In this episode of BEM Academy, we explain how traders use the economic calendar to prepare for high-impact news and avoid being surprised by sudden volatility. You will learn the major events every trader should know, including NFP, CPI, FOMC decisions and central bank announcements, how to read forecast vs actual data, and the simple rule that helps decode almost every economic release. We also cover the two main approaches to news trading: trade the event or avoid it. One of them may fit your strategy, risk tolerance and experience level better than the other. By the end of this episode, you will understand how economic news, market expectations and surprise data releases can affect price movement across forex, indices, commodities and crypto markets.
