Top 5 Forex News Website for Fundamental Analysis | Forex Factory Alternative - YouTube

Channel: Forex Monopoly

There are plenty of websites out there that help you stay up to date with the economic
[5]
news events everyday.
[7]
But are all websites worth trusting?
[11]
I don't think so.
[13]
I have been trading forex for 8 years now and trust me when I say this.
[18]
I have used every other news reading websites out there, and I have found a major problem
[25]
with most of the websites.
[27]
Many are not reliable.
[30]
Once I was trading on Gold and for me Fundamental Analysis plays an important role in it.
[37]
So, I usually set the impact of the news to high and neglect the medium and low impact
[45]
news.
[46]
As high impact news is what matters for me.
[50]
So I did the same on that website which I was using and I started trading.
[56]
As there was no news scheduled on USD that day, I started day trading care free and while
[64]
I was doing that the price skyrocketed impulsively as it does during an news event and I was
[72]
stock out by the price.
[74]
I was shocked to see such a price movement and I started finding the reason behind it.
[80]
So, I went to another website and found that there was high impact news scheduled on USD
[88]
which wasn't visible on the website I was using.
[92]
I was very upset with that and I feel you can not afford to do this in trading.
[99]
Our hard earned money is at stake and we shouldn't take it so lightly.
[104]
In trading, every single penny, every single trade matters and it needs to be valued and
[111]
certain websites like this can make you lose your money.
[116]
So, I researched all the major websites that provide you with economic calendars and laid
[122]
out 5 Top reliable websites for news reading.
[126]
Hey guys, welcome to Forex Monopoly, my name is Daksh and in this video, I'll tell you
[132]
about the "Top 5 Websites for Fundamental Analysis"
[135]
and at the end I'll tell you which one is my personal favorite.
[140]
So make sure you watch this video till the end.
[143]
At number 5, we have Daily FX.
[147]
Daily FX is a decent website for fundamental analysis and they also have a lot of tools
[156]
for forex trading, for the beginner traders.
[159]
They have two different types of calendars:
[161]
The regular economic calendar and the central bank calendar.
[166]
As the news events from the central bank meetings are the most important once, they decided
[172]
to create a separate section for such news and it does help a lot to keep track of those
[180]
news.
[181]
The economic calendar provided by Daily FX is nice and simple, easily customizable.
[188]
You can set the priority of the news, the currency pairs and also the types of news
[195]
as per your needs.
[197]
One of the things I like about the Daily FX is that you can directly add the news event
[203]
to your calendar and also set alerts which are really very very helpful.
[209]
They also have smart phone app for both IOS and Android which can be really very beneficial
[216]
for you when you don't have your laptop with you.
[221]
At number.
[222]
4, we have Myfxbook.
[225]
Myfxbook has become a go to website for all the new forex traders and it is due to the
[234]
variety of tools and educational things they offer.
[238]
Myfxbook offers you a community of like minded traders from whom you can copy trades and
[246]
also create and manage your own portfolio.
[249]
Due to this, a lot of traders started using the economic calendar from Myfxbook itself.
[256]
After all why go to different places when you have everything under one roof
[262]
and just like every economic calendar, you can customize the economic calendar on Myfxbook
[269]
as per your needs.
[270]
You can also set an alert on the website and you can also set the time when you wanna be
[275]
notified.
[276]
They also have an app for both IOS and Android and you can get alerts directly on your smart
[283]
phone via the the app.
[285]
The third one is Investing.com
[288]
An Investing.com is truly a heaven for investors and traders and provides an easy to use economic
[300]
calendar and lots of blog from some of the top trading experts.
[305]
Even here you have the same economic calendar as the first two provided and you can customize
[311]
and add alerts over here too.
[314]
Here, the news is more reliable than Myfxbook and Daily FX.
[320]
Just like the first two, Investing.com also has an app on the app store and play store.
[326]
The second one is FXSTREET.
[333]
There is a reason, a solid reason why I am keeping FXSTREET at number 2.
[339]
FXSTREET is leading source for all the reliable news and real time forex analysis.
[345]
FXSTREET offers real time exchange rates, charts and an economic calendar which is very
[352]
very simple and fast.
[355]
Being a forex dedicated website, it has a lot to offer for the traders and provides
[361]
easy and reliable economic date.
[364]
In the economic calendar section here you get three different types of option.
[368]
The first one is the normal economic calendar like every other website provides.
[374]
The next section is of interest rates where you get detailed interest rate related news
[380]
and content
[381]
and the third is of the market hours where you can see the timings of different types
[387]
of sessions.
[389]
By the way, I have added a video on different kind of sessions and which pairs you should
[394]
trade during each trading session.
[397]
So make sure you check it out by clicking the i button.
[401]
Now, on FXSTREET you can add the news to your personal calendar directly and can also set
[406]
a notification.
[408]
And it is also available on IOS and Android.
[413]
Now, let's take a look at what we have at number 1.
[418]
At number 1, we have Forexfactory.com
[426]
Forexfactory is my personal favorite website for reading economic calendar and the reason
[431]
for that is nothing but the reliability.
[435]
Yes.
[436]
The Forexfactory does not have features like it's other competitors have.
[442]
Here you cannot set alerts and you also do not have a different section for central bank
[448]
news.
[449]
But it is one of the most most reliable website for reading news as during a news release
[457]
Forexfactory first compares the news from 10 different sources and then shows it on
[463]
their website to make it very reliable.
[467]
Forexfactory has a very simple and user-friendly interface and news is quite easy to read.
[473]
They also provide top articles just below the economic calendar section and these articles
[479]
keep on hanging with every other news release and hence help you to be up to date with the
[486]
global news events.
[488]
Now.
[489]
unfortunately there are no app available for the Forexfactory and you have to use it on
[495]
an internet browser only.
[497]
Now, I have already added a video on how to read news using the Forexfactory calendar.
[503]
So make sure you check it out by clicking the i button.
