P&L leak: Entering right before high-impact data → gap and whipsaw losses.

Hard rule: no new positions within 30 minutes of a high-impact CPI release. With 17 minutes to the print, opening now is non-compliant regardless of setup quality. Stand aside and reassess after the release and the initial volatility settles.

Hard rule: no new positions within 30 minutes of a high-impact data release. CPI lands in 17 minutes, so opening now is a direct mandate violation. Stand aside, let the print clear and the post-event structure form, then reassess the setup.

Stand aside because a high-impact CPI release is 17 minutes away, inside the 30-minute no-new-position window. Event risk can overwhelm the setup, so survival and mandate compliance take priority.
