NY Session Gold: Volatility Trading
NY session gold trading strategies. The US session brings the highest volatility for XAUUSD with macro data and Fed policy driving prices.
After 18,000+ trades, this is the method that survived. I use it every US session.
US Macro Data
Before I enter any trade, I ask myself: would I show this setup to a mentor? If I hesitate, I do not take the trade. Hesitation is a signal — respect it. Accountability before execution.
NY Session Patterns
If you can only trade one session, make it the overlap between London and NY (12 PM to 4 PM GMT). That two-hour window sees the most gold movement. The overlap concentrates liquidity and volatility — creating the cleanest setups. I built my entire strategy around it.
Position Sizing for High Volatility
Position size should decrease as volatility increases. Most traders do the opposite. I use a simple formula: base lots = (account × 1%) / (stop pips × pip value). Adjust down when ATR is above 30.
I have been trading XAUUSD for over a decade. Everything in this guide comes from real trades at my desk in Singapore — not from textbooks. Here is what I have learned.
