**Market Observation**

Geopolitical fluctuations seem to have failed to prevent the collective rise of Asian stock markets, which is indeed surprising. However, the performance of precious metals has been somewhat disappointing—after opening high in the morning, they entered a state of oscillation and tug-of-war, with bulls and bears testing each other back and forth. The repeated short positions in the morning were quite frustrating; after decisively closing out, I didn't rush to chase longs. Currently, I am waiting for clearer entry signals.

**Trading Ideas**

The wave of gold price plunges before the holiday gave us many opportunities; I indeed increased my long positions at low levels. But in this market sentiment, my strategy at high levels is very clear—avoid chasing the rally directly. Everyone knows this is good news, and while a herd buying spree can have immediate effects, the gains from ultra-short-term trading are often just so-so.

I have always followed the left-side layout approach, using minimal risk and cost to capture greater potential. This logic has been effective in the past and will continue to be so in the future.

**Current Operation**

Consider shorting at the current price of 4425, with a target around 4350.
