Emergency Market Closure Warning: U.S. stock markets are closed tonight, and various futures markets are提前“closing” early. Risk control must be maximized!
Attention to traders monitoring the market! On January 19th (Monday), due to Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the U.S. stock market will officially enter “silent mode” — all major exchanges including NYSE and NASDAQ will be closed for the day. Normal trading will resume on January 20th (Tuesday).
Even more concerning is that the “closing” time for overseas futures markets is much earlier than expected! CME’s U.S. Treasury and stock index futures will close early at 02:00 Beijing time on the 20th, and precious metals and crude oil futures will end trading at 03:30. ICE (sugar, cotton, etc.) and CBOT agricultural futures will be closed all day, suspending all trading activities.
High-Risk Warning
Holiday closures lead to a sharp decrease in market liquidity. Historical data shows that such “thin” trading environments are highly prone to sharp fluctuations, “pin spike”行情, and even situations where orders cannot be executed normally. If you still hold positions, be sure to immediately:
- Tighten stop-loss and take-profit ranges, reduce leverage;
- Verify the validity of unfilled orders to avoid passive holdings;
- Be alert to the risk of margin ratio increases, ensure sufficient account funds, and prevent forced liquidation.
The current market risk level has soared. It is recommended to adopt a defensive approach, avoid blindly chasing orders, and carefully respond to market fluctuations before and after the holiday!$BTC $ETH
