    LIQUIDITY RUN CONTINUATION

    Liquidity Run Continuation is the continuation counterpart to the sweep reversal. When gold takes out a level and keeps going instead of rejecting, it joins that run rather than fading it.

    HOW IT APPROACHES GOLD

    Unlike fading liquidity sweeps, this model FOLLOWS the move after liquidity has been taken. Once stops are swept and the true direction is revealed, it enters with the post-sweep momentum. **How It Works:** 1. Identify key liquidity pools (clusters of stops) 2. Wait for the liquidity to be swept 3. Confirm direction with momentum after the sweep 4. Enter with the confirmed direction, not against it **Key Principles:** • Liquidity sweeps reveal where the real money is positioned • The move AFTER the sweep often shows true intent • Following confirmed momentum is different from chasing **Example Scenarios:** • Stops below a range low are swept, but instead of reversing, price accelerates lower — enter short with the momentum • Highs are taken out, and rather than fading, strong buying continues — enter long following institutional flow

    • Marks the same stop clusters the reversal model watches.
    • Requires acceptance beyond the level rather than rejection.
    • Joins the run, with the stop back inside the swept level.

    The method itself is documented in full in Gold liquidity sweep. It explains the wider trading idea, its risks and the conditions that can invalidate it.

    CONDITIONS IT IS DESIGNED FOR

    Clear liquidity sweep followed by strong directional momentum. Works when the sweep reveals institutional intent rather than a trap.

    • Trend days that clear session highs or lows and continue.
    • After a macro surprise that changes gold pricing.
    • When several levels fall in sequence.

    WHEN IT SHOULD STAND ASIDE

    Sweeps that reverse (use Liquidity Sweep Reversal instead). Choppy conditions without clear post-sweep direction.

    • Classic stop-hunt days that sweep and snap back.
    • Range weeks where every level rejects.
    • Thin liquidity, where acceptance is illusory.

    No model is right about gold all of the time. When available, it will act only while you leave it switched on, on an account you choose and within the limits you set.

    WHAT YOU CONTROL

    • Risk per trade, as a percentage of the account or a cash amount.
    • Daily loss limit — once hit, no new entries for the rest of the London trading day.
    • Maximum open positions on gold at any one time.
    • Sessions it may trade, and whether high-impact news blocks new entries.

    Every order still passes the same pre-trade checks as a trade you place by hand. Reducing or closing risk is never blocked.

    THE GOLD RECORD

    No closed gold trades recorded on this model yet.

    No closed gold trades have been recorded for this model in that period.

    Scope: XAUUSD only, closed trades only, grouped by London trading day, across Gold Hunts practice and real-money accounts. Cash outcomes are deliberately not published, because they depend on account size, lot size and leverage. Older rows do not always record whether the account was real or practice.

    Liquidity Run Continuation trades a method Gold Hunts has already documented in full. These 7 pieces cover the rules, the sessions, the failure modes, the risk arithmetic and worked examples on XAUUSD.

      The full XAUUSD liquidity sweep playbook: where gold stops cluster, what separates a sweep from a breakout, the entry checklist, invalidation, targets, two worked trades and how to journal it.

    • WHEN THE GOLD SWEEP ACTUALLY WORKS

      The XAUUSD hours that actually produce liquidity sweeps: the London-open sweep of the Asian range, the New York sweep of the London extreme, a full session-suitability table, day-of-week effects, DST handling, and the hours to avoid entirely.

    • WHEN THE GOLD SWEEP FAILS

      The specific ways the XAUUSD liquidity sweep loses: the driver you missed, the second sweep, rollover wicks, deep excursions, trending gold and correlated crosses — plus how to detect degradation early.

    • SIZING THE GOLD SWEEP

      Position sizing for the 100-ounce XAUUSD contract, ATR-based stop placement, correlation risk across XAU crosses, daily loss discipline and prop-firm constraints for the gold liquidity sweep.

    • THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE GOLD SWEEP

      The specific mental traps of the XAUUSD sweep: revenge trading after your own stop gets taken, seeing sweeps that are not there, doubling down on a second sweep, and freezing on the one that was valid. Rules and journal prompts for each.

    • JOURNALING THE GOLD SWEEP PROPERLY

      Exactly what to capture on every XAUUSD liquidity sweep trade: level type, excursion depth in dollars, reclaim time, driver checks, and the edge-decay metrics that tell you whether the setup is still working — with a Gold Hunts journal walkthrough.

      Three fully annotated XAUUSD liquidity sweep trades: a clean win, a valid loss, and a setup that should never have been taken — with level, entry, stop, target, lot size from a stated balance and risk percentage, R outcome, and a post-trade review for each.
