I have tried trading news in the past via straddles and got my **s whipped - not a pleasant experience.
I've noticed that the price right after the news release,after traveling extensively in a direction often will reverse (whipsaw),this strategy basically entails catching the reversal from the sudden directional move.
This will only be profitable with sudden moves in one direction that are at least 50 pips due to the large spreads right after the news releases.
Has anyone tried this?
I will be forward testing this on a demo account.
Any feedback?
