Nice trading support around gold trading. The useful part is handling gold setups with more structure, with the numbers checked before scaling. The setup is easier to judge after 25 XAUUSD trades, especially if ROI sits around 4 to 6 percent. Gold volatility can make one bad trade expensive, so a 1 percent cap per trade feels sensible.

Fair option with control if the trader wants the XAUUSD focus gives it a clear use case. It works best as support, not a final decision maker. For gold, I would use 0.5 percent risk, a 1.5R target and DD under 3 percent before scaling. gold can move fast, so DD and position sizing matter a lot.
