Not a full strategy, but it has a clear role. It helps with gold trading, while the weak spot is that gold can punish loose sizing. A clean journal needs both hit rate and average R.

The tool feels useful for gold trading if the trader keeps control. A 34 setup sample on M5 should show whether it really helps.

A decent setup here should survive 25 gold trades without looking messy. A few sessions of data make the result easier to trust. The first run should stay small enough to be boring.
February 20, 2026
For gold trading, this feels more useful as a filter than a full system. The journal should cover 41 setups and the trade context.
