  9. 0:16very quickly so in this video i'm going
  10. 0:19to show you
  11. 0:20how i would scalp gold i do not trade
  12. 0:23gold because i've been
  13. 0:24burned on it before so it left a bad
  14. 0:26taste in my mouth
  15. 0:28but i've been back testing it and using
  16. 0:30the strategies that i've made videos on
  17. 0:32this
  18. 0:32channel i'm getting some pretty good
  19. 0:34results
  20. 0:36[Music]
  21. 0:38welcome back to the channel everybody my
  22. 0:40name is artie and this
  23. 0:41is the moving average the show where we
  24. 0:43discuss everything day trading to keep
  25. 0:44you
  26. 0:45profitable on a consistent basis so
  27. 0:47because gold has different contract
  28. 0:49sizes you can place a small trade on
  29. 0:51gold
  30. 0:52and make way more money than you would
  31. 0:54the same small trade on forex it's the
  32. 0:56same with indices or cryptocurrencies
  33. 0:58the issue with gold is that the price
  34. 1:00can spike up or down dramatically at a
  35. 1:03moment's notice
  36. 1:03so here is my warning do not trade gold
  37. 1:06with live money if you've never done it
  38. 1:08before
  39. 1:09start on demo the next thing that you
  40. 1:12need to do before you even touch this
  41. 1:14is watch all of my strategy videos i've
  42. 1:17got a whole playlist
  43. 1:18on the channel about all the strategies
  44. 1:20that i do i do not make a video on a
  45. 1:22strategy
  46. 1:22that i feel does not work you won't see
  47. 1:25me reviewing strategies
  48. 1:26that simply suck just to get the views
  49. 1:28the reason i say this is because you
  50. 1:30need to use a combination of strategies
  51. 1:33you need to know support and resistance
  52. 1:34levels you need to be able to trade off
  53. 1:37of moving averages going with the trend
  54. 1:39you need to be able to identify
  55. 1:41engulfing candles and
  56. 1:42when to trade off of them and what a
  57. 1:45three line strike looks like you're
  58. 1:46going to use
  59. 1:47all of these strategies all combined
  60. 1:49into one
  61. 1:50the best way that i can explain it is to
  62. 1:52watch my rsi divergence video
  63. 1:55because i cover all of the confluences
  64. 1:57that you need to have
  65. 1:58to have a successful gold trade i have a
  66. 2:01pen
  67. 2:01and paper also because i like to write
  68. 2:03down what i'm seeing
  69. 2:05it helps me execute my trades properly
  70. 2:07without getting lost in all the noise
  71. 2:09and letting my emotions take over my
  72. 2:11trade so without further ado
  73. 2:12let's get into the charts so like i said
  74. 2:15gold at a moment's notice can swing
  75. 2:17up and down very quickly hitting
  76. 2:19people's stop losses
  77. 2:20as you can see right here and right here
  78. 2:23so
  79. 2:24in order to trade gold properly in my
  80. 2:27opinion you need to go to a lower time
  81. 2:30frame
  82. 2:30one minute is far too noisy it creates a
  83. 2:33lot of false signals and i do not
  84. 2:35recommend
  85. 2:36it but the five minute is nice and quick
  86. 2:39and yet still gives you decent signals
  87. 2:41for a decent trade position
  88. 2:43these trades are going to be extremely
  89. 2:46short term
  90. 2:47i'm talking about a maximum of six
  91. 2:50five minute candles so less than an hour
  92. 2:52on any one of these gold trades
  93. 2:54the reason is gold is a fickle
  94. 2:57and i don't want you guys to get burned
  95. 2:59you are going to have extremely tight
  96. 3:01stop losses and you are going to get in
  97. 3:03and out of the market quickly
  98. 3:05so i've got gold usd up here on the five
  99. 3:07minute chart
  100. 3:08and we are going to focus on trades
  101. 3:11going long
  102. 3:12when it is above the 200 period smoothed
  103. 3:15moving average
  104. 3:16and short trades when it is below the
  105. 3:19200 period moving average
  106. 3:20again these are smooth moving averages
  107. 3:23so things that i need you to avoid
  108. 3:25completely you do not want to trade
  109. 3:28while moving averages are smashed
  110. 3:30together like this it is a no-no in any
  111. 3:33day trading scenario
  112. 3:34if you see them smashed and flat no
  113. 3:37touchy okay
  114. 3:38i want you to visually see these three
  115. 3:41moving averages
  116. 3:42fanned out at a nice slope these moving
  117. 3:45averages
  118. 3:46are smoothed they are the 21 the 50 and
  119. 3:49the 200.
