Earnings Calendar

The Earnings Calendar on AlgoTest is a live, auto-updating view of upcoming financial results for NSE-listed companies. It shows earnings announcements from the NSE every hour and displays key information such as:

  • Stock name and symbol
  • Quarter of result (e.g., 2025–26 Q1)
  • Earnings announcement date
  • Current price and % change
  • Last updated time

You can also filter to view only F&O (optionable) stocks and toggle between upcoming and historical earnings data.

How Useful It Is​

Earnings releases are high-volatility events, they often lead to large price movements in the underlying stock or its options. The Earnings Calendar helps traders:

  • Prepare in advance for earnings-related volatility
  • Build or avoid positions around earnings
  • Discover trades like straddles, strangles, or directional bets based on earnings expectations

With real-time tracking and tagging of new/updated/deleted entries, this tool keeps you updated on any earnings-related changes as they happen.

The Earnings Calendar is deeply integrated with the Strategy Builder. For each upcoming earnings:

  • You’ll see a “Trade” button next to that stock.
  • Clicking it takes you directly to the Strategy Builder, pre-filled with:
    • That stock
    • The relevant expiry
    • Ideal setup timing based on earnings

This creates a seamless flow from event detection → strategy creation → deployment.

How Traders Can Use This Feature​

Algo traders can use the Earnings Calendar to:

  • Identify stocks with upcoming results
  • Filter down to stocks in the F&O segment for option strategy planning
  • Check when a stock’s earnings date coincides with expiry, which may offer high-IV setups
  • Create earnings-based trading strategies quickly using the Trade shortcut
  • Avoid deploying live strategies on days with unexpected earnings, reducing unwanted risk
