Why teams trust it
Official sources
Release values come from official publishers, central banks, and statistics offices.
Release timestamps
Announcement rows preserve UTC release timestamps for event studies, dashboards, research jobs, and live systems.
Decades of history
Point-in-time records show what was known at each date, so backtests do not borrow future information.
Product workbench
Move from release calendar to API, dashboard, and AI workflow.
FXMacroData is not just a list of endpoints. The same announcement-timestamped records connect human review, code, dashboards, and agent workflows.
Browse confirmed macro events by currency, local time, source, and release type before the data lands in a workflow.
REST API Pull the release recordUse production endpoints with consistent fields for value, announcement time, source context, pagination, and forecasts.
GET /v1/announcements/usd/inflation
{
"date": "2026-06-30",
"val": 2.7,
"announcement_datetime": 1784032200
}Review EUR/USD around macro events, then move into the same pair, release, and endpoint in code.
MCP and AI Give agents sourced macro contextLet AI tools call FXMacroData instead of relying on model memory, then return source-linked research payloads.
Product benefits
Turn every macro release into a tradable timestamp
Live reporting, point-in-time history, calendars, exports, MCP, and API access all resolve to the same release-aware record, so your live workflow and backtest speak the same language.
Official publisher values are normalized into the announcement record.
The market-visible time becomes the research boundary.
Models only see values that were public at that point.
announcement_datetime <= model_time
Official macro announcement records
Use central-bank and statistics-office release records with announcement timestamps for alerts, dashboards, and FX research systems.
Point-in-time historical data
Backtest against decades of records that preserve when each macro value was known to the market.

Short answers before you choose a plan
What is FXMacroData for?
Official macro announcement records and decades of point-in-time history for FX research, no-lookahead backtests, dashboards, and live systems.
How can my team use the data?
Use it through the API, Python, MCP, data export, dashboards, widgets, streaming feeds, and approved redistribution workflows. Open features.
Do you provide market consensus or forecast data?
Yes. Use /api/v1/predictions/{currency}/{indicator} for market consensus, survey, central-bank, IMF, and FXMacroData forecast rows joined to realised announcements.
How do I check if the data fits my backtest?
Use the coverage page to check each market and indicator's history depth, then join records by their known-at release timestamp for point-in-time backtests. Open data coverage.
