Alternative To Forex Factory?
March 16, 2007 by Trader Rich
I saw that there is another player in the world of economic release calendars. I was thinking about developing a competitor to Forex Factory last year but came to the conclusion that it would just take too much development work and up keep. I guess it could have been fully automated, pulling release projections and the actual release numbers but it's just another one of those things I couldn't follow through on. Fxfisherman has an economic calendar that emulates the Forex Factory functionality which include actual, forecast, and previous economic release numbers and expected volatility. They take it a step further by also including a predictor with preferred currency pair to trade after the release, the predicted direction, and possible range in pips. Only time will tell if this is a useful tool but since I don't trade the news, I probably won't be able to tell you. I've added the site to my "Massive List of Forex Resources" page but you can browse directly to it at http://www.fxfisherman.com/forex/economic-calendar/.
