Is News Trading allowed?

We take a balanced approach to news trading to protect both your account and trading opportunities: 

  • Challenge accounts: Trade freely during news events to develop and test your strategies in volatile markets.
  • Funded accounts: News trading is only permitted with the Major News Trading add-on, which gives you full access to trade during high-impact events.

Remember: News trading requires careful risk management due to potential rapid price movements and wider spreads.

News restriction window

To ensure fair and orderly trading, all trading activity is prohibited during an 8-minute restriction window around major economic events (±4 minutes from release). This restriction applies to:

  • Market order execution and closure
  • Pending limit order execution 
  • Take-profit and stop-loss triggers

These measures only apply to instruments directly affected by the specific news event.

Understanding our support system for News Trading rules

We recognize that unintentional violations can occur, which is why we’ve implemented a supportive warning system:

Challenge Type               Warning PolicyFinal Outcome
One-Phase & Two-Phase Funded StageUp to 2 warnings with a deduction of net profits for trades within the protection window.Third instance leads to an account breach.
Instant FundingUp to 2 warnings with a net profit deduction for trades within the protection window.Third instance leads to an account breach.

Any profit adjustments from news trading violations won’t impact your daily drawdown limits, though overall drawdown changes will remain in effect.

News event guidelines

We consider high-impact (red news) events listed on FX Factory and/or FX Street as major news events. For your convenience:

  • These events require the News Trading add-on during the 8-minute window in funded accounts.
  • “All Day” red folder events are excluded from restrictions since they don’t have specific release times.
  • News straddling and bracketing aren’t permitted as they can create unfair advantages.

Our goal is to maintain a level playing field and provide clear trading guidelines.

Hypothetical/simulated environment disclosure. All trading activities performed using our trading platform are executed in a simulated environment. Please note that, we only offer virtual demo accounts where live market conditions are simulated and any reference to “funded” used on our website or in any of our terms and conditions is a reference to virtual funding only. Furthermore, users should be aware that the trading results in this environment do not reflect real trading outcomes.

The simulated trading environment in our trading platform is specifically designed for educational and evaluation purposes only. The “funds” provided to you for the evaluation are fictitious and do not represent any form of real currency and therefore you have no right to possess those fictitious funds beyond the scope of their use within the trading portal and for the sole purpose of the evaluation.

Hypothetical and/or simulated performance results have fundamental limitations as they do not represent real trading conditions. Moreover, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact of any market factors, such as lack of liquidity. We do not make any representation as to the fact that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown in hypothetical results.

Evaluation disclaimer. Trader accounts aim to simulate trading that can be closely aligned, including, commissions and spreads. However, the evaluation is challenging and may not be suitable for individuals with limited or no trading experience.
