The releases that move forex and gold, taken only from the agencies' and central banks' own published schedules, shown in your time and one more zone of your choice.

Official schedules only (BLS, BEA, EIA, US Treasury, central banks). Checked 2026-11-11. Times are in your zone (). Education only; not investment advice.

Runs in your browser; nothing you type is sent anywhere. For learning and planning only, not financial advice. Check your broker's contract specification before trading.

Where the dates come from

Every row comes from the publisher's own schedule: the Bureau of Labor Statistics for jobs, CPI, PPI and JOLTS, the Bureau of Economic Analysis for GDP, PCE prices and trade, the Energy Information Administration for weekly oil stocks, the US Treasury for its quarterly refunding, and each central bank's own meeting calendar, the State Bank of Pakistan and the Reserve Bank of India included. The last column links to the page we took the date from. We show no forecasts and no "actual" figures: only when each release is due.

Times in your zone

Agencies publish in their own local time, for example 8:30 a.m. in Washington. We convert that with the time-zone rules of each city, so daylight-saving changes in the US and Europe are handled, and your browser shows the result in your own zone. The second time in each row follows the zone you pick: UTC, Pakistan (PKT), India (IST), West Africa (WAT), South Africa (SAST) or the Gulf (GST). Some banks, such as the Bank of Japan, RBI and SBP, set no fixed hour; those rows show the day only.

How to use it in trading

High-impact releases, such as US jobs, CPI and rate decisions, can move gold and the major pairs by more in a minute than in the hour before. Spreads widen and stops can slip around them. Many traders check this page each morning, avoid opening new trades just before a high-impact time and wait for the first move to settle. The impact labels are our own rough guide to how much a release usually matters, not a prediction.
