Week 38, September 2026
“Patience at Macro Boundaries & Clean Gold Re-accumulation”
The primary lesson this week was resisting mid-range chop on EUR/USD ahead of central bank events. Gold provided the cleanest structural execution of the month, respecting the 3,634 invalidation floor during the London/NY overlap.
“When price hovers in the equilibrium (50% dealing range) of a daily candle, stop clicking. Only execute at the premium supply or discount demand extremes.”

“Managing Drawdown Amid US CPI Disinflation Volatility”
Higher intraday volatility required reducing position sizing to accommodate wider structural stop invalidations. Keeping account risk at exactly 1.0% ensured that two consecutive morning losses on JPY crosses had zero psychological impact.
“Volatility is an argument for wider technical stops and smaller lot sizes, never for taking larger gambles.”
