FundedNext Futures does not impose any news trading rules, meaning traders are allowed to engage in news trading during both the Challenge Account and the FundedNext Account.
However, while there are no restrictions on news trading, traders should be aware of the potential risks associated with high-impact economic events.
In Futures trading, news events generally fall into two categories:
Scheduled Economic Releases: Reports like Non-Farm Payroll (NFP), Consumer Price Index (CPI), Federal Reserve FOMC statements, and GDP reports, which can create sharp market movements.
Unscheduled Market Events: Unexpected events such as geopolitical conflicts, central bank interventions, or sudden commodity supply shocks, which can cause extreme volatility.
Market conditions can change rapidly, leading to:
Increased volatility: Prices can spike or drop suddenly, making risk management crucial.
Liquidity concerns: Rapid price movements can temporarily reduce available liquidity, impacting order execution.
To navigate these challenges effectively, traders should implement solid risk management strategies while engaging in news trading under FundedNext Futures news trading rules.
