Model Structure
Here is how this price model looks:
It is based on 5 important conditions that should be strictly met.

2 - Higher Lows should respect a rising trend line, acting as a support.
It should be respected by at least 3 consequent bullish movements from that.
3 - After a formation of a high above a trend line, the price should start a correctional movement in a minor trend in a bullish flag pattern.
It can be a horizontal, parallel or expanding channel.
4 - Correcting, Gold should test a major rising trend line, being within a flag.
5 - A bullish movement should initiate after a trend line test and the price should break and close above a resistance line of a flag.
Buy Zone
