When important financial news is released, usually the prices of financial commodities (stocks, bonds, currencies, etc.) start fluctuating more than they normally do. This increase in volatility makes it more difficult to day trade - since prices move more chaotically and stops are taken out more easily. For that reason, it is usually better to avoid taking a position right before or during an important news or economic release. What you should try to avoid is the urge to buy or sell based on your interpretation of the news. Just because you think a specific news or event is positive for the price of a stock or currency, it doesn't mean that the price will go up. If the news is significant, the price will go up or down - it doesn't matter which way it goes. You can react to whatever direction it decides to head in.
Day trading is not about PREDICTING where the price should go based on the news. Day trading is about REACTING to what the price eventually does. Traders that try to be smarter than the market by predicting eventually get eaten alive. Since nobody has a crystal ball, don't day trade based on news.
