Pre-event range and chop in play. We've broken below that bias level and rejected sharply, but that needs to be taken seriously. A few scalps long, but now I'm taking caution on long trades. Resistance 5055, support now way down 5010

DONE! To the pip

Evening thought:

Why are we so concerned with not what price is doing, but where price is going? "I missed the move", "I could have made so much", "If only I held that trade". I had long trades, 5.00 lots from 1450, cut them at 1495, imagine if I held them!

You'll notice the bias changes here, the direction changes, we don't commit to one direction or focus too much on where price may end up. All we're looking for is a decent trade a day, a plan of intra-day direction, a plan of entry, a plan of managing the position, and a plan to get out. Please try this, it's all about mindset and discipline, removing the fear and anticipation of where price is going. It goes up, trade it up, it goes down, trade it down. Goes to the moon, or the basement, who cares, we're here to make money where ever it goes.

It was a duff NFP, movement came but we're still within the range. It can only mean the market is waiting for something else to give it that volume it needs to breakout. Remember, the longer the accumulation, the bigger the move! We'll stick with the plan at the moment with the extreme level of support being 5010-20.

I'm away until Monday so I'll try to update when I can. No KOG Report this week either so please take some time to hit the boost button on the ideas posted.

As always, trade safe.

Evening thought.

Forex is not easy. It never has been, and it never will be. This game tests your patience, your discipline, and your mindset every single day. The only things that will carry you through are thick skin, experience across different market conditions, and a deep understanding of price action and market structure.

People often ask how we manage to stay on the right side of the market. How do we sell when others are buying, and buy when others are selling and still get it right?

The answer is simple… chart time.

After years of studying charts, watching price move, seeing trends form and break, and living through volatile sessions, you begin to understand the market’s behaviour. You stop reacting emotionally and start responding with structure and logic. It’s not about one instrument either, if you truly understand how to read a chart, you can trade anything, currencies, indices, commodities. The skill is transferable because the foundation is the same.

Experience and risk management are everything. They are what keep you in the game long enough to become consistently profitable. Survival though comes first. You cannot grow an account if you don’t protect it. The traders who last are not the lucky ones they are the disciplined ones.

I’ve been here a long time, not because this is easy or glamorous, but because from the very beginning I wanted to show traders the real side of the market, the side social media rarely talks about. This is not about luxury cars, designer watches, or trading from a beach on your phone. Look at the true veterans of this industry the real professionals. They focus on process, discipline, and longevity, not lifestyle marketing.

Yes, there is money to be made. But it comes with time, education, and for many of you, guidance. It comes from putting in the work when nobody is watching.

Stop jumping from group to group. Stop switching strategies every week. Stop chasing new signals hoping for a shortcut. There isn’t one.

Mastery comes from repetition and focus. Choose your approach, commit to it, and give it the time it deserves.
When you dedicate yourself to learning and truly understanding the charts, the results will follow.

On that note, we’ve introduced a new addition to the indicators to refine our edge even further, the crossover. We’ve adapted the volume indicator added to the red boxes to help identify potential turning points even earlier and with more precision. Another new feature of many in Camelot.

But remember, it’s not magic, no tool replaces experience. The more time you spend studying charts and understanding how your tools interact with price, the sharper your instincts become. Over time, you build an arsenal of knowledge, confidence, and structured decision making.

Stay patient. Stay disciplined. Put in the chart time.

That’s how you win this game.

We got that level with a tap and bounce, but short lived. Gold didn't want us to hold that trade so scalps only on this one. Still no break below
