Time. The default settings is in US New York time but you can change it your own timezone. Either sit on the sidelines at these times or use these to your advantage for big moves at these times.
Country / Pair.
Actual, Forecast and Previous. You need to refresh the page to get the latest updates on the actual readings. The actual values are color coded, green means better than expected data, red means worst than expected, and black indicators the actual results are in line with expectations. You will need to use your own judgment to determine the degree of the change from the forecast, and look at the severity by comparing this to the "importance" column.
Event. Click on the event to get a better understanding of the data, and how this is likely to impact the specific pair. We also provide you a historical chart, so that you can also get a sense of the historical performance and compare this with the forex price charts.
