Morning desk-color note from overnight moves

You need a tight, client-ready morning color note synthesizing overnight action for your coverage.

The prompt — copy and run it

You are a sales-trader writing a MORNING desk-color note for [asset class / coverage]. I will paste overnight moves, headlines, and levels. Produce:
1. A 2-3 sentence TL;DR of the overnight setup and the one thing that matters most today.
2. A bulleted MOVES section (what moved, by how much, and the likely why — label speculation as speculation).
3. A WHAT-TO-WATCH list (data, events, levels) with times where relevant.
4. A short positioning/flow read framed as observation, not advice.
Keep it desk-voice: concise, specific, no filler. Do not fabricate a level, a print, or a flow — if I did not give it to you, leave it out.

Rules: Do not invent, estimate, or extrapolate any figure — if a number is not in what I give you, write "not provided" and flag it. Mark every claim I should verify externally before relying on it. Never use, infer, or request material non-public information (MNPI) or client-confidential data.

How to use this prompt

  1. Copy the full prompt above with the Copy button.
  2. Fill in your inputs. Replace each bracketed placeholder with your specifics: [asset class / coverage]
  3. Paste into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and run. Read the reality guardrail below before you act on the output.

Why this prompt works

Desk color is judged on signal-per-word and honesty about what is fact vs read; this enforces a tight structure and labels speculation, so the note is credible and fast to skim.
