Why do I overtrade when scalping gold?

Because the feedback loop is fast enough to be habit-forming. A hard per-session trade cap, written before you start, is the only reliable control.

How do I stop revenge trading after a range break?

Make the break itself the session-ending event. If a 15-minute candle closes outside the range, the platform closes too.

Gold Scalping Psychology

Gold scalping psychology fails through click addiction, boredom fades on unconfirmed ranges, and the recovery reflex that increases size after a boundary break.

Controls that work: a written session plan with a trade cap, a no-trade rule when the range is unconfirmed within 30 minutes, and grading discipline separately from profit and loss.
