Every forex calendar shows the same generic labels: High, Medium, Low. We measured 28,716 event-market reactions over 12 months and scored each currency+event combination individually.
The result: More than half of the classifications are wrong.
- CAD PMI: FF says "Medium" - actually Critical (67% above baseline)
- AUD CPI: FF says "High" - actually Low (only 9% above baseline)
- EUR PMI: FF says "High" - actually Low (only 32% above baseline, n=139)
56 data-driven corrections are now live on REVDEN. Each event now shows whether its classification is empirically validated, rule-based, or the Forex Factory original.
