Can I trade during the weekend and during news periods?
Updated over 2 weeks ago

By default, you do not have the option to hold positions over the weekend, but YOU CAN KEEP OPEN TRADES as long as you add the "HOLD WEEKEND" addon to your purchase.

You will be able to trade during news moments but only in the Evaluation phase and it will NOT be allowed in the simulated funding phase. Keep in mind that the removal of these conditions impacts both profits and losses, so proper risk management is required. It is important to note that recent research has shown that stock markets experience their most significant movements when they are closed.

**Trading during volatile news periods can involve additional risks. High volatility can lead to price slippage, meaning trade executions may not be at the desired price. Additionally, spreads may widen, and trades may be closed before or after your TP and SL limits. Closing issues may also arise, such as being unable to close a position at the desired time due to rapid market movements. It's important to consider these risks when trading under high volatility conditions.
