I am also looking for this information.Options.

I am also looking for this information.

[VuxxesrroesS]

It seems that I am not the only one interested in this topic.I am surprised that it is so complicated to find reliable economic data suppliers.I'm going to investigate a little more.If I find something, I will share it here.Meanwhile, I would appreciate any recommendation that someone has.

[JJTSes]

Why don't you test with sites such as Investing.com or Forexfactory?Both have quite detailed and free economic calendars.I don't know if they allow access to your API, but maybe you could write to ask if they sell their data.

I do not understand why you need to buy the data when there are so many free sources on the Internet.It seems a loss of money.Just download the information you need manually and voila.Do not complicate things unnecessarily.

[VuxxesrroesS]

I understand your point, but I need the data in a structured and automatically updated format for my application.Doing it manually is not a viable option because I want it to be efficient and scalable.Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Have you reviewed the premium services of Trainingeconomics or Economy?I think they offer access to their economic data.They are probably not cheap, but if you are building something serious, it could be worth the investment.

Why don't you use Google Sheets and a simple script to extract data from some public website?It is cheaper and, if you know a little programming, you could adapt it to your needs.

[VuxxesrroesS]

That sounds interesting.I have never used Google Sheets for something like that, but I could investigate it.If you have an example or resource on how to do it, it would be great that you shared it.Thanks for the idea.

The problem of using free services or scripts to extract data is that they are often not 100% updated or precise.If your application depends on reliable information, you probably need to pay for a serious provider.In this case, you would recommend Thomson Reuters or Bloomberg, although they are not cheap.

I don't know if this is the best place to ask about technical things such as APIS and structured data.Maybe you should try more programming oriented forums.In any case, good luck with your application.It sounds like an interesting project.

[VuxxesrroesS]

You are right, maybe I should look for developer forums.But I thought here I could find someone who has already gone through this in a trading context.I appreciate your advice.If you know about any technical forum where I can ask, let me know.

[AxNesSdesunNunutes]

Honestly, I don't understand why forums do not offer this information directly.It seems a logical step, since many traders depend on that data.I hope you find what you are looking for.If you manage to get access to a good source, please share it with the community.

For those looking for free and real -time data, perhaps Yahoo Finance can be useful.It is not specific for economic calendars, but it has a lot of relevant information.If you need something more structured, you will probably have to pay.This is how this business works.

[VuxxesrroesS]

Thanks for the suggestion of Yahoo Finance.I will review it to see if you have something that can adapt to my application.It seems that most free options have limitations, but it could be a good starting point.

[Bttstt30]

The truth is that I do not understand why so much fuss.If you are building a serious application, why don't you invest in a reliable data provider from the beginning?There are times when "free" is simply not enough, especially in something as important as economic data.

[xesnraza]

If you want something reliable, try quandl.It has many data sets, including some related to economic calendars.Some are free, but the most advanced are paid.It is worth taking a look.

[VuxxesrroesS]

I have heard from Quandl before, but I have never explored it in detail.Thank you to mention it, I will check it to see if you have what I need.It seems that several options that have suggested me are more accessible than I thought.I will keep you informed.

[vudesS0014]

What if you simply send an email to the technical support of the forum?Maybe they can give you more information about how they get their economic data.Sometimes, the simplest solution is simply to ask directly.

[Axstor]

Most serious economic data services are not cheap because they require real -time updates.It is a very competitive market.If you are not willing to pay, you might rethink your approach or simplify your application so that it does not depend on such specific data.

[VuxxesrroesS]

I understand your point.I am willing to pay for reliable data, but I want to make sure to choose a supplier that offers what I really need.That's why I'm here looking for recommendations.The experience of others can save me a lot of time and money.

[jiesnaxTossa]

Has anyone tried Alpha Vantage?They offer financial data and have a free API.It may not be perfect for economic calendars, but it could be useful.It is always good to explore several options before committing to a supplier.

[Nickung]

My experience with this type of project is that in the end you end up paying for the data, either in time or money.There is no way to avoid it.The question is, how much are you willing to invest to make your application functional and reliable?Because that will determine what options are viable for you.

[VuxxesrroesS]

That is an excellent observation.I guess I should start by defining a clear budget for this aspect of the project.Thanks for reminding me.Sometimes, with so much focus on technical details, one forgets practical issues.

[TSeskesTSeskes12]

If you only need historical data and not in real time, many free sources can be enough.But if you want live updates, I warn you that this generally implies a significant cost.Prepare for it.

[axckSoCa]

I use a free APIS combination and databases paid for my projects.It is the best way to keep the costs low while I get reliable data.You may consider a similar approach: use the free for the basics and pay only for the essential.

[VuxxesrroesS]

I like that idea.Combining free resources and payments could be an intelligent way to maximize my budget.I will investigate more about what data I can get for free and which ones really justify an investment.

[axjincua]

Have you tried any university or financial institution?Sometimes they have databases that share with researchers or students.You may have to justify your use, but it could be an interesting option if your project has an educational or academic purpose.
