Trading on weekends is a perfect illusion. Charts move, candles print, hope survives — but your balance quietly dies. While you wait for “the big move,” #FundingRates are doing their job, eating your account one cycle at a time.
Liquidity on weekends is thin. Very thin. That means wider spreads, random wicks, and price moves that exist only to hunt stops. No real volume, no real trend — just noise and traps. Technical analysis? Decorative.
Price can stay flat for two days, yet your balance shrinks. Not because you were wrong, but because you stayed open. Funding doesn’t care about direction, bias, or patience. It charges you for existing.
Smart traders close positions on Friday. Not because they are scared — but because they understand math. Weekends are not for trading. They are for exchanges to collect fees and for traders to learn humility.
If you want action on weekends, open Netflix — not positions!
