LONDON, July 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
Whatever your spread betting strategy, it is vital that you can foresee forthcoming financial events that may affect your trading. If you do not know when a company reports on its profits, or the house price index will be released, how can you predict what will happen to your markets? To keep traders aware of announcements and events, spread betting provider City Index (http://www.cityindex.co.uk/) publishes an economic calendar every Friday with the next fortnight's noteworthy dates.
The economic calendar is an ideal tool with which to support your market analysis. For example, if you had been researching the Dow Jones and believed it was set to rise, you might check the economic calendar just to confirm whether or not there is data coming out from the US which may have an impact.
The content available in the City Index economic calendar is provided by Econoday Inc and offers global coverage of the latest economic events and indicators. See the latest edition at:

Spread betting and CFD trading are leveraged products which can result in losses greater than your initial deposit. Ensure you fully understand the risks.
