Hey, guys, you are quite correct that with algorithmic trading we do not need to monitor the news daily. But I would suggest you keep an eye when there is very important news which reflects a lot the market. These are NFP, Interest rates changes, situations like Brexit. These might crucially affect your trading. Because they create volatile moves which might have positive but at the same time negative effect on your account. In these cases, it goes to 50/50, so I prefer to lower the volume at these moments.
