Trading Plan: Exit when volatility is lower

Comparing the two moves in the Gold market its was wise to exit at the manual DP area (green) and not counting on a breakdown, as the range of the bars got smaller, so unlike yesterday where they remained large and made the breakthrough today the price bounced off the double bottom

Conclusion: Take into account the range of the bars and enter and exit above and below narrow range bars.

Trading Plan: How to make a re-entry

Holding positions according to the trading action from last week, have a look at the GOLD screenshot on friday and monday morning people are willing to sell, so it make no sense to exit too early a profitable short trade that behaves like last week.

On quick sell offs or rallies trails stop aggressive at the first target when getting stopped out look if "time" is left on the daytrading chart to see if you can catch the 2nd target and once we broke through the 2nd target place the stop above the bar that broke through.

If the last target is not reached the price areas of the 1st and 2nd target can be used as re-entry areas:
