So does anybody know where you can find the data thats going to be released? Especially when it is really important. ie first hand in real time not through some place like f.f. Ive just had problems where i cant see the numbers being released and miss getting in on trading the news!!!!!

What do you mean going to be released?

If is is not out yet there is no data., only estimates.

Look into Reuters, Bloomberg, Trade The News or Need to Know News.

(I have used none of them)

Sorry, im looking for a place that reports the news the moment it is released, i think thats sounds better. I usually look at the commentary section on FOREX.com there usually pretty quick to post the results. However i want to see it first hand by the people reporting it!

for example will that give you the international trade balance number that is due out today at 830est. At exactly 830am. or will it just report it when they get around to it like 5 min later?

If you google Reuters, Bloomberg, Trade The News or Need to Know News, you will learn that news are reported seconds after they are released.

i know the news is reported i just want to be able to see them. My trouble right now is that im unable to see the data as its reported, Like a runner at the starting line getting ready to take off as soon as the gun is shot!!! But ive checked out bloombergs webcite and it seems that ill have to refresh the page, i havent checked out reuters yet but im going to do that one next!

I think TTN and NTKN have a voice service - you don t see the news, but you hear them.

do you know if it will be on tv like cnn, cspan etc that might scroll it across the screen or even report it as it comes out?
