Yes! Atlas Funded allows you to trade during major news events. This is a notable benefit as many other firms restrict trading during high-impact news releases due to increased volatility. However, while you can trade through these events, it’s important to remember that volatility can be both an opportunity and a risk. Trading through news events increases the likelihood of hitting your daily or total drawdown limits, so we recommend using tight risk management practices when executing trades during these periods.
If your strategy involves capitalizing on market volatility during news events, Atlas Funded is a great choice. Our system imposes no restrictions on news trading as long as all other trading rules are followed, giving you the freedom to implement your strategies whenever market conditions align with your goals.