  120. 3:49i also want you to put an rsi up just to
  121. 3:52see if the price
  122. 3:53is below or above the 50 level on the
  123. 3:55rsi
  124. 3:56not overbought and oversold we're also
  125. 3:58going to be looking for rsi divergences
  126. 4:00that's going to help us a lot when
  127. 4:02getting out of our positions so if you
  128. 4:04guys can catch a move as it crosses
  129. 4:06through the 200 period moving average
  130. 4:08then comes up to retest one of these
  131. 4:11subsequent moving averages
  132. 4:12you can actually get a nice decent move
  133. 4:16to the downside or the upside
  134. 4:17with a three line strike i've zoomed
  135. 4:20this in super close but you can see the
  136. 4:22price went down below the 200 period
  137. 4:24moving average
  138. 4:25we got three nice decent bullish candles
  139. 4:29and then a big fat engulfing bearish
  140. 4:32candle engulfing
  141. 4:33at least fifty percent of this move at
  142. 4:35this point
  143. 4:36this is where you would get into your
  144. 4:38short position and you would keep your
  145. 4:40stop loss
  146. 4:41right about here so for this specific
  147. 4:43trade your entry
  148. 4:44was 1778 and your stop loss is 1780.
  149. 4:50that is only a
  150. 4:51two dollar difference this is why it's
  151. 4:54important to keep your stop losses tight
  152. 4:56because gold can move quickly and really
  153. 4:59never ever come back to your entry price
  154. 5:01and you will blow your account
  155. 5:03nine times out of ten if you hold it
  156. 5:05thinking it's going to go the opposite
  157. 5:06direction so
  158. 5:07basically what we're looking at here
  159. 5:10usually i
  160. 5:10double the size of this engulfing candle
  161. 5:13for my stop loss but because the 200
  162. 5:15period moving average
  163. 5:17is right here i'm just gonna leave it at
  164. 5:19that maybe just a little bit above
  165. 5:21so when exiting a trade you are looking
  166. 5:24for an
  167. 5:25rsi divergence basically the price
  168. 5:28already has momentum you see these huge
  169. 5:31big fat red candles to the downside it
  170. 5:33has momentum to the downside so we are
  171. 5:36definitely going to go down to the
  172. 5:37oversold
  173. 5:38area of the rsi so we created this low
  174. 5:41right here and this one didn't exceed it
  175. 5:43but
  176. 5:43this one did once we see this lower low
  177. 5:46being formed we're automatically always
  178. 5:49looking
  179. 5:49at the rsi for higher lows
  180. 5:52signifying a divergence if you're happy
  181. 5:55with the first
  182. 5:56swing you got three dollars off of this
  183. 5:58gold trade
  184. 5:59and with a decent lot size like you
  185. 6:02could have made a lot of money off of
  186. 6:03this short move
  187. 6:04but if you're waiting for the rsi
  188. 6:06divergence i mean technically you still
  189. 6:08would have gotten out at the same point
  190. 6:09because
  191. 6:10at this close of this candle that's when
  192. 6:12you would have gotten out because we're
  193. 6:13creating
  194. 6:14higher lows right here and creating a
  195. 6:17lower low right here
  196. 6:18again you have to be extremely careful
  197. 6:20like you have to be
  198. 6:21very focused on lows and higher lows and
  199. 6:25lower lows
  200. 6:26structure rejection off of moving
  201. 6:28averages i would have gotten out of this
  202. 6:30trade right away when i started to see
  203. 6:31this consolidation
  204. 6:33because we rejected off of that 21
  205. 6:35moving average and instead of continuing
  206. 6:37down we started to go back up
  207. 6:38that's consolidation for me and i get
