Yes, you are allowed to hold trades during news events, but there are restrictions on opening and closing trades around high-impact news events.
News Trading Rules:
✔ You may hold trades through news events.
❌ You cannot open or close a trade within 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after a high-impact news event.
❌ On days with all-day high-impact news, trading is permitted, but:
Profit made on such days cannot exceed 25% of your profit target (during the evaluation).
For payouts, profit from those days cannot exceed 25% of your share of the payout request.
To avoid breaching the rules, traders should carefully manage their trades around scheduled high-impact news events.
