News Gap and Break Gap Trading Abuse. All products observe a break either intraday, daily or weekly. It is the norm that the last price before the break and the first price after the break to be significantly different. This difference, also known as a ‘gap’, means there is no market (no tradable prices) in that range. A gap can also be the outcome of news release. The Company is proud to offer in its Proprietary Platforms and mobile apps a guaranteed stop loss, take profit, pending order execution and negative balance protection to protect and enhance the trading of its clients. Negative balance protection is offered on all Platforms. Nonetheless, it is prohibited to use these features in bad faith. Examples where these features are used in bad faith are: I. Positions opened minutes or even seconds before the break or news release, in an attempt to generate profits without the risk of market moves. II. Positions that are large enough compared to the balance of the account, in an attempt to either generate profits or end up in a negative balance, which the company pays on your behalf. III. Simultaneous positions in the opposite direction (pending or market orders), indicating no interest in the market direction.
