Structure & liquidity
How to read gold market structure
A practical way to separate true structure from internal noise without chasing every candle.
Start with the higher timeframe
Mark the latest clear swing high and low on four-hour or daily structure, then move to the execution frame. A five-minute pullback does not automatically reverse the broader flow.
Separate a break from a sweep
A meaningful break needs a close and context that support continuation. A quick spike and return inside the range is often a liquidity sweep, not a full trend change.
Define invalidation
Before entry, write the level that proves the thesis wrong. If it cannot be defined, the setup is incomplete and cannot be sized responsibly.
