INTRODUCTION - This is the 01/26/24 unitary (not binary), 15-min bar, 5-day partially-detailed, CONTINUOUS & EVOLVING FORECAST (changes as often as I can update) for direction and shape of price action in FX_IDC XAUUSD gold ticker. This is the signal I caught last night, adjusted for bar size, time frame, vol-limits, with consideration for PCE/CORE PCE release for 8:30 AM ET.
DETAILS - So I have just enough time to draft this route. This is not "ultra-detailed" but it should will serve us fine until I update in notes or re-post. This post will focus on Friday and Monday only. I should have an update Monday night. So the run RIGHT NOW should top round 7-8 AM. We should have one more minor check down. The expectation is to tag 2038 and retrace to 2025? or so BUT CLOSE AROUND 2040. We should get to 2065 before NY opens Monday.
WARNING - This material is for experienced and responsible traders only. If you have any question in your mind whether you are experienced or responsible, then THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. As precaution, the first rule of trading is DO NOT lose money. As reminder, the second rule of trading is do not forget the first rule. As prerequisite, please familiarize with this process first before applying to your strategy. As usual, this MUST be used with continuing notes posted throughout duration of this forecast to supplement but NOT REPLACE your trading discipline and risk management. If the limits of the update feature or update frequency do not satisfy your risk profile, then THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. As always, when price action disagrees with forecast meaningfully to you, IMMEDIATELY SCRAP THE FORECAST and trade defensively. If it is not obvious to you what meaningfully means in this context, then I repeat for a third and final time, THIS IS NOT FOR YOU.

d) in chart above, short and intermediate trends still pushing pretty strong
e) so this 2030-35 level should hold FOMC's retrace (which maybe bigger than the hilight)

10:06 AM ET 2038.XX so got first top, now we need to know if we get second top

10:45 AM so indeed something worse, but STILL UNDECIDED
a) so swing vol on 1-min bar is high AF right now (2-way)
b) that means bulls have about 2-hours to "make an impression"
c) and then bears' response to that second high,wherever it is ...
d) determines FOMC move up or down, I guess or both bc it's been SO ZIG ZAG....

a) no, I'm not sure that will be "retested to 2029" again...
b) bc we are OVERSOLD AF an 1-min bars
c) any way, so that allows us to some what foresee NFP....
d) again, counter-intuitive...
e) if high right before NFP, then it should be rugpull reaction
f) if low right before NFP then it should be spike reaction to "M top"
