There has been an increase in the frequency of military conflicts or situations that could lead to conflict. Even markets not located in conflict areas have been affected by such events. Traders receive messages from brokers saying, "Be aware that escalating geopolitical tensions could impact market conditions."
I advise traders to avoid trading during this period, as this may result in a drop in liquidity, causing spreads to widen, volatility to spike, and price gaps to widen.

Trading in troubled times is characterized by heightened volatility, increased risk, and rapid market fluctuations. Investors often flock to safe-haven assets such as gold, government bonds, and stable currencies. Liquidity can become a significant concern, as markets may experience sharp declines in trading volumes. Regulatory bodies might impose restrictions to curb extreme market behaviors, such as short-selling bans or circuit breakers to halt trading temporarily. Emotional trading driven by fear and uncertainty tends to dominate, leading to potentially irrational market movements. Additionally, there is a greater reliance on real-time news and economic indicators, as traders seek to navigate the uncertain environment. Diversification becomes crucial, as well as adopting more conservative investment strategies to mitigate potential losses.
