Had this setup been traded the entry would have happened on Feb. 19 at approx. 559-2. Because of the large candles that have printed that last couple of sessions, stops can be moved up to just below the gold weekly chart support level, which is at 567-6. Note that there is a gold weekly chart resistance zone above. The bottom of it is at 583-4. Be aware that the market could find a ceiling in this zone.
