XAUUSD Trading Plan: Selling Near the Ceiling Short SetupGOLD (US$/OZ)TVC:GOLDVaultX_TraderAs shown in Gold recently suffered a strong breakdown from its high, changing character (CHOCH) and leaving an open gap (Fair Value Gap / FVG) overhead. Gold is currently rallying back up to retest this overhead ceiling near $4,098–$4,103 The plan is to open a sell position in this supply zone, expecting the price to get rejected and slide back down toward the primary bottom floor at $4,030 and the $4,022 full target area. The Plan at a Glance Sell Zone (Entry): $4,098 – $4,103 What it means: This is the overhead ceiling / gap area. We want to open our sell position as close to this level as possible when price reaches it. Current Price: $4,086 What it means: Gold is currently pushing up toward our sell zone. We are waiting for it to reach $4,098 before taking the trade. Safety Exit (Stop Loss): $4,108 What it means: If price climbs above this line, the trade is no longer safe. We exit automatically to protect our money. First Profit Target: $4,050 What it means: This is an intermediate support gap where we will take partial profits and move our stop loss to entry to make the trade risk-free. Final Profit Target: $4,022 – $4,030 What it means: This is the main floor and 36liquidity target. We will close the trade and secure our full profit here. Why This Trade Makes Sense High Reward, Tiny Risk: Selling right inside the $4,098–$4,103 resistance gap allows us to place a tight stop loss above $4,108, giving an excellent risk-to-reward ratio. Structural Shift: Gold broke major structure on the 1-hour chart (CHOCH), indicating that sellers have taken macro control of the market. Clean Path Down: After retesting the $4,098 gap, there is very little support until $4,050 and $4,022 creating a clear pathway for price to drop. Simple Steps to Manage the Trade Step 1: Get In Wait for Gold to push into $4,098 and open a sell position, setting your safety exit (Stop Loss) at $4,108 Step 2: Remove the Risk When price drops to $4,050 close half of your position to secure profits, and move your stop loss down to your entry price $4,098 Step 3: Collect the Win Close the rest of your position when Gold reaches the final target zone between $4,030. and $4,022.
