What does the economic calendar show?
How to read the economic calendar?
The “forecast” value can be expressed as a percentage or as a currency value and it shows how the event will impact the market. “Actual” value is the value of the event at the time of reading and the “prior” value is the value it was before the “actual” one.
Additionally, in the economic calendar, you can filter events by country.
Why is the economic calendar important?
Since some events can show the upcoming volatility, following the economic calendar, traders can prepare for it.
The economic calendar is especially important for day traders and we recommend them to keep track of it frequently.
