On some occasions, brokers or liquidity providers may change their rules when there is important news. For example, they can add restrictions on trades, widen spreads, or temporarily stop order execution.

During news events, the spread in the forex market can widen significantly. This occurs because high-impact news releases attract increased trading activity, leading to higher volatility and liquidity fluctuations. Brokers may widen spreads to account for the heightened risk and market uncertainty during these times. As a result, traders may experience higher transaction costs when executing trades. It is important for traders to be aware of the potential spread widening during news events and consider adjusting their trading strategies accordingly. Monitoring economic calendars and utilizing appropriate risk management techniques can help navigate the impact of widened spreads and minimize the potential adverse effects on trading positions.

Yes, spreads can become longer when news is released in the forex market. When a major news event is released, the market can become volatile as traders react to the news, causing spreads to widen. This is due to a sudden increase in volatility, which can lead to significant price fluctuations and an increased spread.
