WSFunded news: funded-stage four-minute window
Read WSFunded's funded-account news window and stop requirements together, preserving the older-position exception without inventing permission for automatic exits.
Use the funded-stage clause
Terms 7.25 restrict trading around high-impact news on funded accounts, rather than announcing identical evaluation permissions. Match the account stage first.

Diagram explained
Check both news timing and order controls
- Funded-stage scope
- Four minutes before and after
- Read old-position and SL/TP rules
The stated window is four minutes each side
For an illustrative 12:00 event, four minutes before and after gives 11:56–12:04. Confirm the affected instrument and official event classification; the example does not recommend timing entries.
Older positions have qualified wording
The clause mentions trades opened hours before, rather than minutes before, and adds SL/TP requirements. Do not convert that wording into blanket permission for every exit in the window.
Do not remove protective orders to hide an exit
The terms prohibit removing SL/TP before the event to avoid detection. Ask about ambiguous automatic triggers in advance and preserve the order history for review.
