SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents unsafe trades by detecting high-impact macroeconomic events and enforcing risk-based wait/hold behavior to protect capital during unstable liquidity and volatility conditions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Macro event risk filtering: Classifies events into RED, ORANGE, and YELLOW priorities and applies strict trading actions (WAIT, reduce confidence, or monitor).
  • Pre- and post-news safety windows: Enforces different cooldown behaviors 30 minutes before RED events, 15 minutes before ORANGE events, and resumes only after spreads and market structure stabilize post-event.
  • Currency impact & Powell speech handling: Maps event impact to affected pairs and applies immediate WAIT plus a minimum 45-minute cooldown for Powell speeches.
  • Output-ready safety states & messaging: Produces clear risk outputs (SAFE/CAUTION/HIGH RISK/UNSAFE) and generates WhatsApp macro warning and daily macro brief templates.

Quick Start

Use the forexfactory-integration.md skill to produce a macro risk decision for the current time, including whether to WAIT or reduce confidence based on the detected ForexFactory event severity and impacted currencies.

FAQPage Schema
How do I pause trading during high-impact news events like NFP or CPI releases?

To pause trading during high-impact news events, this Skill filters forex decisions by enforcing a WAIT state for RED priority events like NFP and CPI. It applies a 30-minute pre-news safety window and resumes only after market spreads stabilize post-event.

What is a macro risk cooldown and how does it protect forex liquidity?

A macro risk cooldown protects forex liquidity by blocking trades around volatile economic releases. The Skill enforces severity-based timing rules, preventing unsafe entries during unstable market conditions like central bank statements.

How do I handle Powell speeches and central bank statements in my trading safety logic?

Handling Powell speeches requires applying an immediate WAIT state plus a minimum 45-minute post-news cooldown. The Skill detects these central bank statements and maps their impact to affected currency pairs to prevent bypassing macro filtering.

Does this macro event risk filter require specific ForexFactory data inputs?

Yes, the macro event risk filter requires verified ForexFactory event inputs with currency-impact mapping. It uses these inputs to classify events into RED, ORANGE, and YELLOW priorities and generate output-ready SAFE, CAUTION, HIGH RISK, or UNSAFE safety states.

What are the limitations of using event-driven forex monitoring for capital preservation?

A key limitation of event-driven forex monitoring is its strict dependency on verified external ForexFactory inputs; without accurate currency-impact mapping, severity-based timing logic cannot function. It also conservatively enforces WAIT states, potentially missing volatile post-news opportunities.
