Get Economic calendar

[Ali D32]

Hi

I want to create EA to get news times.

I get history with:

CalendarValueHistory(newsHistory,startDate,endDate,NULL,"USD"))

and i get event info with:

CalendarEventById(newsHistory[0].event_id, event);

but event.name and time of news in history that i get is not match with calendar in forexfactory site: https://www.forexfactory.com/calendar

for example there is one news in 01.08 with importance of HIGH in history but there is not any high importance news in that date in forexfactory!

What it is wrong?

Nothing is wrong. These are simply two different calendars.

Actually, this is how a calendar publisher tries to distinguish them from other sources. You will find similar entries, like NFP, but also lots of different ones.
