A new service has been launched on MQL5.com — the economic calendar tool is intended to provide useful information about macroeconomic events. It is considered a major fundamental market analysis tool developed by MetaQuotes Software on the bases of real-time data collected from public sources.
The current version features economic news from the US, Japan and the European
 Union. Regardless of the broker used, relevant 
information is delivered to traders without delays, allowing them to instantaneously react to market events. 
Soon, the new calendar will replace the current one used in MetaTrader 
5, so that users of the multi-asset platform will be able to receive 
up-to-date indicator values immediately after their release. Moreover, it 
will be possible to access the economic calendar from MQL5 robots and 
the strategy tester.

The
 MQL5.com economic calendar provides an online chronology, in which 
events are marked in accordance with their significance, while the most 
important ones are shown with a red label. With the economic 
calendar, you can keep track of key events and evaluate their effect on 
financial markets. Information about economic indicator releases can 
help users to formulate informed trading decisions and forecast future 
market developments. For example, knowing the release time of GDP or 
unemployment rate reports, you can prepare for increased volatility 
in the market to capture good trading opportunities.
With the 
MQL5.com 
economic calendar, you can always be up to date on global markets and 
well prepared for market movements. For convenience, you can filter 
events by 
importance, choose desired countries and time intervals. This essential 
economic information resource is updated automatically during 
announcements in 
real time. 
Open the economic calendar right now, and start monitoring important macroeconomic events to make more weighted trading decisions.
