We fully allow news trading on evaluation phase.
On Funded Stage we give you plenty of freedom to trade the news while keeping the environment fair for everyone.
✔ You can always hold open positions.
Any trades you placed before the news window stay active—you never have to close them.
✔ Trades opened well in advance are fully protected.
Positions entered at least 2 hours before the scheduled news time are not affected by any news-trading rules.
⏱ Short “quiet period” for new entries.
To keep conditions fair during extreme volatility, there’s just a brief 8-minute pause (4 minutes before and 4 minutes after the news release) when opening new trades is restricted.
💡 If you enter right before the window closes
Orders opened inside this 8-minute period are simply not permitted.
If you opened a trade before the window but it closes in profit during the window, we’ll just remove the profit from that trade—no account breach.
