Why are there higher margin requirements around news?

During high-impact news events — such as central bank interest rate decisions, Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP), GDP releases, or major geopolitical announcements — markets can experience sudden liquidity drops and sharp, unpredictable price movements. To protect traders from extreme volatility, Opheleo may temporarily increase margin requirements around such events. This helps ensure traders have sufficient capital to withstand rapid price swings and reduces the risk of stop outs caused by temporary market dislocations. It is advisable to check margin requirements on your MT5 account before major scheduled news events.
