The indicator displays economic news on the chart (the appropriate data must be downloaded from the Internet using this utility). The list of currencies (countries) is customizable. By default it shows all currencies. News items are divided into 4 categories by degree of importance. Plenty of customizable display parameters are provided. The indicator has 4 buffers with offset for use in developments of experts as a news filter. The calendar needs to be loaded once, at the beginning of each week (or you can re-download data at any time if you want to update the information and see the values of released economic indicators). By default, the indicator displays current week data but you can independently set the initial date (in which case you will need to download data available in the Internet for all weeks starting from the selected date).
