It's hard to complain about something that's free, but I'll try my best, lol... Seriously though; I used Forex Factory for over a year before I realized that they were missing (not posting) some of the ecnomic releases. That cost me more than I would like to admit. Since then, I've been using the DailyFX and Bloomberg calendars.

Bottom line: It doesn't matter which calendar you use, always double check with a second source. It's not worth the risk and even seasoned traders can lose track of which day it is. The DailyFX + Bloomberg combo has worked nicely for over 3 years now....
