Weekend holding means keeping open positions from Friday's close through to Sunday evening's re-open. Markets can gap significantly over the weekend due to geopolitical events, economic developments, or natural disasters.
Swing traders and position traders often need to hold through weekends as part of their strategy. Firms that force flat positions by Friday close limit you to intraday or short-term strategies only.
Positions held over the weekend face gap risk when markets reopen Sunday evening. Your drawdown and daily loss calculations continue to apply at the open. If the market gaps against you, the resulting loss could breach your limits. Firms that allow weekend holding accept this risk.
Firms that require flattening want to avoid the unpredictable gap risk that occurs when markets reopen. Geopolitical events, natural disasters, and economic developments over the weekend can cause significant opening gaps that exceed normal stop-loss levels.
Weekend holding is essential for swing traders and position traders who hold trades for days or weeks. Day traders and scalpers typically don't need it. If your strategy requires holding overnight or over weekends, make sure your chosen firm explicitly allows it.
