🚨 IRANIAN REVOLUTIONARY GUARDS SPOKESPERSON SAYS VESSELS VIOLATING REGULATIONS ANNOUNCED BY GUARDS IN STRAIT OF HORMUZ 'WILL BE STOPPED BY FORCE' - STATE MEDIA

The Iranian Revolutionary Guards have announced that vessels violating their regulations in the Strait of Hormuz will be forcibly stopped, escalating tensions in a critical maritime corridor. This development could impact global oil supply and prices, as the Strait of Hormuz is a vital passage for oil shipments, influencing risk appetite among traders. The heightened military posture may lead to increased premiums on oil-related assets and could affect regional equities, particularly those tied to energy sectors. Traders will be closely watching for any immediate military responses or further statements from Iranian authorities, as well as upcoming oil inventory data releases that could reflect changes in supply dynamics.

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.
