Hello,

Thank you for your suggestion.

Unfortunately we do not provide economics calendar events with our charts at the moment.

This is something we are hoping to add to the platform this year.

We regularly add features to ProRealTime based on ideas suggested by our users.

Kind regards

Victor from ProRealTime

Yes, it’s normal text.

You have to make and indicator that draws text on your chart at the desired date and time.

It’s just a matter of adding events as they are planned and never remove them.
```
If Date = 20100210 and time = 143000 then
   DRAWTEXT("EU xxx yyy", barindex, high + 10 * pipsize) COLOURED(0,128,0)
Endif
Return
```
You need to add all those events that are of your interest.

If you have more events on the same date and time you will have to displace them using different pip distance among them.

Be warned that events that do not occur when a candle closes will not be displayed correctly.

I don’t think the outcome is very beautiful and readable.

Waiting for PRT to support them is way much better.

Thanks. The charts on the “Investing.com” website could serve as an example

Hello, I’ve been looking for this feature where I can add economic events date and time on the chart to remind me easily.

I see this question was asked in 2020.Do we have the feature now? If so how can I access it please?
