Near-term: Leans LOWER conviction 46% · 636 up vs 1600 down scenarios
GBP/USD leans lower near-term — high conviction. Of the 2,236 mapped scenarios that move GBP/USD, 636 push it up and 1,600 push it down, and weighting each by its probability, size and how soon it bites, the book skews lower. The lead driver pushing GBP/USD lower is DXY melt-up triggers an EM sudden stop and reserve drain (event odds not yet verified; ~1.2% estimated impact on GBP/USD if it occurs). Regime backdrop: The week the hike came back.
What flips the down-lean: Central-bank gold super-surge tops 1,300t/yr (event odds not yet verified).
Probabilistic, scenario-weighted read from the library + the current regime. A lean is a tilt in the odds, not a promise. Informational, not investment advice.

Near-term read — probability, range, evidence

7-day readClose call51.2% lowerForecast swing band: -1.2% to +0.4%
15-day readClose call50.6% higherForecast swing band: -1.6% to +0.7%
30-day readSlightly higher54.5% higherForecast swing band: -2.2% to +1.0%

GBP/USD is a close call over the next 7 days: 51.2% chance of a lower close means the evidence is only slightly tilted, not high-conviction.

The forecast swing band is -1.2% to +0.4% over 7 days. This is the model's comparable-history zone, not a price target. The downside band is wider, so the read is cautious even when the headline probability is close to balanced.

The history anchor uses 1,008 comparable 7-day windows; the base rate was 51.2% higher before today’s factors were applied. Status: live tracking started; not enough resolved calls yet.

Today’s tilt came mainly from price behavior, the scenario graph. Each forecast is saved and later scored, so this number will earn calibration over time instead of pretending certainty today.
