News & Gold Reaction
Select a headline to explore the surrounding price and NSI readings.
CyGuru calculates the NSI from closed OANDA:XAUUSD intervals recorded by Gold Terminal via TradingView. The price baseline uses at least eight prior ranges. The five volatility bands are based on the Threat score: Calm 0–24, Alert 25–44, Stress 45–69, Panic-level volatility 70–84 and Capitulation 85–100.
Composite weights are 40% Threat, 15% Reward, 15% inverse Cognitive, 20% Social and 10% inverse Recovery. The three price components are required. When Social or Recovery is missing, their weights are redistributed proportionally among the available components.
The headline score measures the concentration of topics in available reporting. Historical news values are reconstructed from the current archive using original publication times, so they can differ from the headlines available at the time. The chart describes market conditions and does not issue trading signals.
