Why Traders Use the BrokerSift Calendar
Smart Impact Filtering
High, Medium, Low, and Non-economic impact levels mapped to the currencies and instruments most likely to move. NFP → USD pairs and gold. ECB → EUR pairs and DAX. Stop wasting time on events that don't move what you trade.
Trading Session Overlay
Every event tagged with its session: Asian, London, New York, or the London/NY overlap. See instantly whether your event is firing during a high-volatility window or the quiet handover.
Live Countdowns
Every upcoming event has a live countdown to release. No refreshing tabs, no guessing how long until CPI hits the wire. Updates every second and turns red as release approaches.
Symbol Impact Mapping
Pick your portfolio — EURUSD, XAUUSD, DAX — and the calendar highlights only the events with historical impact on those instruments. Your screen stops feeling like a wall of noise.
Browser & In-Site Alerts
Grant permission once and the calendar fires a system notification minutes before any watchlist event. Tab in background, tab out of MetaTrader — the alert still reaches you.
Six Timezones, One Click
UTC, London, New York, Dubai, Tehran, Tokyo built in. Switch between them without reloading the page and without doing time math in your head.
