INTRODUCTION - This is the 02/08/24, 18-min bar, ultra-detailed >> incomplete signal << in this CONTINUOUS & EVOLVING FORECAST (changes as often as I can update) for direction and shape of price action in FX_IDC XAUUSD gold ticker. This one IS SO HARD, you don't even know.
DETAILS - So I finished #4B and went back to post #3 to post most recent notes bc #3 was relevant in that it caught the move this week. So during reconciliation for all trend maps. A specific map DISAGREED STRONGLY with 2 routes that all other maps agreed with. This the route that was offered instead. My instincts say this is the better choice for Thursday and Friday. In chart above, the dark blue is the new route. The gray and light blue routes are preceded by question marks because I can't tell how they are supposed to connect.
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
