+## ⚠️ Important Notes
+
+### Confluence EA
+1. **Current Issue**: Only taking LONG trades - need to verify short signals
+2. **Best Pairs**: JPY pairs, USD pairs (clear trends)
+3. **Avoid**: Exotic pairs, low liquidity times
+
+### Grid EA
+1. **Best For**: Ranging markets, Asian session
+2. **Avoid**: Trending markets, high-impact news
+3. **Risk**: Can accumulate many positions during strong trends
