Economic Events: FOMC, CPI, PPI, NFP, etc

7 Sep 2023

This script plots vertical lines on major U.S. economic events that can impact a trading day. Allowing you to decide if you want to trade on that day or to help with back testing (limited in how far back one can go).

The indicator preview chart doesn't show the vertical lines for whatever reason.
Here is a snapshot image.


This is completely different code from Economic Calendar Events: FOMC, CPI, and more by @jdehorty and uses different logic but provides similar features using the same public library for U.S. economic events.

Differences:

• Substantial Improved Performance.
• Legend setting to only show when there is an event today.
• Abbreviations for events.
  
• More Legend Settings (Position, Text Size, Color...)
  
• WARNING: Does NOT use the same 'built-in logic to retroactively adjust larger time intervals', so possible there could be differences but shouldn't be. No noticeable difference on USDJPY.
  
• Note: Was purposely made to not work on timeframes greater than one day.

Nota Keluaran

The Library "EconomicCalendar" by jdehorty seems to not being updated. The library provided the data events for this indicator.

Due to this, this Econ indicator will not be updated (unless situation changes) and this toodegrees Economic Calendar is suggested as an option.
