Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant list upcoming high-impact economic events and check whether a prop firm's news-restriction window is currently active.

What it does
Provides an economic calendar covering FOMC, NFP, CPI, PPI, GDP, ISM, EIA, JOLTS and retail sales, each tagged with affected instruments and typical impact. Tools include get_upcoming_events for the next N days, get_high_impact_events for specific instruments this week with expected move sizes, check_trading_restriction for whether a prop firm's news-restriction window is active now or within the next N minutes, and calculate_news_risk_score, a 1-10 risk score with a plain recommendation.
When to use it
Useful for futures or prop-firm traders who want to avoid placing trades during news blackout windows, or who want a quick read on upcoming high-impact releases and the risk of trading right now.
Requirements
Runs as a hosted remote endpoint; the README also describes a self-hosted option via npm install and node server.js, which requires Node.js. No accounts, API keys, environment variables or headers are declared.
Before you install
The hosted option is described as having a free tier and a paid Pro tier for higher limits, so paid usage may apply. The server only reads calendar and restriction data; it does not place trades. Verify that its event data and firm restriction windows match your own prop firm's rules before relying on them.

README

econ-calendar-mcp

[License: MIT] [Live on MCPize]

An MCP server that tracks high-impact economic events (FOMC, NFP, CPI, PPI, GDP, ISM, EIA inventories, and more) and checks whether a prop firm's news-restriction window is active right now — the rule that gets an otherwise-good trade disqualified for being placed during a blackout window.

The problem this solves

Most prop firms restrict trading around high-impact news releases, but "high-impact" and the exact restriction window differ by event and by firm. Missing that a CPI print is 3 minutes away, or that FOMC restrictions still apply 10 minutes after the announcement, is a quiet way to void an otherwise-clean trading day.
