News filters: do you flatten before high-impact events?

A news filter is a strategy rule: no new positions X minutes before high-impact releases, or reduce size, or exit early. The filter converts unpredictable event risk into a knowable cost.

What's your filter?

• the events you filter around and the window
• whether you flatten or just avoid new entries
• how the filter changed your results

The economic calendar guide tells you which events deserve the filter.
