Don’t panic—your gold positions are locked! Here come targeted strategies for unwinding.

This week, gold staged an extreme V-shaped reversal. After testing the low at 3943 at the start of the week, it rallied steadily upward. With support from the non-farm data, it surged to a high of 4195, and the total weekly price range exceeded 250 points.

In this kind of high-volatility market with big ups and downs, many traders have fallen out of rhythm: shorts chased at the low were deeply trapped, and longs chased at the high also ran into pullbacks that created floating losses. The key to unwinding is not to stubbornly hold on and force it—trading in line with the current trend is the core.

Short positions trapped in the 3950-4000 range
At the moment, the current price is far off from your position cost. Short-term longs still have upward momentum, so it’s not advisable to harden your stance and wait to break even. You can wait for the price to pull back to the 4160-4170 support zone to reduce positions first, lowering risk. For the remaining positions, set a well-protected defensive stop-loss and look to exit gradually in the 4130-4100 range. Absolutely no adding to positions against the trend to average down—this will only make the loss hole bigger and bigger.

Long positions trapped above 4180
This type of holding represents floating losses caused by a short-term pullback. The big-picture trend is still bullish, so there’s no need to be overly anxious. You can add to positions in the 4130-4140 range to lower the average entry price. When the price rebounds to around 4180, take profit in batches, quickly recouping funds through swing trading.

After all, unwinding is only a remedial measure after risk management fails. The foundation of trading is always to strictly follow stop-loss discipline—make big profits with small losses, and take profit in time to lock it in—so you can stay stable and move forward in the market long term.
