Economic Calendar.
News drives the volatility your charts react to. CPI prints, NFP, central bank rate decisions, GDP and PMIs are the catalysts that turn a tidy range into the daily high or low. Knowing what's scheduled — and at what time — is the difference between getting caught in a spike and positioning for it. The live calendar below shows scheduled releases ranked by impact, the consensus forecast, and the prior result. Filter for the currencies you trade and the impact tier you care about.

Trading around news
- Filter by impact — only the red (high-impact) prints reliably move price. Yellow and orange add noise more often than direction.
- Watch the deviation — the bigger the gap between actual and forecast, the more violent the reaction.
- Wait for the retrace — initial spikes are usually faded by algorithms. The cleaner trade is the second move once the spread normalises.
- Set the calendar to your timezone — most defaults are GMT or US Eastern; align it to where you trade from.
The big six
