This dashboard displaying current news from ForexFactory.com (calendar FFC) and from the Investing.com website. You can sort news by impact and by country, and display them on the chart with one click. By holding down the 'Ctrl' key, you can select several different 'currencies' or 'impacts' to sort. Also, this utility shows not only the forecast, but also the actual values after they appear on the site. You can set a separate notification for each news.
You can read the news using your EA or indicator. For more details, see the description in the comments.
The EA can close market positions and pending orders before news, move stop loss to breakeven and close positions at the end of the day.
Also in the Comments you can find a Script that can read the news from the Dashboard and stop the trading of all EAs by clicking on the AutoTrading button.
This program takes information from the internet, so you need to enable access to the ForexFactory and Investing.com sites in your terminal settings.
Press "ctrl+O", "Expert Advisors", "Allow WebRequest", and copy the links to the list (see last screenshot, spaces should be removed, they were added because links cannot be posted here):

ForexFactory uses CloudFlare protection, and blocks some IP-address and VPS.
Therefore, before buying, I recommend that you check out the test version, to see if it works for you, which is in the Comments.
