    Thanks for the reminder.

    Which brings up the inevitable question: When a strong trade signal based on daily bars is set up for a Friday morning, and said Friday is a market holiday, is the signal still valid on the next trading day?

    Go ask Alice.

    4 days off in the UK. Not trying to rub it in, I'm just saying so you know......
     
  6. I wokeup today, ready to paper trade...I thought it was Saturday...the charts were the same, locked.
    I refreshed my browser like five times, tried multiple websites to see the same chart...until I realized today was a Holiday.

    Why is this "rare"? Weren't markets closed last Good Friday? Aren't they closed every Good Friday?
     
  9. Maybe the topic starter considers the fact that the options expiry coincides with a holiday a rare occasion.
     
  10. Other markets in Europe will also have a holiday on Monday, thus four day weekend.
