Economic Calendar

Today’s forex economic calendar with high-impact events that matter

Focus on the scheduled forex news events most likely to move USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CHF, CAD, AUD, and NZD pairs. This calendar is built to help traders spot volatility windows quickly without digging through lower-value releases.

Coverage is currently focused on medium- and high-impact forex calendar events tied to `USD`, `EUR`, `GBP`, `JPY`, `CHF`, `CAD`, `AUD`, and `NZD`, with the strongest emphasis on the releases most likely to move major pairs today and over the next week.

Release values appear as soon as our connected data sources confirm them. Some events may briefly remain in a source-confirmation state even after the scheduled release time.

How to use this forex economic calendar

Before the event

Check the event time, affected currencies, and whether the release is likely to change volatility conditions for the pairs you trade.

At release time

Watch the `actual`, `forecast`, and `previous` values together. The number alone matters less than how the market interprets the surprise.

After the release

Use the related news flow, market pulse, and your own plan to decide whether the move fits your setup or should be left alone.
