You’re permitted to trade during news events, but our system will cancel out any profits made within a 4-minute window (2 minutes before and 2 minutes after) of high-impact news events. You can keep your trades open during this time, but you won’t be able to open or close new positions. Repeatedly violating this rule may result in account restrictions. Additionally, any trades placed or closed within the 4-minute window during evaluation phases will lead to account restrictions. High-impact news events are those listed in the red folder on ForexFactory.
