I'm trying to understand the FTMO trading platform and its rules. Specifically, I've heard about the '2 min rule' but I'm not sure what it means or how it applies to my trading activities within FTMO.

    The FTMO Challenge & Verification offers flexibility in its trading rules.

    Specifically, traders can ignore the regulation that prohibits trading within two minutes before and after certain releases.

    This exemption is designed to enhance the user experience during the evaluation process.

    FTMO does not enforce this rule to reduce the difficulty of passing the challenge.

    It is a strategic decision to create a more lenient environment for traders.
