News Trading Guidelines

Updated over 2 weeks ago

XPIPS supports news trading and does not restrict traders from holding positions during major economic releases.

What you can do

  • Keep all open positions running during news events

  • Trades opened before a restricted window may remain active without any forced closures

  • Trading is fully allowed during the Evaluation phase

Funded Accounts – Entry Restrictions

To maintain equal conditions during periods of extreme volatility, XPIPS applies a short entry restriction window around high-impact news releases.

⏱ Restricted window:

  • 5 minutes before the news release

  • 5 minutes after the news release

During this 10-minute window, opening new trades is not allowed.

How profits are handled

  • Trades opened inside the restricted window are not permitted

  • If a trade was opened before the restricted window and closes in profit during the news window, the profit from that trade will be removed

  • The account itself will not be breached in this case

This policy allows traders to participate in news-driven markets while ensuring fairness and stability across all funded accounts.
