    Discuss is for general discussions of a financial company or issues related to companies.

    Info is for things like "Has anyone heard of Company X?" or "Is Company X legit or not?"

    Compare is for things like "Which of these 2 (or more) companies is best?"

    Searching is for things like "Help me pick a broker" or "What's the best VPS out there for trading?"

    Problem is for reporting an issue with a company. Please don't just scream "CompanyX is a scam!" It is much more useful to say "I can't withdraw my money from Company X" or "Company Y is not honoring their refund guarantee" in the subject line.
    Keep Problem discussions civil and lay out the facts of your case. Your goal should be to get your problem resolved or reported to the regulators, not to see how many insults you can put into the thread.

    More info coming soon.

Help the FPA - Evaluate Calendars and Widgets

I usually use the calendar on Forex Factory. If you want to improve on that one, I'd like to see it have a quick and simple summary of events like fed chair speaks.

Their calendar gives the expectation and actual for events like NFP or crude inventories but you have to read the file to see what speeches contain. Having an expectation of hawk vs dovish or similar and then the actual results would help when looking for info quickly.

Also, if you included info similar to the FNG it would also add a quick reference point.
An example would be for each event on the calendar add a column with the most affected pair and the expected move (up/down) based on the projected results and then the expectation after the results are released.

Great Idea
 
Reuters and Bloomberg have the fastest Economic data releases, but they are not free/cheap, so maybe somehow through partnership negotiations they will accept !?
 
Unsure if its good but...ICEFX offer its news indicator for free:
darkmoonfx.com/newsinfo
including an API.
