XAU/USD 23 October 2024 Intraday AnalysisH4 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Driven by the Fed's dovish stance and escalating geopolitical tensions, gold, as a safe-haven asset, has continued its upward surge.
As a result of this strong bullish momentum, CHoCH positioning has been brought significantly closer to current price action, reducing the need for a deep pullback to indicate the initiation of a bearish pullback phase.
Intraday Expectation: Price is not currently showing any signs of a pullback, so I will remain on standby.

M15 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Yesterday's intraday expectation was not met, as price failed to target the weak internal low and instead printed a bullish iBOS.
As previously mentioned, price remains extremely volatile due to ongoing geopolitical tensions and the Fed's softer stance.
After a bullish iBOS, we expect a pullback. The first indication, but not confirmation, of a bearish pullback phase initiation would be a bearish CHoCH, denoted by a blue dotted line.
Price is currently trading between an internal low and a fractal high.
Intraday Expectation: Price is expected to print a bearish CHoCH, indicating the initiation of a bearish pullback phase.
