1. Alignment with Previous Factors
   

Strong NFP Data and Potential FOMC Hawkishness:

Given the strong NFP data, there's a likelihood of a hawkish stance from the FOMC, which could strengthen the USD and put downward pressure on gold prices. This aligns with the downward trend channel and potential for resistance around $2,400 to hold.
Technical Indicators:

The chart's technical levels, particularly the resistance around $2,400 and the support zones below, align well with the broader market sentiment of a potential bearish outlook if the USD strengthens further.
Market Sentiment:

If investors perceive the FOMC to be hawkish, the bearish sentiment could prevail, pushing gold prices towards the lower areas of liquidity.
