Glossary · News trading

What is news trading?

Opening or closing trades around high-impact economic releases.

Releases like US jobs data or interest-rate decisions can move prices sharply. Some firms ban trading a few minutes before and after them, at least on funded accounts.

If you trade the news, pick a firm whose rules allow it.
