Award-Winning Broker Eightcap Launches New AI-powered Economic Calendar

Eightcap, a leading global FX and CFD provider, founded in Melbourne, Australia is excited to announce its latest integration with Acuity to provide an AI-powered economic calendar. The advanced calendar will provide clients with daily trade ideas based on over 1000 macroeconomic events, that are categorised in order of impact to the market, allowing traders to manage event-based market volatility more effectively.

The calendar offers a range of features that set it apart from traditional economic calendars, including presenting valuable insights into why an economic event is affecting the market, how the market is likely to react, the size of the market reaction, and the speed of the impact. Traders will also be able to gain valuable insights into the historic market performance of each macroeconomic event.

Alex Howard, CEO of Eightcap commented on the launch of the economic calendar, “By incorporating Acuity’s cutting-edge AI technology into our platform, we are able to offer our clients a powerful new tool that will help them stay ahead of the markets.” He added, “We are committed to providing an extensive range of tools and educational resources that will enhance our clients’ trading experience and allow them to trade smarter.”

The partnership with Acuity is a natural fit for Eightcap, as both companies are committed to providing traders with tools and products to help them trade smarter. Clients will be able to quickly highlight trading ideas using AI advanced filtering, allowing them to identify trading opportunities across 100+ countries and 1000+ macroeconomic events.

AI filtering uses strong, colourful elements for the benefit of the trader in order to show high, medium and low-impact events. Additionally, traders will be able to understand potential market movement before, during, and after events with price, sentiment, and potential range charts.

“We are excited to be working with Eightcap, a leading online broker in the industry,” said Andrew Lane, CEO of Acuity Trading. “Our partnership will allow us to reach a wider audience and provide more traders with access to our powerful AI-based tools.”

The new economic calendar will be available to all Eightcap clients and can be accessed directly via the Eightcap client portal. Traders will also be able to run the economic calendar as an EA tab on the MT4 or MT5 research terminal, which will then provide access to the news, sentiment data and more features within the same window.
