SPL-4X - Range Calculation - Gold Strategy - Lecture 2 | ENTRY EXIT

Finance-specific “Gold — Range Calculation” Trading Framework

The presenter teaches a rule-based trading approach for Gold that uses:

• Range levels derived from the market opening
• A “momentum” concept to define entries, targets, and exits
• Candle-close confirmation relative to key horizontal levels (including 50% / mid-range-based levels)
• Trade management described as price “following its level” (“pending movement”)

Key Numbers & Levels Explicitly Mentioned

Opening / anchor level

• Opening level: 4085.700

Other plotted/reference levels

• 5341.3 (described as an upside move / range component)
• 4082 (trade entry reference; shown in chart)
• Mentions around 4080

Example performance/outcomes

• ~60 pips gained in one example
• 36 points upside from one support area

Risk / reward (as stated, though formats are inconsistent)

• “1:4 according to the risk rover”
• Later: risk reward ≈ 1:7:8
• Also: risk reward ≈ 1:3:1:4 (format unclear)

Timeframe handling

• Trade management is based on a 5-minute candle
• If a condition triggers (via candle close above/below a level), the trade is managed for 5 minutes, not longer intervals.

Date/time for historical example

• October 27 at 5:31
• Also states: “today is 27th October”

Step-by-Step Methodology

1) Find the opening price

Use the market opening as the anchor (example given: 4085.700).

2) Determine “momentum” from the previous day

• Use the previous day’s momentum
• Apply it from top to bottom
• The level is described as being installed on the 50% area of the prior range (presenter implies this is defined in a prior video: “watch the previous video”)

3) Draw horizontal entry/exit levels

• Draw horizontal lines starting from the opening
• At minimum, includes:
  • A downside level
  • A second/upper level used to condition additional entries

4) Confirm direction with candle behavior (entry filter)

After the opening:

• Do not enter immediately
• If price:
  • Touches the level then turns around → no entry
  • Does not touch the level and continues, then later you wait for confirmation

5) Use “candle close” confirmation

For downside setups:

• Wait for a candle to close below the opening (and/or below the specified level)
• Once confirmed, treat it as “pending movement” (expect price to follow through toward expected levels)

6) Manage “levels progression”

• If price moves less than the prior move from a higher level, you place the next momentum/level accordingly (effectively adjusting the effective level)
• The market is expected to gain “extra momentum” from subsequent levels until targets are reached

7) Entry locations

Entries are described as:

• Enter at/around the level when confirmation occurs (e.g., based on the candle close rule)
• Possibly re-enter if price returns to the same level (multiple entries at the “very same spot” are mentioned)

8) Targets and exits

• First target: typically the opening price
• Second target: either
  • half the move, or
  • often emphasized: take profit “straight till here” (toward a higher/lower target level depending on direction)

Exit logic also uses candle-close conditions:

• If a candle closes below a threshold after entry, exit at the next level

9) Stop-loss (SL) placement rules

• Downside entries: SL placed over the wick / “comfortably above”
• Upside trades: SL placed under the relevant candle
• Subtitles stress: place SL when the condition appears (especially on strong candles), rather than delaying

10) Timeboxing

If the trigger is based on a 5-minute candle close, the trade is intended to be managed only on that 5-minute timeframe.

Explicit Recommendations / Cautions

• Strong simplicity/assurance language from the presenter, including:
  • “You won’t find anything simpler than this anywhere.”
  • “I guarantee this thing.”
• Entry caution:
  • Do not enter if price touches the level and turns around before touching (described as a “no setup” scenario).
• Confirmation requirement:
  • Emphasizes waiting for candle close above/below the levels before taking trades.
• Risk note:
  • One described entry was “a bit risky” (but still taken in the example).
• Repeated insistence on:
  • using SL
  • exiting based on candle-close conditions
