News Trading Rules

Some prop firms restrict trading around high-impact news. Others allow it but apply slippage, execution, or payout conditions that still matter.

What to check

• Which calendar events are restricted?
• How many minutes before and after news are banned?
• Are open trades allowed through news?
• Does the rule differ between evaluation and funded stages?

If your strategy trades volatility spikes, news rules should be checked before price.
