Trump Claims Iran Deal Nearly Finalized, Impacts Ahead

Former President Donald Trump stated that an agreement with Iran has been largely negotiated, suggesting potential shifts in U.S. foreign policy towards Tehran. This development may influence risk appetite in global markets, particularly in relation to energy prices and geopolitical stability in the Middle East. Oil markets could be most exposed, as any easing of tensions might lead to increased Iranian oil supply, impacting global crude prices. Traders will be particularly attentive to upcoming statements from the Biden administration regarding their stance on the negotiations and any potential sanctions adjustments.

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.
