Read the morning market research emails\r\n2. Generate the Daily Market Rundown markdown briefing\r\n3. Update the existing HTML dashboard\r\n\r\nThe HTML dashboard should be updated in the same file each day so new rundowns are appended rather than replacing previous ones.\r\n\r\nThis allows the dashboard to maintain a running archive of daily market briefings that can be reviewed later.\r\n\r\nThe task should execute automatically without manual input.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prompt 1 \u2014 Define the Structure I want to build a Daily Market Rundown workflow for traders.
