Friday volatility can spike unpredictably—if you're holding positions into the close, stay sharp. Weekend gaps often trap retail traders, especially when liquidity dries up. Don't let yourself become exit liquidity. Consider trimming exposure before the week ends, or at least set your stop-losses tight. The stakes get real when most of the market goes dark.

This wave on Friday is really easy to get trapped. I've been wiped out a few times by weekend gaps. Now I always close my positions before the market closes to prevent the main players from using me as exit liquidity.

Friday's market situation is really a trap. Last time, I got hit hard by greed and a gap. The idea of exit liquidity is too heartbreaking; frankly, it just means don't become someone else's leek.

This Friday's move is no small matter. The distribution of chips clearly shows that retail investors are about to become the bagholders again. The pattern has already formed, and I warned about the risk release point three days ago. If you still haven't reduced your positions... I wish you good luck on Monday morning.

This terrible market on Friday really, I got cut off if I wasn't careful. Last time, I was greedy and didn't set a stop-loss, and as a result, the weekend gap directly wiped me out.
