im genuinely confused why some people are trading on market open, for me, that time is just noise/choppiness until market evens out, even in normal time no war, i never trade on a sunday night market open. why people saying ' oh when we pass x or y we will sky rocket' why would you consider the current movement to reflect the week ahead? the market just re-opened, needs to shuffle around, find its feet before continuing on its direction for the nxt 24 hrs. weird. i thought that was common knowledge

I have a question about trading before the market opens. Before today’s market opened, the price was around 4505, and I had a strong feeling the market would move up. If I had opened a long position while the market was still closed, and then 2 to 3 minutes after the market opened the price jumped to 4545, would I have made profit from that move? Or does it not work like this because of the market opening price, spread, slippage, or execution rules? I want to understand whether entering before market open would allow me to catch that jump, or whether...
Yes you would but you cant close your trade say your tp was 4535 it wont close until market opens but say your SL was 4495 and it done the opposite and opened at at 4450 your screwed that's why I always have positions closed just before the weekend unless I'm in a swing trade if your going to do it go in a lot smaller than your usual because its a high high risk especially in these times!

Because statistically closing gaps are not bad idea, especially if closing direction is aligning with your overall bias. I like to close gap down openings at Gold but having difficulty in closing gap ups due to my overall bullish bias regarding Gold.

Well I haven't went in blindly my reason for short is because 1: Gold is in stacked supply zones, 2: theres a 15 minute -COG and 3: DXY closed on a 5min +COG out of a demand so I have 3 confirmations to go short I still might be wrong but yeah not blind...

Market doesn't care for commom sense 1st place.
Second if people think as you do had miss more than a 50% move from last week...
You have your own way of trading, other people have their own.
And beside that, wich tf people are trading open/close of each candles tell a story.
But i can tell you this, i get confused is why people think price is waiting for us.
People eat to much ICT's bullshits about time,misunderstanding time and timing.

Opening position before the market open is not even possible with my broker ...I am not sure if it is possible with some brokers ...does your broker allow that (the fact that you ask seems to suggest you can do that)?

Try to have a meta trader 5 account, this gurantees you full access to the fx, comodoities and cfds shares, everything worldwide.

It is to be noted that, your broker is having no access to your account he is only aware of your account balance, doesn't know anything about your equity or your open positions so if he is a market maker you are 100% safe.
