Before you even start thinking about trading the news please consider what kind of platform should you use. Any retail broker out there will restrict your access to news trading because when they are not able to quickly find the other side of the trade, which is difficult during a macroeconomic report, they will have to take the trade yourselves as a market maker, so your win is their loss. The only good way to trade the news events is to get access to institutional grade trading platforms like Hotspot FXi, LAVAFX, Currenex all working as a ECN. This means you should have a prime broker relationship with an investment bank or company which will act as a prime broker. The minimum account starts usually around 250,000 USD with them and they are offering very very low leverage - your margin requirement is within the 3-5% range. Even with a good platform it is not a piece of cake...
