Strategy overview

News trading is the practice of positioning around scheduled macroeconomic releases — the moments when a single data print resets price faster than any chart pattern. What separates this entry from the usual treatment of the topic is where it comes from: Proyecto Algo is a Spanish-language channel focused on algorithmic trading, and the video's title itself — "CÓMO HACER TRADING CON NOTICIAS + BACKTESTING" — puts backtesting on equal footing with the news angle. That pairing is the point. News trading is one of the last corners of retail trading still argued about in purely discretionary terms, and the video's framing is that it should be treated as something you measure historically rather than something you feel your way through.

The walkthrough moves through four ideas in order: what actually qualifies as a high-impact release, how to read an economic calendar so you know when those windows open, how to approach the volatility that follows, and — closing the loop — how to manage the emotional side of trading into a scheduled event. The chapter markers cover that entire arc inside the first minute, so this is a compact orientation to the workflow rather than a step-by-step tutorial. The emotional-management section is worth flagging: it is an unusual chapter to include in a video that also promises backtesting, and it hints at the real difficulty of news trading, which is that the setup is calendar-driven and known in advance while the reaction is not.

We have not extracted a formal rule set from this video, so there is no mechanical entry-and-exit logic to publish here. What the source offers instead is the reasoning layer — the case for filtering by release impact, anchoring to the calendar, and validating the resulting behaviour against history before committing capital to it.

Frequently asked questions

What is news trading?

News trading means taking positions around scheduled economic releases — rate decisions, inflation prints, employment data — where the announcement itself is expected to move price sharply. The timing is known in advance from the economic calendar; the direction and magnitude of the reaction are not.

Why does this video pair news trading with backtesting?

Proyecto Algo is an algorithmic-trading channel, and the video's title puts backtesting alongside the news method. The implied argument is that because news events are scheduled and repeat, the behaviour around them can be examined across historical occurrences instead of judged one release at a time.

What counts as a high-impact news event?

Economic calendars label releases by expected market impact, with central bank rate decisions, inflation data and major employment reports typically carrying the highest rating. The video devotes an early section to identifying which releases qualify and how to read the calendar to find them.

Why does the video cover managing emotions?

Because a news release compresses a large price move into a short window, and knowing the exact minute it will happen tends to amplify hesitation and impulse rather than reduce them. The video closes on this, treating discipline into a scheduled event as part of the method rather than an afterthought.
