Scenario analysis on the reference feed, not a trade history. Buy the shelf, take the quick target, done — if the 4,360-4,395 envelope breaks, this grid is dead and the weekly card takes over.
How do I follow these levels?
Place a limit order inside the 4,372-4,374 shelf with the stop at 4,368 and take profit at the published targets. The grid is only valid while gold trades inside 4,360-4,395 — outside that window, stand flat and wait for the next intraday card.
What lot size for scalping?
A 6-dollar stop on a 0.01 lot position risks about 6 USD, so use 0.01 lot per 1,000-2,000 USD of equity to stay near 0.5 percent risk per attempt. Scalps fail often by design — keep per-trade risk small enough that four stops in a row cost less than two percent of the account.
