Impact levels

Each release carries an expected market impact. Size positions and stops accordingly around higher tiers.

High impact

Central bank decisions, CPI, payrolls. Expect sharp moves and wider spreads around the print.

Medium impact

PMIs, GDP revisions, retail sales. Meaningful for direction, usually a measured reaction.

Low impact

Second-tier data and surveys. Useful context, limited standalone impact on price.

Data and timezone

  • All times are shown in GMT+0 (server time). Convert to your local time before placing orders — your trading platform uses its own server clock.
  • Figures are compiled from official statistical agencies and central banks. This sample set is illustrative reference data, not a live feed, and may be revised after publication.
  • Forecasts are market consensus estimates. Actual results can diverge materially and trigger rapid repricing.
Risk warning. Trading forex and CFDs on margin carries a high level of risk and can result in the loss of all invested capital. Leverage up to 1:2000 amplifies both gains and losses. Liquidity often thins around scheduled releases, which can widen spreads, cause slippage and gap prices through stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels. The economic calendar is provided for information only and is not investment advice, a forecast, or a recommendation to trade. Consider whether you understand how these products work and whether you can afford to take the risk of losing your money.
