Prop Firms That Allow News Trading (2026)

81 prop firms we track allow news trading, and the best rated is The5ers (4.4/5): its $100K 2-step account (High Stakes Challenge): 8% / 5% target, 4% daily loss limit, 8% static max loss, 80% split, $455. FundedNext, FTMO and Traders Launch follow. Some firms allow news trading in the challenge but restrict it on funded accounts.

News trading means holding or opening positions around high-impact releases such as NFP, CPI or central bank decisions. Many firms ban trades within a few minutes of these events.

The firms on this list allow it, at least on some account types. Restrictions often return on funded accounts, so check the funded rules.

How this page is built: Firms whose rules allow news trading, per their published features. Ranked by our score. Firms with open warnings are left out of the picks. Prices are official list prices without promo codes; fees due after passing are included.

Order: our score. ⚠ marks firms with warnings; read the review before buying.

Trading the news on a prop account

Spreads and slippage widen. Fills during releases can be far from your price; a stop can be passed through, which can break a daily limit.

Check both stages. A firm can allow news trading in the challenge and forbid it on the funded account, or only on some programs.

Static drawdown helps. A news spike against you is easier to survive when the floor does not trail your equity.
