ISRAEL BELIEVES A DEAL WITH IRAN IS UNLIKELY AND HAS TOLD THE U.S. THAT ANY RETURN TO WAR MUST INCLUDE STRIKES ON IRAN’S ENTIRE ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE WITHIN 24 HOURS, ACCORDING TO CHANNEL 12.

Israel's assertion that a deal with Iran is unlikely and its demand for immediate strikes on Iran's energy infrastructure in the event of renewed conflict heightens geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. This situation could influence risk appetite among investors, leading to increased volatility in energy markets due to potential supply disruptions. Crude oil prices are particularly exposed, as any military action could threaten Iran's oil exports and impact global supply chains. Traders will be closely watching for any developments in U.S.-Iran relations and potential military actions, especially following upcoming diplomatic meetings or statements from key stakeholders.

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.
