How to Choose
News trading is one of the most profitable strategies for short-term traders, but many prop firms restrict or ban it entirely. The firms above explicitly allow trading during high-impact economic events.
Even with news trading allowed, watch for these restrictions:
- 2-minute rule — some firms restrict new positions within 2 minutes of news release
- Max profit cap during news — Goat Funded Trader caps news trade profits at 1% of balance
- Spread widening — spreads can widen 10-20x during news, affecting stop levels
- Slippage on funded accounts — real execution differs from challenge phase simulation
