First check Blueberry’s current news policy many funded programs restrict or penalize holding through red-folder news. If they allow it, treat the window as extremely hostile. I stay out 10 minutes before and after high-impact releases. The slippage you described is normal when liquidity vanishes market orders are asking for trouble. If I absolutely must engage I switch to a pending limit order placed well outside the pre news range with a stop loss double my usual width to absorb the wick. Position size drops to 0.25–0.5% risk so even a worst case slip doesn’t trip the daily loss limit. Execution delays are often platform-side a VPS close to the broker’s server and a clean indicator-light chart help. Finally, recognize that Blueberry’s spread widening can trigger stops on shadows that don’t print on your end. The safest edge Mark the calendar stay flat and protect the account. Consistency not a single news gamble passes challenges.
