\n

The Quant Tekel news trading rule determines whether traders can freely open, close, or modify positions during major news events listed on ForexFactory.com<\/a>. These rules apply to both the challenge phase and the funded account phase.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n


\nThe Simple Answer<\/b><\/h3>\n
\n

News trading is NOT permitted with Quant Tekel, and the rules apply to all account types and phases (both challenge and funded).<\/p>\n

This means, traders are not permitted to trade before and after news events.<\/p>\n

2 Step Challenge<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Stage<\/th>\nNews Trading Allowed?<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
Step 1 (Challenge)<\/td>\nNo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Step 2 (Challenge)<\/td>\nNo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Funded Account<\/td>\nNo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Quant Tekel News Trading Restrictions<\/b><\/h3>\n

You are restricted from manually opening or closing trades, adjusting Stop Loss (SL) or Take Profit (TP), or placing, editing, or canceling limit orders within 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after high-impact economic news releases.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
This creates a 10-minute window during which these actions are prohibited.<\/div>\n

For example, if a news event occurs at 1:00 PM, you cannot open or close any position from 12:55 PM (5 minutes before) to 1:05 PM (5 minutes after).<\/p>\n

This creates a 10-minute window during which you should avoid trading.<\/p>\n

After that 10-minute window passes, you can trade freely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Limit Orders<\/b><\/h3>\n

Limit orders placed over 5 minutes before a news release, with set Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP), can trigger during the event without issue and will not result in a violation of the news trading rule.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Violating the Quant Tekel News Trading Rule<\/b><\/h3>\n

Violations result in a soft breach, meaning your account will be reset, requiring you to restart from Step 1 of the 2-step evaluation, regardless of whether the breach occurred in Step 1, Step 2, or the Funded Account stage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A hard breach, by contrast, permanently disables your account and disqualifies you from profit splits.<\/div>\n
\n
\n

However, trading during news events does not result in a hard breach, only a soft breach.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
