small your psychological calm is stronger. And that calm is everything.
Work only on yourself. If someone is blocking your success? It’s you.
I’ve had those days even today where I just observe. No trades. Sometimes I think: maybe now… But no. Absolutely not.
Because price hasn’t made its decision yet. And we can’t force it.
Wishing you clarity and structure.
Thanks for reading.
