News Trading Rule

News trading is strictly limited to Swing accounts. If you are using a Regular account (1 Step & 2-Step), you are required to close all trades at least 5 minutes before a high-impact news event and avoid opening any new trades until 5 minutes after the event has passed.You cannot hold any open positions before the news release if those positions were opened in regular accounts you will get Breach. This rule is in place to maintain fair trading conditions and reduce the risks associated with extreme market volatility during news releases. All news events are tracked using Forex Factory, which serves as our official source for news timings and classifications. It is your responsibility to monitor this calendar and manage your trades accordingly.

You may not hold any open positions during the news release. No new USD-related positions may be opened until after 14:05 UTC.
