Thanks for your reply. I looked into the methods provided in mql5 for reading economic calendar events, I tried to use  CalendarValueLast() method but it is always giving 0, moreover there is no method for finding news by date so that I can download todays news..

I used same function yesterday and the result Values in any Events was positive. Today I used the same code and all the Events return me 0 Values ... I think it is possibly any problem with the provider calendar data server ...

I used CalendarEventByCurrency( ) first to get Events and CalendarValueHistoryByEvent( ) to get Values from that Events.

I'll try these days if that change again ...
