Traders may overlook the release of less significant news at first sight. Your indifference to calendar news events, however, may cause you to miss a significant reorganization of positions by the vast majority of forex market players.

Thus, monitoring economic calendar events becomes a crucial component of a trader’s trading strategy because of the erratic price response to news releases.

However, occasionally, for technical reasons, the news websites for following the Economic FXSSI Calendar Indicator could not be accessible. The human element also plays a role; if you’re preoccupied with business, you can neglect to review the news calendar prior to the next trading week.

We advise you to familiarize yourself with the Calendar indicator to determine whether it will be a beneficial addition to your trading strategy in order to prevent such circumstances and to always be aware of upcoming happenings in the currency market.

The indicator data is updated hourly by default. However, this time can be manually lowered to five minutes in the indicator settings if needed.

  • You can navigate between the recently released news and the upcoming economic events by using the forward and backward buttons beneath the table.
