Can I Trade the News?

Can I Trade the News?

Traders who opt for the “news trading addon” can trade any type of economic data without restrictions. However, if an account does not include this addon and trades on medium or high-impact economic data, it will result in a breach of the account.

For accounts without the news trading addon, the following rules apply:

  • You must wait at least 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after the release of medium or high-impact data.

  • Medium or high-impact data is identified by orange or red highlights on Forex Factory. Examples of high-impact data include:

  • FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee) meetings

  • PMI (Purchasing Managers' Index)

  • Interest rate decisions

  • NFP (Non-Farm Payrolls)

For additional examples, please refer to:

By adhering to these guidelines, traders can avoid account breaches related to news trading.
