The problem it solves

You need to remember major economic releases so you can plan around them, but checking a calendar site and adding events one by one is easy to forget and leaves clutter behind. Old events pile up if nobody cleans them out.

Who it fits

Traders and investors who track economic news releases for market timing.

How it works

  1. Every Sunday, the system fetches next week's economic calendar
  2. Each event is sorted into high, medium, or low impact
  3. High-impact events are added to Google Calendar with a reminder before release
  4. Medium-impact events are added without a reminder, and low-impact ones are skipped
  5. Past events are cleaned up automatically from the calendar
What you get

Market-moving events already on your calendar

The economic events that matter most to your trading week show up on your calendar automatically, with reminders.

What you get

An up-to-date Google Calendar of upcoming high- and medium-impact economic events, with old ones removed.

What you need

A Google Calendar account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
