Gold prices inched up 0.2% during the London session while investors are waiting for Nonfarm Payrolls data later. On the daily chart, Gold (XAUUSD) had a strong up day yesterday, which could be a signal to challenge the higher levels.

On H1 timeframe, I am looking for a pullback to the demand zone formed yesterday as a test, as highlighted in yellow circle. A reversal from this demand zone could form a long entry for a swing trade to the upside. The strategy is based on identifying the supply and demand zone for swing trading as shown below:

Below are the key parameters for Gold potential long setup for trading session on 8 May 2020, with a potential reward to risk ratio of 3.6.

Entry: long limit order at 1700

Stop loss: 1691

Take profit: 1733
