GOLD - Increased volatility brings great entry opportunity!
Updated
Upcoming US Economic data is bringing with it; added volatility and the potential for a great risk/reward trade.
With XAUUSD at 6+ Year highs and bullish momentum weakening, this last surge in volatility may be the last opportunity to get short on gold before it corrects downward for the medium term.

Note
RESULTS:Stopped at 1451.1. We had a sudden increase in price based off geopolitical factors. Escalating tensions in the middle east as Iran seized a UK oil tanker caused investors to rush to 'safe' assets like gold.
This is a great example of how technical analysis is not a bulletproof system for determining price action, and how geopolitics can influence 'panic' in asset prices. This is why I always recommend having tight stops in-case of a runaway geopolitical event.
