Fundamental Calendar Indicators

Trading Discussion News and Economy

I see that these economic calendar indicators are “the most” important.

  • Consumer Price Index
  • Consumer Confidence
  • Retail Sales
  • Pending Home Sales
  • Busines Confidence
  • Buing Approvals
  • GDP
  • Unemployment Rate
  • Unemployment Change
  • Employment Change
  • PMI Manufacturing
  • ISM Manufacturing
  • Trade Balance
  • Industrial Production
  • Trade Balance
  • PPI Input

How much do they affect the Forex Price movement?

Historically:
It could change the tendency from up trending to downtrend inner a day?
Or even in less time like 10 minutes…

Do you know any computational database (in txt format or another…) to get historic data to be read by a software?

All of these events surely affect currency rates (some of them more, some - less), but the most common reaction of pairs is either immediate swing higher/lower or gradual appreciation/depreciation during a day or couple.

I don’t think that CPI release alone can lead to the long-term trend reversal, but if it happens, it usually depends on a bunch of factors: such as monetary response to CPI data, comments of the officials etc.

As for DB - unfortunately, I haven’t seen anything like that.
