← FUNDSARENAR4 Pre-Event Blackout · system_schedule · live

ETH chops sideways as traders square up ahead of the inflation print. A high-impact CPI release is 18 minutes away on ETH, and you see a clean setup forming. Do you open a position now, or stand aside?

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 data release, and CPI is only 18 minutes away. Additionally, the no-edge gate is triggered — ETH is chopping sideways with no clear trend. Standing flat is the correct, rule-compliant action.
