Trump to Decide on Military Action Against Iran Within 24 Hours

Reports indicate that US President Donald Trump may soon decide on military action against Iran, according to Israeli media sources. This potential escalation could influence risk appetite in global markets, particularly in the Middle East, where geopolitical tensions often lead to increased volatility. Israeli assets, including stocks and bonds, may experience heightened sensitivity to these developments due to their proximity to the conflict. Traders will be particularly focused on any official announcements or statements from the White House, which could serve as a catalyst for market movements in the coming hours.

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.
