New Free Forex Economic Calendar
Forex Factory have just released an economic calendar that is similar to my favored DailyFX economic calendar.
With DailyFX’s calendar they highlight announcements that are likely to be market movers, but with Forex Factory they grade economic announcements as either having a small, medium or high impact on the markets.
Forex Factory also provides a small snippet of information on each announcement so that you can better understand what the economic release is all about AND they allow you to select your time zone so that you know when the economic announement is going to be released according to YOUR time zone – how neat is that?
I’d have to say that I’m pretty impressed with this economic calendar, and due to the fact that it provides more detailed info than DailyFX I think it takes my number 1 spot for the best free economic calendar available on the internet.
Check it by going to: Forex Factory’s Economic Calendar now.

I usually use this economic calendar by understandmarket.com. It is free and compatible with my Opera browser.

Thanks Magister for the link.
I prefer Forex Factory’s economic calendar as they grade announcements depending on their potential volatility as well as provide history – something understandmarket.com seem to lack.
But… each to his own.
All the best,

I would have to agree with Administrater. The Forex Factory calendar is a good one as it is part of their expansive community that includes broker reivews, a calendar and opinions on the news as well!
Trade onward!
