The evening gold market faces the release of key data, with unemployment claims data following closely behind. Such periods are often highly volatile, presenting both risks and opportunities for traders.

The rebound phase is a good time to establish short positions in the trend. Conservative traders may consider shorting on rallies, aiming to take profits in the 4502-4512 range.

Friends holding short positions should be especially cautious. It is recommended to partially close positions first, moving the stop-loss to break-even levels, which can effectively avoid rapid reversals triggered by data. As for traders without open positions, it’s advisable to wait patiently and consider entry points after the market settles.

Data-driven moves are prone to hitting stop-losses, so prudent operation is paramount. There is still plenty of time tonight to capture the optimal trading window, so don’t rush into decisions.

Data market trends are really just stop-loss killers. If you're not careful, you'll get wiped out. That's exactly what happened to me last time.

Once the market data is out, you'll know immediately whether there's a chance. If not, stop-losses will be hit one after another—that's the reality.

Market data can really cause you to lose everything if you're not careful. Last time, I got stopped out... Still better to wait until things settle down before making any moves.

Data really tends to trigger stop-losses; I've lost quite a bit because of it. The 4502-4512 range sounds good, but we should wait for the market to stabilize before acting. --- Once the evening data is released, there are all kinds of reversals. I think protecting the principal is the most important, don't be greedy. --- Let's wait and see; a rebound followed by shorting sounds good, but it's easy to get caught. --- I agree with moving the stop-loss up; no one can guarantee anything in the face of data. Staying alive and exiting is the real victory. --- Gold tends to fluctuate in the evening. Instead of rushing to enter, it's better to wait until you see through it. --- My advice is not to force trades right before the data release. Isn't it better to wait until the risk passes?

It's another data night, easy to get caught off guard, but I've learned to be smarter.
