You're in a trade. You're also in a meeting, a lecture, or just away from your screen. USD CPI drops. Price dumps and your stop loss gets hit. You check your phone and see the damage, all because you lost track of when that news was scheduled. It's not a knowledge problem. It's a timing problem. NotifX watches the economic calendar so you don't have to. Set the currencies you trade, the impact levels you care about, and how far in advance you want the heads-up. Then put your phone down. You'll hear about it before the market moves. What you get: Custom alert timing: choose how early you want to be notified Filter by currency: only hear about the pairs you trade High, Medium, and Low impact filters: cut the noise No account needed: set up in minutes Works in the background: clean, fast, and out of your way Every upcoming economic event, with time, impact level, and live data, all in one place. Built for traders on the go who need the right information at the right time, not more noise.
