Trader's Checklist for Today — English
✅ Weekend risk management: Use the quiet weekend session to review open positions and identify any gaps that may occur when markets reopen on Sunday evening (UTC). ✅ Prepare for next week: Review the upcoming week's calendar — key releases include the US GDP Second Estimate (Aug 26) and any Federal Reserve commentary. ✅ Spread awareness: Even with no scheduled events, spreads can remain wide during the weekend session due to thin liquidity. Avoid placing large market orders during this time. ✅ Verify data sources: Confirm all economic data with official sources (BLS, Federal Reserve, etc.) before making any decisions based on economic releases.
