Can I Trade News?
Updated over 4 months ago

Yes, you can trade news, but we advise traders to exercise caution. The market can be highly volatile and unpredictable during news releases, leading to increased volatility and liquidity. This can result in wider spreads and slippage, making it more challenging to execute trades at the desired price.

However, news trading is not allowed on funded accounts. For trades executed on your funded account, please refrain from opening or closing trades 10 minutes before and 10 minutes after high-impact (red folder) news events. Any profits earned during this time will be subject to removal without any account violation. Head over to the Economic Calendar section of your trader dashboard to see when these red folder events are happening throughout the week.
