Forex Economic Calendar

What an economic calendar is

An economic calendar lists the macroeconomic releases and events scheduled for the days ahead — inflation and growth figures, central-bank decisions, employment data — together with the market's consensus forecast and the previous reading. Currency prices react to the gap between expectation and outcome: a release that lands far from consensus can move the affected currency within seconds, while a figure exactly in line often passes quietly.

Impact ratings

• High — releases that regularly move the affected currency: CPI inflation, central-bank rate decisions, US Non-Farm Payrolls, GDP. Around these, price can jump straight through support, resistance and stop levels — gap risk.
• Medium — data that moves the market when it surprises: confidence surveys, secondary inflation gauges, housing figures.
• Low — routine statistics that rarely move prices on their own. They are hidden by default here to keep the schedule readable.

Times and coverage

All times are shown in UTC, with your local time underneath each entry. The calendar covers the current week (Sunday to Saturday) for the 8 major currencies plus CNY — Chinese data is a frequent mover of AUD and NZD — and global events marked for all markets, such as central-bank symposiums. The schedule is refreshed once a day on trading days; released values are deliberately not tracked here.

How ForexSentiment uses this calendar

Since August 2026 the same calendar feeds the prompt of our AI Daily Forecast: a high-impact release on either currency of a pair is weighed as gap risk when the model writes each day's trade plans, and the events it considered are recorded with every forecast. A calendar bounds what is scheduled, not what can happen — an empty day is never a promise of a quiet session. Pair it with our volatility analysis to see how wide each pair's typical range currently is, and with the trading signals for the technical picture on all 29 markets.
