The Economic Calendar Playbook
This is your complete framework for every major US economic data release — what it measures, how it transmits through markets, and how to position around it.
The calendar is the heartbeat of macro trading. Every month, the same sequence of releases moves rates, currencies, equities, and commodities in a specific order. Most people watch the data. Very few understand the transmission mechanics — which asset class moves first, how one release confirms or contradicts another, and when the market has already priced in the number before it drops.
This playbook fills that gap.
What’s inside:
• Impact ratings for every major release
• What each data point really measures underneath the headline
• Market meaning — how hot vs. cool prints shift the macro narrative
• Tradeable playbooks with directional biases for rates, USD, and equities
• Transmission order — which instruments move first, second, and third
• Timing and scheduling for every release
• Watchlist bias for specific instruments and sectors
• The monthly calendar template for planning your positioning
• Cross-release confirmation logic — how releases chain together to build or break regimes
The framework is simple: Time leads to Event. Event leads to Regime. Regime leads to Trade Bias.
Download it. Keep it open on release days. It’s yours.
