BUY XAUUSDWIN +2.16R

Step by step: how the agents decided

1. 5 · Risk room: is the trade worth taking?

   Planned R:R is 1:2.16.

   • Reward-to-risk ≥ 1:2. Planned R:R is 1:2.16.
   • Daily loss limit. Today's P&L is -0.25%, inside the 2% limit.
   • Backtested edge on this market. Backtest over 6.8 days found only 0 qualifying setup(s) — not enough to prove an edge, so the office trades this market at half risk.

2. 6 · Graduate council: do the specialists agree?

   The graduate council voted 2–3 against, so the Risk Room halves the size.

   • Nova · Inside a London/New York killzone. It's 22:00 UTC, outside the London (07–10) and New York (12–15) killzones. Moves here are slower and fake-outs are more common.
   • Rex · Momentum not exhausted. 15M RSI is 76, already stretched up. Entering now means chasing exhausted momentum.
   • Ivy · Stop sized to volatility. The stop is 4.2× the 5M ATR. Too wide: it shrinks the position and the edge.
   • Kai · Entry in discount/premium. The entry sits in the discount half of yesterday's range, the right side for a long.
   • Zara · Daily candle agrees. Today's daily candle is bullish, trading with the tide.