  208. 6:40out of a trade when i see consolidation
  209. 6:42i don't like to be in it because i don't
  210. 6:44know if it's going to continue down or
  211. 6:45go up that is your first three line
  212. 6:48strike and you're engulfing your entry
  213. 6:50and your exit now again we're only
  214. 6:52looking for short positions because
  215. 6:53we're below the moving averages right
  216. 6:55again we have one two and three candles
  217. 6:58right here with a big engulfing candle
  218. 7:00to the downside
  219. 7:01basically covering about 50 percent of
  220. 7:03that move so we can actually get in
  221. 7:04on another short position here this
  222. 7:06we're just going to double the size of
  223. 7:08that candle
  224. 7:09and we're going to wait for our next rsi
  225. 7:10divergence this one actually played out
  226. 7:13really really nicely because we created
  227. 7:15that
  228. 7:16low right here and on the rsi was about
  229. 7:18the 14 level
  230. 7:19showing a very very oversold market
  231. 7:22means that the momentum is very strong
  232. 7:24in that direction
  233. 7:25so we actually started coming up
  234. 7:27creating another lower low and another
  235. 7:29lower low so i actually would have
  236. 7:30gotten
  237. 7:31out on this first divergence here you
  238. 7:34can see the move is right here we had
  239. 7:35this low point and then
  240. 7:37a higher low even though the price went
  241. 7:40down and created a lower low that first
  242. 7:42divergence and this
  243. 7:44long wick right here that was my exit
  244. 7:46point at the close of
  245. 7:47that candle and with this one trade you
  246. 7:49went from 1776
  247. 7:51to 1769 a seven dollar move on gold
  248. 7:55which is not bad do you see what i'm
  249. 7:57getting at here you need to be
  250. 7:58trading with the trend you cannot hold
  251. 8:01back the momentum of gold with your bare
  252. 8:03hands it is physically impossible
  253. 8:06imagine a semi truck with a rope at the
  254. 8:08end and you see it driving by
  255. 8:10and it's like going slowly and you're
  256. 8:12like oh yeah i'm just going to grab this
  257. 8:14rope and hold the semi truck that's
  258. 8:15literally what you're doing when you
  259. 8:17trade against the trend with gold it is
  260. 8:19physically impossible for you to win
  261. 8:22just to keep this video quick
  262. 8:24all of the strategies that i'm showing
  263. 8:26you right now i've made detailed videos

  268. 8:33that means that you like it so hit the
  269. 8:34thumbs up button so we're trading with
  270. 8:36the trend we're trading three line
  271. 8:38strikes
  272. 8:38for sniper entries with extremely
  273. 8:41extremely
  274. 8:42tight stop losses we're looking for an
  275. 8:44rsi divergence to exit our trade
  276. 8:47and we never ever ever ever ever
  277. 8:51trade gold when the moving averages are
  278. 8:53touching each other
  279. 8:55or flat again you guys need to know
  280. 8:57market structure you need to know how to
  281. 8:58trade off of moving averages
  282. 9:00you need to know how to recognize these
  283. 9:02engulfing candles but
  284. 9:03this works consistently also keep in
  285. 9:06mind don't
  286. 9:07force the trade unless you actually see
  287. 9:09like three subsequent candles in one
  288. 9:11direction and then an engulfing
  289. 9:13do not get in on a trade like this was
  290. 9:16not a good
  291. 9:16trade to get in on even though it went
  292. 9:19up and you would have made money
  293. 9:21you're not sure about it and you should
  294. 9:23never ever ever do that

  296. 9:26paper only get into a trade when you
