Not sure what you mean by that. Other than to know when reports are due, I don't pay any attention to the news. It is not necessary to trade springs. I would never know what the news means to the market anyway.
That the success or non-success of the trade may have to do with news. Whether one pays any attention to the news or is even aware of it is immaterial.

One of the more common errors made when backtesting, either manually or by computer, is not to include events. Doing so can result in unpleasant surprises when trading setups in RT.
