News trading is permitted during the Challenge Phase. However, in the Live Simulated Accounts, News trading is prohibited.

Any trade opened or closed 3 minutes before or after a Red Label/High Risk news release will result in the removal of any profits made on all applicable trades in violation. It is important to note that this is a soft breach and will not result in the termination of your account. You are also free to continue holding news trades through the 3-minute violation window.

To understand which news events are applicable, please visit FOREXFACTORY, which will align with our restrictions filtered by “red folder/red label”.

Only the affected currencies are restricted during the news event relating to the affected pair. For example, all news events affecting USD will result in the restriction of USD-denominated pairs such as EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAUUSD, SPX, NAS, DOW, etc. Forexfactory includes the affected currency for each news event for reference.

Pending orders added but not executed during the news window will not be affected in any capacity as they are not buy or sell orders. We understand this somewhat limits long-term swing traders and are exploring options to allow this under certain conditions.

Please note: Opening and closing positions immediately before the news window and after are subject to having your profits removed. We do not promote gambling here and nor do we condone it.

Please familiarize yourself with this calendar and the dates of Red Folder news events. To access the link directly, please click the button below:​


We hope that this will promote good risk management and more consistent trading behavior within our trading community and will help clients establish a good, consistent trading pattern.
