What the Economic Calendar shows

The Economic Calendar helps you stay aware of scheduled market events that can increase volatility, such as interest rate decisions, employment data and inflation releases.

Where to find it

The calendar appears on your dashboard and gives you a quick view of upcoming events, their time, currency and expected impact level where available.

How to use it in your routine

  1. Check the calendar before your main trading sessions.
  2. Note high-impact events for markets you trade.
  3. Plan wider stops, reduced size or standing aside when risk is elevated.
  4. Record how major events affected your trades in your journal.
Event data depends on the connected calendar source. High, medium and low impact labels help you prioritise what matters most for your markets.
