On funded accounts, a 2-minute restriction applies before and after selected high-impact news events. The Instant funded account does not allow news trading by default, but all funded accounts can unlock news trading by purchasing the Swing add-on at checkout.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!-- SECTION 3: Table --><br \/>\nBelow is a breakdown of how the FunderPro news trading rules apply across different account types and stages.<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Challenge Type<\/th>\n<th>Evaluation Phase<\/th>\n<th>Funded Phase<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Instant<\/td>\n<td>N\/A<\/td>\n<td>Not Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1 Step (One Phase)<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<td>Not Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2 Step (Classic)<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<td>Not Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2 Step (Pro)<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<td>Not Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- SECTION 4: Breakdown by account type --><\/p>\n<h4>Breakdown by Account Type<\/h4>\n<h3>Instant<\/h3>\n<p>There is no evaluation phase for this account. On the funded account, news trading is not allowed by default. Traders can unlock news trading by purchasing the Swing add-on at checkout, though this reduces leverage by 50% except on Forex symbols which are reduced from 1:30 to 1:20.<\/p>\n<h3>1 Step (One Phase)<\/h3>\n<p>News trading is fully allowed during the evaluation phase. On the funded account, traders must close all open positions on affected assets and cannot open any trades within 2 minutes before or after a restricted news event. The Swing add-on can be purchased at checkout to unlock news trading on the funded account.<\/p>\n<h3>2 Step (Classic)<\/h3>\n<p>News trading is fully allowed during both evaluation phases. On the funded account, the same 2-minute restriction applies around selected high-impact news events. The Swing add-on removes this restriction on the funded account.<\/p>\n<h3>2 Step (Pro)<\/h3>\n<p>News trading is fully allowed during both evaluation phases. On the funded account, traders cannot open or close positions on affected assets within 2 minutes before or after a restricted news release. The Swing add-on can be purchased to unlock news trading on the funded account.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Warning System --><\/p>\n<h3>Warning System for News Rule Violations<\/h3>\n<p>FunderPro does not operate a progressive warning system for news trading violations. Violating the 2-minute news restriction on a funded account results in an immediate account breach. There are no warnings before consequences are applied.<\/p>\n<p><!-- SECTION 6: Final comments --><\/p>\n<h3>Final Comments<\/h3>\n<p>FunderPro applies a consistent 2-minute news restriction across all funded accounts, with the evaluation phase remaining fully unrestricted. The standout feature is the Swing add-on, which unlocks news trading on any funded account type including the Instant account. Traders who plan to trade news on a funded account must purchase the Swing add-on at checkout. Note that the add-on reduces leverage by 50% on most instruments, with Forex reduced from 1:30 to 1:20.<\/p>\n<p><!-- SECTION 7: Promo --><br \/>\n\ud83d\udc49 Learn more details and get exclusive discounts here: <a class=\"decorated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/propvator.com\/funder-pro\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">FunderPro Prop Firm Review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: linear-gradient(to right, #1e40af, #2563eb); padding: 10px; text-align: center; border-radius: 10px; margin-top: 20px;\">\n<p style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #fff; margin: 0; font-weight: bold; text-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\">Unlock Your Discount with FunderPro<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/propvator.com\/funder-pro\/\"><br \/>\n<button style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: #2a3da4; padding: 10px 20px; border: none; border-radius: 5px; cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; box-shadow: 0 2px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); font-size: 16px;\">Get Discount<\/button><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- SECTION 8: FAQ --><\/p>\n<h3>FAQ<\/h3>\n<h4>Is news trading allowed at FunderPro?<\/h4>\n<p>News trading is fully allowed during all evaluation phases. On funded accounts, it is not allowed unless the Swing add-on is purchased at checkout. Without the add-on, violating the 2-minute restriction results in an immediate account breach.<\/p>\n<h4>What is the restricted window on funded accounts?<\/h4>\n<p>Traders must close all open positions on affected assets and cannot open any new trades within 2 minutes before or after a restricted news release. This applies to all funded account types without the Swing add-on.<\/p>\n<h4>What is the Swing add-on and how does it work?<\/h4>\n<p>The Swing add-on is an optional purchase at checkout that unlocks news trading on funded accounts. It also allows weekend holding. Adding it reduces leverage by 50% on most instruments, with Forex reduced from 1:30 to 1:20.<\/p>\n<h4>Does the Instant funded account allow news trading?<\/h4>\n<p>Not by default. News trading on the Instant funded account requires the Swing add-on to be purchased at checkout.<\/p>\n<h4>Are all news events restricted on funded accounts?<\/h4>\n<p>No. The restriction applies only to selected high-impact news releases listed on FunderPro&#8217;s Economic Calendar page, not every news event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>View news trading rules for other forex prop firms Select a firm&#8230;Alpha CapitalFintokeiFor TradersFFFFTPFunderProFunding PipsFunding TradersFTUKGFTiFundsInstant FundingPipFarmRebelsFunding FunderPro News Trading Rule The Simple Answer News trading is allowed during all evaluation phases at FunderPro.
