It is 8:29 AM ET on the first Friday of the month. Your algorithm is ready, but the market is frozen in a tight range. At 8:30 AM, the Non-Farm Payrolls number hits the wire, and within seconds, the E-mini S&P 500 gaps 20 points.

The economic calendar is not merely a schedule of dates; it is a mandatory risk-management framework that dictates when and how you deploy capital in futures markets.

Economic Calendar is a schedule of upcoming economic events, data releases, and announcements that can impact financial markets.
