AI risk summary

Gold trading notes example

Gold is treated as a high-volatility instrument in the FundedScope risk model. If USD news is close, reduce risk or wait for spreads to normalize. Prefer firms with clear commodity rules, stable XAUUSD spread rows and no hidden news-trading traps.

Journal reminders

  • You tend to perform worse when entering before high-impact USD news.
  • Gold trades need wider stop planning than EURUSD-style setups.
  • If the first XAUUSD trade loses, reduce size instead of immediately re-entering.
