Evening

Evening Session — EOD + SOD together (global, MCP-only)

Replaces the old project-local /evening. Composes sod/SKILL.md and eod/SKILL.md (both now global, MCP-only) — it does not duplicate their content, and does not read or write journal/, metrics/, account/, or PROMPTS.md. CLAUDE.md at /Users/latuconsinafr/Personal/Trading/Journals/CLAUDE.md remains the rulebook.

Why the order matters and why the dates differ: a SOD verdict written tonight (~21:00) governs trading through tomorrow night's session. So the EOD half of tonight's sitting closes out a different, earlier calendar date than the SOD half opens. Running EOD before SOD also means tonight's fresh verdict is informed by how the prior one actually played out.

Instruments — resolved live via get_active_instruments. This file uses EU/GU/UJ/XAU shorthand like CLAUDE.md does for readability, but the active set is not assumed fixed — the composed sod/eod steps below each call get_active_instruments and use its full pair codes for every MCP call. See sod/SKILL.md's header for why a hardcoded table isn't used (a rejected call during its own smoke test, 2026-08-18, back when it was one).

Step 0 — check what day it actually is

The forex market is closed Saturday and most of Sunday.

• Saturday → no evening session. Point to /week-end if that week hasn't been closed out yet. Stop.
• Sunday → no evening session — Friday's flatten closed everything and nothing has traded since, so there's no fresh EOD and no live chart for a SOD verdict. Point to /week-start. Stop. (Market typically reopens Sunday evening ET, roughly Monday 04:00–05:00 WIB — confirm against MT5 rather than assuming; brokers vary.)
• Friday → proceed, but see the Friday handling in Step 4 — the SOD half is constrained, not skipped.
• Monday–Thursday → proceed normally.

Step 1 — check for a §6 event window right now

Check current WIB time against any known red-folder releases already surfaced this session. If inside a §6 window, note it — informational, blocks new order placement only, not analysis or review.

Step 2 — gather charts ONCE, for both halves together

Screenshot once per session, not once per half. The EOD review and tonight's SOD both read the market at the same moment, so one set of charts covers both.

Charts are filed by when captured — today — never by which entry they inform. The EOD half is about an earlier date ([PENDING]), but tonight's charts still live under today's folder.

In practice: the SOD half unconditionally needs D1/H4/M15 for every active instrument (per sod/SKILL.md Step 3, resolved via get_active_instruments), which already covers whatever conditional M15 subset the EOD half needs (open position, pending order, active "wait for level", or a red-folder day on [PENDING]) — so just ask for the full active-set chart list once.

Check charts/[TODAY]/ (flat) on disk first per the same convention as sod/SKILL.md Step 3; ask only for whatever's genuinely missing. State plainly that tonight's charts are being used to review an earlier date, so the capture-date/review-date gap is honest in the record.

Step 3 — run the pending EOD(s), mark anything genuinely missed

Follow eod/SKILL.md Step 0 (MCP connectivity check) and Step 1 exactly — it scans the full gap via get_session_completeness, not just one date, splitting it into PENDING (real reviews, oldest-first) and MISSED (no protocol, no thesis, ever — eod/SKILL.md Step 5). Use tonight's charts (Step 2 above) for every PENDING review in the gap.

• Nothing in the gap → say so, move to Step 4.
• PENDING days → run each in full via eod/SKILL.md Steps 2–7, oldest first.
• MISSED days → mark per eod/SKILL.md Step 5. Common after exactly the scenario /evening exists to prevent — not a failure of this skill, it's correctly refusing to invent what didn't happen.

Step 4 — run tonight's SOD

Follow sod/SKILL.md Steps 1–7 exactly, using today's actual calendar date and the charts already gathered in Step 2 — the one place in this combined session where "today" is the correct default, since tonight's verdict governs trading forward.

If today is Friday — run the analysis, but state the constraint before the verdict

CLAUDE.md §18 still requires a journal entry — do not skip the SOD half. State plainly, before running the checklist, that §10 requires everything flat by ~04:00 WIB Saturday (≈7 hours from a 21:00 session), and a framework built on higher-timeframe structural entries has no setup sized for a 7-hour hold. The expected outcome is stand-aside on every instrument — reached because the checklist genuinely returns it, not asserted in place of running it.

As part of this same session, not deferred to Monday:

• Close any open position manually at market (via close_trade once actually closed in the broker platform — this skill has no live order access, same as everywhere else) — don't leave it to hit stop or target over the weekend.
• Confirm every resting order gets cancelled in the broker platform.
• Confirm no new order will be placed tonight, regardless of what the analysis finds.

Log missed-opportunity hypotheticals as normal for whatever verdict the checklist produces — data collection continues on Fridays same as any other day.

Step 5 — orders and the Pre-Trade Check

If Step 4 produces an "enter now" verdict or a level to watch, follow sod/SKILL.md Step 7 — point the pilot to the webapp's /trades/new. The compliant entry style is a resting limit placed tonight, not a market order during work hours — the Pre-Trade Check exists before the order rests, not when it fills.

Step 6 — close out

Confirm, via MCP reads (not file checks): get_session_completeness shows eodDone: true for the closed-out [PENDING] date(s) and sodDone: true for today. Confirm every write in eod/SKILL.md Step 7 and sod/SKILL.md Step 6 actually landed — if any call failed partway through either half, say so explicitly rather than treating the night as fully recorded.

Once this session is closed out, it's over — no re-checking charts before tomorrow's 21:00.
