Frequently Asked Questions

What data does the economic calendar API return?

Each event includes: title, date/time, currency, impact level (low/medium/high), forecast value, previous value, and actual value (when released). Filter by currency or impact.

Can I filter events by impact level?

Yes. Use the impact parameter: /v1/calendar?impact=high returns only high-impact events like NFP, FOMC, and ECB rate decisions.

Can I filter by currency?

Yes. Use the currencies parameter: /v1/calendar?currencies=USD returns only USD-related events. Combine with impact: ?currencies=EUR&impact=high.

How far ahead does the calendar go?

The calendar includes events for the current and upcoming week. Events are updated as forecasts and actual values become available.

Can I use this for news trading automation?

Yes. Poll the calendar to detect upcoming high-impact events, then use /v1/indicator to analyze pre-event positioning. See our news trading use case for a full architecture.
