How to use an economic calendar

Markets move on the difference between a release and what was expected. A number that matches the forecast often changes little; a large surprise can move prices sharply. The calendar lists the forecast and previous value so you can judge how large a surprise would be.

Prices can be volatile and spreads wider around major releases, particularly the Fed decision, US CPI and payrolls. Check the live gold price, oil prices and the markets and ratios page alongside the calendar, and read the guide to what moves gold.
