Read the Market Weather First
You can classify the session as constructive, caution, or risk-off and say what that changes.
Lesson objective
Be able to classify the current market into one of three simple conditions and state what that condition should change about your behavior.
Preview
The same chart behaves differently depending on the environment around it. This lesson gives you a simple three-way read of market conditions and connects each read to how careful you should be, not to a trade to place.

Risk reminder
Market condition is context, never a signal. A constructive read does not make a bad setup good, and news awareness informs your caution — it never authorizes an entry by itself.
Education only. This lesson is not financial advice, a trade signal, or a promise of results. Test in paper first, size every idea by what you can afford to lose, and remember that you control your own broker account and your own decisions.
