Description

This project provides an in-depth analysis of events listed on the Forex Factory calendar, serving as a comprehensive resource for traders. We employed Python for data extraction, successfully navigating through Cloudflare to scrape essential data. The collected information encompasses a variety of global events, offering a rich dataset for analysis and interpretation. Utilizing advanced technologies and methods, including pandas and Selenium, we ensured the accuracy and completeness of the extracted data.

The centerpiece of this initiative is an interactive Tableau dashboard that visualizes the data, offering insights from multiple angles. Traders can explore the number of events per currency, assess the impact types of events, and observe their distribution over time. The use of Tableau, complemented by design elements from Figma, allows for an intuitive and user-friendly interface. This visual tool is instrumental in enabling traders to anticipate upcoming events and formulate informed trading decisions.

The combination of programming, data analytics, and financial knowledge underscores the project’s contribution to the trading industry. Technologies like Python were pivotal for data collection and manipulation, while Tableau facilitated an engaging visualization of complex financial data. The accessibility of the complete dataset and Python code via GitHub ensures transparency and offers opportunities for further exploration and analysis. In essence, this project highlights the critical role of data visualization in simplifying complex financial datasets, paving the way for enhanced and effective trading strategies.
