What is My Funded Futures's news trading (tier-1 restriction) rule?

General news trading is allowed, but trading during Tier-1 economic data releases is RESTRICTED. High-frequency trading and exploiting gap/illiquid fills are prohibited. Watch out: 'News trading allowed' doesn't mean you can trade the NFP/CPI/FOMC print itself — doing so can void the account and confiscate profits.
