Today was a massive reality check. I was mid-trade in GOLD when volatility vanished.


I watched nearly 30 candles print in a perfect, dead-straight line. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like it.
After some digging, I found the culprit: CME Group halted Metals and Natural Gas due to a technical issue around 11:45 PM IST.
There I was, stuck in a live trade while the exchange essentially "froze" in time.
The Lesson:Knowing the rules isn’t the same as following them. I’ve always known "watch the news," but I rarely prioritized it.
Technicals show you the road, but the news tells you what the sky looks like. You need both to survive this game.
From now on, one screen stays locked on Bloomberg/CNBC. 📺
