Frequently Asked Questions

What time does the data refresh?

  • The Forex Factory and FxStreet endpoints refresh at 19:01 EST (02:01 GMT+3) and 00:00 EST (07:00 GMT+3)
  • The MQL5 endpoints refresh at 16:30 EST (23:30 GMT+3) and 17:35 EST (00:35 GMT+3)
  • All endpoints also refresh whenever a pre-processed news event occurs

How many events are fetched at a time?

  • For the Forex Factory and FxStreet endpoints, event data from 17:00 EST Sunday to 23:59 EST Friday of the current week.
  • For the MQL5 endpoints, the data is synced as an event occurs and looks up to 7 days in advance for another instance of the same event

Sometimes the calendar/week endpoint doesn't return a full week of data. Why is that?

That event data only returns news events for the current week, which is from 17:00 EST Sunday to 23:59 EST Friday.

What timezone is the event data in by default?

GMT+3
