Trading during high-impact news is allowed, but the News Volatility Period (5 minutes before and after the release) is monitored. Trades that appear to exploit volatility or news-driven price spikes may trigger compliance review and corrective actions.

Two policies depending on the account creation date:

Accounts opened after 2026-04-27

• News trading is allowed.
• Profits generated within 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after a red folder (high-impact) news event or FOMC are capped at 0.5% of the starting balance per payout cycle.
• Anything above the cap is removed without further penalty.

Accounts opened before 2026-04-27

• Trades opened or closed within 5 minutes before or 5 minutes after a red folder news event or FOMC on funded accounts are not allowed.
• Any profits generated during these windows are removed.

60 days in evaluation phase, 30 days in funded phase.

Evaluation phases: no consistency rule, except on 100K and 200K account sizes (where the Best Day Profit Ratio cap applies). Live (funded) phase: 50% Best Day Profit Ratio cap across Core, Value and Flash. The rule does not breach the account; it only blocks phase passing or payout until the ratio falls within the cap.

Applies on funded accounts. A single trading day cannot equal or exceed a given percentage of total profits during the payout period. If it does, payouts are blocked until the ratio normalises; the account is not closed.
