As fourier provides bold fonts, no doubt that a context expert will be
able to set it correctly for boldmath...
But note that there are no bold version of symbols and extension fonts...

At my home it works with
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Letters-Bold] [futmb8t]
[encoding=ec]

They should be (so it is at my home!)

I make private (in the working directory) modified version of type-syn,
type-spe, type-enc, and math-fou
type-spe : added "boldmath"
\starttypescript [math,boldmath] [fourier] [special]
\usemathcollection[fou]
\stoptypescript
type-syn : added
\starttypescript [boldmath] [fourier] [name]
\definefontsynonym [MathRoman] [Fourier-Math-Letters-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [MathGamma] [Fourier-Math-Other-Letters-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [MathItalic] [Fourier-Math-Letters-Italic-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [MathSymbol] [Fourier-Math-Symbols]
\definefontsynonym [MathExtension] [Fourier-Math-Extension]
\stoptypescript
and just a new line in
\starttypescript [math] [fourier] [name]
\definefontsynonym [MathRoman] [Fourier-Math-Letters]
\definefontsynonym [MathGamma] [Fourier-Math-Other-Letters]
\definefontsynonym [MathItalic] [Fourier-Math-Letters-Italic]
\definefontsynonym [MathSymbol] [Fourier-Math-Symbols]
\definefontsynonym [MathExtension] [Fourier-Math-Extension]
\stoptypescript
type-enc : added
\starttypescript [boldmath] [fourier] [default,ec]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Letters-Bold] [futb8t] [encoding=ec]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Other-Letters-Bold] [futmib]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Letters-Italic-Bold] [futmiib]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Symbols] [futsy]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Extension] [fourier-mex]
\stoptypescript
and a new line in
\starttypescript [math] [fourier] [default,ec]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Letters] [futr8t] [encoding=ec]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Other-Letters] [futmi]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Letters-Italic] [futmii]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Symbols] [futsy]
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Math-Extension] [fourier-mex]
\stoptypescript
The two new lines allow to have a choice beetween sloped and upright
greek in math-fou
For instance, if you want upright capital letters, just say [mc] instead
of [mi]:
\definemathsymbol [Gamma] [alpha] [mc] ["00]
\definemathsymbol [Delta] [alpha] [mc] ["01]
etc.
You can also define \alphaup, \betaup, etc.
Test sourcefile
\usetypescript [fourier] [\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont [fourier]
\definetypeface [foo] [mm] [boldmath] [fourier] [default]
\starttext
This is a silly test that is taking way too long!
\startformula
x = \Gamma + \Delta + \alpha + \delta + \zeta
\stopformula
\startformula[foo]
x = \Gamma + \Delta + \alpha + \delta + \zeta
\stopformula
\stoptext
Could you carefully test it at your home?
I attach the pdf.
