Gerchik & Co adds news trading to Prop Challenge program
International brokerage firm Gerchik & Co, founded by professional traders, has announced a major update to its Prop Trading Challenge program — participants can now engage in news trading as part of the challenge.
- Chosen by 3 200+ local traders in the last 3 months.
- Traders earn on average 12% more per month vs other brokers.
This new feature is tailored for traders looking to capitalize on the volatility triggered by economic events and financial news, according to the broker’s website. With the news trading option, traders will be able to open and close positions shortly before or immediately after key macroeconomic releases, taking advantage of the most dynamic market moments.
The news trading option is available as a paid add-on to any of the existing challenge tariffs. It costs an additional 10% of the base challenge price and must be activated before completing the challenge. This feature is aimed at Gerchik & Co traders who want to expand their strategy toolkit and take advantage of short-term market swings driven by global macroeconomic developments.
Key benefits of news trading
Gerchik & Co outlines several key benefits of enabling the news trading option:
Maximum volatility: Profit from sharp price movements during significant economic releases such as NFP, interest rate decisions, or inflation reports.
Quick profit opportunities: Catch fast, high-impact market moves that can help you meet your challenge goals more efficiently.
Strategic diversity: Add news-based strategies to your trading plan, increasing your adaptability to ever-changing market conditions.
Despite the potential advantages, the broker stresses that news trading comes with heightened risk. Traders are strongly advised to adhere strictly to risk management rules to protect their capital and increase their chances of accessing funding — up to $200,000 in funded capital is available to those who successfully pass the challenge.
This update highlights Gerchik & Co’s ongoing commitment to flexibility, innovation, and trader empowerment, providing clients with new tools to profit from economic volatility in a structured, funded environment.
As a reminder, Gerchik & Co recently expanded its offering on the MetaTrader 5 platform by adding 345 new CFDs on U.S. stocks.
