Skill: Economic Calendar

When to use

  • The user wants the economic calendar for today, this week, or a custom date range.
  • The user asks for upcoming macro events, scheduled releases, or high/medium/low impact events.
  • The user wants a forward-looking list of calendar items before trading.

When NOT to use

  • The user wants broad market news and sentiment only -> use market-news-brief
  • The user wants a stock price or company-specific quote -> use stock-price-checker-pro
  • The user wants company fundamentals -> use stock-fundamentals

Authentication

  • Preferred: set TRADING_ECONOMICS_API_KEY to your TradingEconomics credential string
  • Supported value format: client:secret
  • Optional: copy .env.example to .env at the repo root and fill in TRADING_ECONOMICS_API_KEY
  • Fallback: if no API key is present, the script uses Yahoo Finance's economic calendar endpoint
  • Important: Yahoo fallback can omit importance and market-expectation fields, and country values are returned as short codes like US, EU, or JP

Commands

Get the default calendar window

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/economic-calendar-pro/src/main.py

Defaults to 7 days inclusive from the query day.

Get a custom calendar window

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/economic-calendar-pro/src/main.py <START_DATE> <END_DATE>

Dates must use YYYY-MM-DD.

Examples

# Default window: query day plus the next 6 days
uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/economic-calendar-pro/src/main.py

# Start from a specific day and use 7 days inclusive
uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/economic-calendar-pro/src/main.py 2026-03-10

# Explicit date range
uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/economic-calendar-pro/src/main.py 2026-03-10 2026-03-24

Output

The command returns: - Requested date range - Auth source used (TradingEconomics API or Yahoo Finance fallback) - Total event count and covered day count - Events grouped by day - For each event: UTC time, country, event name, and available actual / forecast / previous values

Notes

  • The script reads TRADING_ECONOMICS_API_KEY from the environment first.
  • If no env var is set, it also checks a repo-root .env file before falling back to Yahoo Finance.
  • Yahoo fallback is better than guest TradingEconomics for current/future windows, but it does not expose the same richness of metadata.
  • Do NOT use the economic-calendar-pro.sh wrapper in normal skill execution - call uv run src/main.py directly as shown above.
  • Do NOT use web search for this workflow - use the script so the output is date-filtered and formatted consistently.
