FF Calendar

FF Calendar is a small, simple and free Economic calendar. FF Calendar retrieves information from the ForexFactory site.

Before attaching FF Calendar to the chart, it is necessary to add the https://www.forexfactory.com URL in Options -> Expert Advisors -> 'Allow WebRequest for listed URL', and also set the GTM time zone of your broker's terminal in the settings. News is displayed in a simple and intuitive way. The panel with the news display can be freely moved on the chart using the mouse. Its initial location at the start of the Calendar can be specified in the settings. Information is updated automatically.
