Trading CFDs involves significant risks.
Stay informed and plan with confidence using our FX economic calendar, designed to help traders follow key financial updates that move the market. By tracking major releases, you can make smarter decisions in forex trading, manage risk, and choose better moments to trade based on upcoming events.
An economic calendar is a practical tool that helps traders track scheduled announcements that may affect price movement. It shows key dates and times for updates that can influence sentiment across the forex market and beyond.
By following major economic events and releases, traders can prepare for volatility and understand why prices shift in global financial markets, especially during high-impact news like interest rate decisions, GDP or employment reports.
Discover below how powerful this tool is:
An economic calendar shows scheduled announcements that may influence market prices. It lists the date, time, country, and expected impact of each release, giving traders a clear view of what’s ahead and what the economic calendar covers.
The economic calendar is automatically updated on the trading platform, providing real-time access to figures as soon as they are published. Traders can also compare results with forecasts and previous historical data and take a more strategic approach to timing and risk management.
Using an economic calendar like ours helps spot a potential trend before and after major news.
To use the economic calendar effectively, start by checking the tabs such as Today, Tomorrow, or This Week. You will see there that our comprehensive calendar covers important events, which will help you anticipate potential price swings and plan around news that could affect major currency pairs. Each entry shows the time, country, and expected volatility level. Traders can focus on releases that may move the market, especially before placing a trade.
Use the filter option to customise results based on your preference. You can narrow down the data and the wide range of releases by country, volatility, or event type. This makes it easier to follow only the most important events relevant to your trading strategy.
Reading the calendar is simple: each row lists an event, its period, previous result, consensus forecast, and actual figure once released. Comparing these values can offer the most accurate insight for your analysis.
For example, if the actual number differs sharply from expectations, the news may have a stronger impact on related currencies, helping traders understand sudden market movements.
