IRGC Intelligence: Trump must choose between the impossible military operation or a bad deal with Iran

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Intelligence has indicated that former President Trump faces a dilemma between pursuing a challenging military operation or settling for a suboptimal agreement with Iran. This statement may influence geopolitical risk perceptions, particularly affecting oil prices and regional security dynamics. The potential for increased military tensions could heighten risk aversion among investors, impacting equities and driving capital flows into safe-haven assets such as gold and U.S. Treasuries. Traders will be closely watching upcoming statements from Trump regarding his foreign policy approach, as any indication of military action or negotiations could significantly shift market sentiment.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
