News Trading Stocks & Shares On A Funded Account
Combining News Trading with Stocks & Shares on a funded account lets you run a focused playbook with up to $400K of firm capital. Stocks & Shares trades during regular exchange hours, and news trading is trading the volatility around scheduled economic releases.
Why news trading Stocks & Shares?
Stocks & Shares offers company-specific catalysts like earnings and guidance, which pairs well with news trading. Earnings season creates gap risk, so many funded traders flatten before scheduled announcements.
For news trading specifically you want firms that explicitly allow news trading and fast, low-slippage execution, and Stocks & Shares can provide exactly that during its most active hours.
Rules and risk
The funded-account framework applies the same way: a 4% max daily loss, a 7% max drawdown and a profit target. Spreads widen and slippage spikes around the release, so entries, stops and size all have to account for it.
Keep risk per trade small and fixed, and protect the daily loss limit no matter how good a setup looks.
Getting funded
Pick an account size that fits your news trading position sizing, pass the evaluation, and trade Stocks & Shares with firm capital. You keep up to 100% of profits with payouts in hours.
