Trade The Pool: News & earnings

ConditionalWarningVerifiedUpdated Jun 5, 2026

General news trading is allowed. But during earnings season you may NOT hold an overnight position in a reporting company (or any instrument tracking/mirroring/leveraged-inverse to it). 'Bracketing' around major news events (straddling) is prohibited.

The gotcha

The stock-specific trap is the earnings rule — no overnight in a reporter, extended to any ETF/leveraged/inverse that tracks it.

The numbers

news	ALLOWED
earningsOvernight	FORBIDDEN
bracketing	FORBIDDEN
