Notes for EA trading

Speeches and commentary from central bank officials can sometimes coincide with periods of heightened volatility. Spreads may widen around such events, so it is worth checking your broker's conditions. Some traders consider pausing their EAs around major releases and speeches, and it is wise to review risk settings in advance.
