Economic Calendar

📋Monitoring Tools
📌

Economic Calendar

The Economic Calendar shows upcoming and recent macroeconomic events that can affect financial markets — interest rate decisions, employment data, GDP reports, and more.

📋

Overview

The calendar aggregates data from ForexFactory feeds and displays events with their impact levels, forecasts, previous values, and actual results.

Events are organized by date and time, with clear impact indicators to help you focus on what matters most.

📌

Event Fields

Each event includes:

| Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | Date & Time | When the event is scheduled (in your local timezone) | | Country | Issuing country (US, EU, GB, JP, CA, AU, etc.) | | Impact | High / Medium / Low / Holiday | | Event Name | Description of the release (e.g., "Non-Farm Payrolls") | | Forecast | Market consensus expectation | | Previous | Last period's value | | Actual | Released value (appears after the event) |

📌

Impact Levels

| Level | Meaning | Example | |-------|---------|---------| | High | Major market mover, expect volatility | NFP, FOMC Rate Decision, CPI | | Medium | Moderate impact, sector-specific | PMI, Retail Sales, Housing | | Low | Minor impact, usually priced in | Trade Balance, Consumer Confidence | | Holiday | Market closed or reduced hours | Bank holidays, national holidays |

Tip: Focus on High-impact events for crypto and forex trading. These often cause significant price movements within minutes of release.

📌

Filtering & Search

You can filter the calendar by:

  • Date range — specific start and end dates
  • Country — focus on events from specific economies
  • Impact level — High, Medium, or Low
  • Language — view event names in English, Russian, or Ukrainian
📌

Reading the Calendar

Before the event:

  • Compare Forecast vs Previous to gauge expected direction
  • Higher-than-forecast results are typically bullish for that currency

After the event:

  • Actual value appears, color-coded against forecast
  • Better than expected = positive; worse = negative
  • The market reaction often happens within seconds
📌

Using Calendar Data in Trading

While the calendar doesn't directly connect to backtests, it's valuable for:

  • Avoiding backtests during news events — high-impact releases can cause abnormal volatility
  • Understanding market context — why certain periods show unusual price action
  • Planning live trading — know when to be cautious with active positions
❓
