Frequently asked questions

Does FTMO allow news trading?

Yes. FTMO allows news trading on both evaluation and funded accounts. However, they recommend caution during high-impact events due to wider spreads.

Which news events move markets the most?

NFP (Nonfarm Payrolls), decisiones del FOMC y datos de CPI son los más volátiles.

Can I use a straddle strategy for news trading?

Technically yes, but many prop firms prohibit hedging or opposing positions. A straddle with pending orders on both sides may violate certain firm rules.

Consequences vary: some firms void the profit, others issue a warning, and strict firms may breach the account. Always check the specific policy.

Is news trading profitable long-term?

It can be, but it requires strict risk management. The high volatility around news events amplifies both gains and losses.
